Re: Bob Spiers RIP

A legendary name who many will recognise from so many TV programmes that have brought us tears of laughter over the years

RIP Bob


A sad coincidence, this morning I ordered The Goodies (4-disc BBC boxset made up of the separate "At Last" and "At Last...A Second Helping" releases) for £7.99 from HMV.com, and it shipped within a few hours
Prices: The Goodies DVD
