Used to live in my home town of Eastbourne for many years. Often used to see him around town.
Bless him, part of many peoples childhood and youth. Makes you realise your own mortality a little more.

A truly lovely man who I was pleased to have regular contact with back in the 70s. Absolute gentleman and so, so modest. RIP

The word 'legend' is used far too often, Brian fits that bill of a true legend.
RIP George

RIP Brian. A true great.
Married a yellow-coat much younger than himself if I remember. The little tinker.

Legend is a word that gets bandied around far too much, but had it not been for aforementioned death of Yootha Joyce he would have been right up there as a sit com icon, with Barker and Jason.
Met his wife, Linda Regan, herself a Hi Di Hi Yellow Coat, some years ago, a lovely lady. They clearly had a very happy and loving marriage.
RIP.

Quite a testament to his acting ability that we can remember his most famous character George from a show that aired so long ago. You can just see that look on his face when he was getting told off by Yootha Joyce. Even now you hear people describe some couples as just like ' George and Mildred '

Sad, I used to see him going to Shortlands station near Bromley to buy his newspaper every morning when I lived there around 10 years ago.
Loved his part in Booze Cruise (TWAT)
