From the coronavirus. So sad to hear this. The Goodies is one of my favourite comedies of all time.

I just saw this from a link to the BBC news site. So sad. He always looked so sweet and gentle. Sad

And apparently co-wrote the Four Yorkshiremen sketch, for which he should have had a medal.

Sad. I met him once as a child at a sports event and he seemed really nice. My dad told me to get his autograph and as he signed his name I (in embarrassing 8 year old style) said "Who's Tim Brooke-Taylor?". He laughed his head off and said "Who indeed!" Nice guy.

Loved him as a kid - really sad news ... amongst all the other terrifying and sad news!

Saw him doing I'm Sorry I Haven't A Clue live twice, including the tour that was current until everything blew up. Such a terrible waste of people, this disease.
