One of life's honestly funny people. Just being him was a joy to watch and listen to.
I guess that's "goodnight from him"
RIP.

He came across as such a pleasant chap as well as being funny.

Good-bye from a fellow alumni.
Bet there's more than fork-handles at the funeral.

I know he had a very long career with so many memorable moments. But every time I hear his name I always think of him in Peter Kay's Amarillo comic relief video. Remember he took a stumble off the treadmill? Peter Kay & Parky were in stitches.
RIP lil Ronnie. Your talent will be missed.

Such a sad loss, yet another amazing talent i grew up with sadly gone
Had the pleasure of meeting and chatting to both Ronnies - at different times:
30 odd years ago at Barker's Emporium in Chipping Norton. (At the time I didn't know he was the proprietor so I got a bit of a shock when he appeared beside me and blethered away!) A modest man with no side.
...and Corbett a dozen or so years ago when he appeared at Skippers Bistro in sunny Leith, then run by his brother Alan. (A favourite haunt of mine at the time.) RC was certainly more outgoing with a theatrical air but nonetheless a great guy.

I guess there are a few Dealerships out there that can identify with it!

Yes!
I'd be really interested to hear [honestly] what the younger people on here think of this; silly and outdated or still funny, maybe on a scale of 1 - 10....?

I don't think so. But TBH I think it's a generation thing. The comedians our younger generation are watching now will be missed when the time comes I'm sure.
Our daughter adores the current comedians. When she is my age and one of them passes away she'll have the same great memories of watching them with her mum and dad just like you have with yours.
Hope that made sense.
