Yes, gone too. He did die of Coronavirus ☹️

RIP. You were one of the good guys... oh, sorry, I mean Goodies.

Only found out after his death that he wrote (or at least co-wrote) the famous Four Yorkshiremen sketch. I was discussing with Munki on Twitter how I always thought T-BT was younger than he was. I considered him to be a generation behind the Python’s rather than the contemporary (and collaborator) he was.

One of the funniest memories of my childhood was watching The Goodies and the Beanstalk. Not sure I can deal with my nostalgia being challenged but I’ve found it online:

A good ten years older than I'd've guessed he was. It was always good to hear him on anything he popped up on, and as DJ says he'd become part of the ISIHAC establishment. The links posted are all 8-)
