Wolfie Posted February 1, 2019 Share Posted February 1, 2019 Comedian Jeremy Hardy, a regular on BBC Radio 4 panel shows like The News Quiz and I'm Sorry I Haven't A Clue, has died of cancer aged 57. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-47056671 I didn't know he was ill. He was always my favourite on The News Quiz and QI. Genuinely witty and intelligent bloke. A real shame. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyinLiverpool Posted February 1, 2019 Share Posted February 1, 2019 Went to see him once. Very funny. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stive Pesley Posted February 1, 2019 Share Posted February 1, 2019 Ah no - such a shame. I saw him years ago at the Derby Guildhall with Eddie Izzard as support (must have been late 80s?) I had a feeling something was up with him as he made some strange and partially incoherent comments on Twitter a couple of weeks back to Danny Baker about how he was dying The next day he apologised and said he was fine but had tweeted under the influence of medication or something Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BaaLocks Posted February 1, 2019 Share Posted February 1, 2019 Great comedian, great spokeman, great man. As someone else said, he used his comedy to change the world, not just to fill theatres. Too young. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carnero Posted February 3, 2019 Share Posted February 3, 2019 Perhaps we can organise a minutes applause at 57 minutes of the next Rams game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was that at Deepdale on Friday? I thought I heard a ripple (on telly). What was that all about? Anyone know? Sorry, probably should have asked in the matchday thread?

Stive Pesley Posted February 4, 2019 Share Posted February 4, 2019 http://isihac.net/jeremy-hardy/ Some of his excellent singing on I'm Sorry I Haven't A Clue is compiled here If you only listen to one, I'd recommend My Humps sung to the tune of I Vow To Thee My Country Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
