Apparently he has died from Covid-19

I don't really remember him from The Goodies but I did like him on I'm sorry I haven't a clue.

Sad really sad. Met him a few times as a child when he played cricket and was of the Goodies generation.

I loved him in the goodies too. The funniest thing I ever saw him do though was the character he played in the original Charlie & The choc factory. Where he told the computer told him "exactly what he could do with a life times supply of chocolate"

RIP Tim Thanks
Thanks for the memories.

This news has hit too close to home for me, our last outing to the theatre was to see him in I'm Sorry I Haven't a Clue on the 15th March :-o He was on fine form and lots of the jokes were about the virus and impeding shutdown.

Aw sad news. For absolutely donkey's years I thought his name was, Timbrook Taylor. Something to do with the way The Goodies was introduced. I always thought, that is a funny name to give your child...

Very sad. I mainly remember him from The Goodies, with Graeme Garden and Bill Oddie. That was a staple of my childhood.

Sympathy for his family and friends at this time.

'Timbrook Taylor'

That's how it's always said in my head as well!

Remember the goodies a bit, I was young though. Something about nose voles comes to mind!

So sad. I loved The Goodies in the early 70s and am a diehard ISIHAC fan. Condolences to his family.
