Ronnie Corbett RIP

General


Ronnie Barker was funnier, but Ronnie Corbett was his perfect partner in comedy. They were at the top of their trade in the 1970s and 1980s and were probably more recognizable and just as loved as any other British celebrities during that era.

Do you not have any fond memories of this man who has died, is that what has prompted this comment?

"Fork Handles" was, I think, one of the best.

The Two Ronnies were far superior to Morecambe & Wise in my opinion and Corbett's
"silliness" was the perfect foil to Barker's intellectual wit and endless punning.
