Comedy legend Ronnie Barker dies:

British TV comedy actor Ronnie Barker, who starred in Porridge and The Two Ronnies, has died aged 76.

Lorna and I were doing the “four candles/fork handles” sketch the other day, and commenting on Barker combined skill as a writer and a performer. He’ll be terribly missed.
