RIP Keith Harris, bye bye Orville

So sad to see that Keith Harris has died, he was only 67. He is a large part of my memories of Miss Osc's childhood - she loved Orville, had her own Orville (we still have it) and we saw them in Blackpool in 1983. Sad to say that I don't think he would be so successful today, such innocent entertainment does not seem to be offered to children now. He seems to have been a nice genuine man too. Makes me nostalgic for great all-round entertainment shows like Summertime Special.

It is sad, and 67 isn't much of an age xxxx
