RIP John.

Yeah, not long heard this.
Very sad. Such a great deadpan presence. Except when he was corpsing like mad in the back of the Victor Meldrew driven Jag as it careered through a field due to the presence of a bee in the car!
RIP John

A brilliant satirist, terrific comedian, and a very, very good actor too.
RIP John Bird

A very funny comedian, and great satirist and actor in many roles - worked together for many years so well with John Fortune and then also with Rory Bremner, RIP John Bird

I must admit to not watching much of John's work but the few segments I have seen were very good.
R.I.P. John

I remember him as Dingo Wucker in Filthy Rich & Catflap, amongst other things.

I enjoyed Bremner, Bird and Fortune in the 00's and have seen bits and pieces of John's other work too.  RIP John thanks for your contribution to satire and comedy. |
