RiP indeed.

One of a kind.

Mark Commode is a pale shadow, in comparison.

I hesitate to echo his famous ejaculation "... and why not?"

 

[Lazarus]

It appears you've ejaculated twice.

A remarkable achievement.

 

[Llew]

Duplicate removed. Only one ejaculation intended, and that being the less-used meaning

Ah crap - used to watch him on Sky Movies back in the day!

Not seen on terrestrial TV since he took Murdoch's shilling he still had a column in the Radio Times. I wonder how many have been written in advance and whether they will be published.

RIP Barry.

RIP Barry

A stalwart of the BBC evenings, his IMDB content was particularly difficult to categorise with the name of the programme changing each year.

Kermode isn't too bad a reviewer imo, and is streets ahead of Jonathan Ross.
