Tom and Barbara were the perfect couple

- No they weren't!
  
  Tom was a selfish prick who dragged the too nice for her own good Barbara along with him on his deluded plans, only to then spend all of his time flirting with the next door neighbour. Meanwhile Jerry is trapped in a loveless marriage and harbours secret affections for sweet Barbara who lives next door.
  
  The whole programme was a dark tragedy about the failings of middle class life.

Bless him - good actor, seemed like a good egg

Watched him last week in Cockneys vs Zombies: he was in the slowest chase scene ever - got out of his deckchair and hobbled across the garden on his zimmer frame whilst being 'chased' by zombies.

  that's in my 'to watch' pile. I'll put it to the top of the stack as a mark of respect. a resounding tribute, i think you'll agree.

I had an old cricket coach called Ron who looked like Richard Briers

Think Ron died recently too. Maybe they were the same person. RIP Ron / Richard.
