Edited on Sat Oct-22-11 05:12 AM by dipsydoodle
He was 100 years old. Just breaking - http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-15414606.

Posted for the benefit of those amongst us who remember the Billy Cotton Band Show.

1. That would be "Ros" DD.
Not being pedantic. It's just that I remember being intrigued by the missing "s" as a kid. The Hispanic awareness came later ...

I was never into his music (I'd probably like it better now) but he always struck me as a really nice bloke. Glad he enjoyed a good innings.

May he sleep well.
