:( Being able to watch "The Two Ronnies" was a privelege when I was at school, and one we relished every Saturday.

So long, and thanks for all the laughs.

Sad news.
Ronnie Barker was a great comic actor.
No matter how many times I see a re-run of 'Porridge' or 'Open all hours',I always get a laugh.

A great shame. What do you think they'll put on the coffin? Four candles or....
May the joy of music be ever thine.

Yep. Quite a funny bloke.

Good job, Ronnie.
