Hes a legend and he will be greatly missed! Awesome shows such as Porridge and Open all hours.. R.I.P Ronnie Barker :cry: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
How2PK Posted October 4, 2005 Share Posted October 4, 2005 His name sounds familliar, but I don't think I've seen any of his work. Although 76 isn't a bad age to go, it's still sad to see somebody go. Rest in peace. Signature by Maurice SendakWhen the stars make you drool just like a pasta fazool, that's amore!

Bubsa Posted October 4, 2005 Share Posted October 4, 2005 Man, this sucks. I love Porridge, Ronnie Barker was hilarious in it. Very sorely missed and it's nice to know he went peacefully. It's a goodnight from me and a goodnight from him. This is how much you all raised for charity. Thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rizla Posted October 4, 2005 Share Posted October 4, 2005 I wonder if Bo Selecta will still do the porridge parody after this... Kirk and Lars I could handle. At the same time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mercifull Posted October 5, 2005 Share Posted October 5, 2005 Did anyone else see the TV program about him last night? Was quite good. Im guessing that it was filmed and edited long before his death to get something this polished finished so quickly.

Mercifull Posted October 5, 2005 Share Posted October 5, 2005 No thats Bruce Forsithe. Ronnie Barker was the chubby one from the two ronnies.

Phil Posted October 5, 2005 Share Posted October 5, 2005 His sketches were funny when they were realeased and I think they will be funny for generations to come. For example the 'Four Candles' one. Here's one someone posted on another forum I visit. *Ronnie Barker sitting behind a desk* "Good evening. I am the president of the Loyal Society for the Relief of Suffers from Pismronunciation, for the relief of people who canÃÆââââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ã¢ââ¬Å¾Ã¢t say their worms correctly, or who use the wrong worms entirely, so that other people cannot underhand a bird they are spraying. ItÃÆââââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ã¢ââ¬Å¾Ã¢s just that you open your mouse, and the worms come turbling out in wuck a say that you [bleep] not what youÃÆââââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ã¢ââ¬Å¾Ã¢re thugging to be, and itÃÆââââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ã¢ââ¬Å¾Ã¢s very distressing. IÃÆââââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ã¢ââ¬Å¾Ã¢m always looing it, and it makes one feel umbumftorcacle, especially when one is going about oneÃÆââââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ã¢ââ¬Å¾Ã¢s diddly tasks. Slopping at the Sloopermarket, for instance. Only last wonk, I approached the chuckout point, and I shooed the ghoul behind the crash desk the contents of my trilly, and she said ÃÆââââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ãâ¦Ã¢â¬ÅAll right, granddad, shout ÃÆââââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ãâ¹Ãâem out.ÃÆââââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ãâà Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hobgoblin11 Posted October 5, 2005 Share Posted October 5, 2005 Ronnie Barker was a comic genius, and his death is a sad loss to comedy. He obviously had a great love of words, his work, I believe to be some of the most funny sketches thee ever existed. God rest his soul 99/99 Fletching, 99/99 Cooking, 96/99 Strength Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, that was an amasing thing about him and Ronnie Corbett: the way they could speak like that the whole time. I can hardly read some of those things aloud, let alone remember them correctly. deviantart account Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pete_the_Viscous Posted October 8, 2005 Share Posted October 8, 2005 I heard a nice tribute to him on the radio today. It was at the end of a Dead Ringers thing -- one of them did his mispronunciation speech thing, having adapted it into a tribute to him. deviantart account Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
