Thought that was rod hull?

A bit of H-T diversion but here you go: -

"On 17 March 1999, Hull climbed onto the roof of his bungalow, named Shepherd's Cottage, in Winchelsea, near Rye, Sussex, to adjust his television aerial during the second leg of the Champions League quarter final football match between Internazionale and Manchester United at the San Siro. It was a procedure he carried out on a regular basis, as shown in home video footage included in the 2003 documentary Rod Hull: A Bird in the Hand.[10] In his attempt to improve reception, he slipped from the roof and fell through an adjoining greenhouse. The 63-year-old entertainer suffered a severe skull fracture and chest injuries. He was pronounced dead on arrival at Conquest Hospital in Hastings."
