I met him a couple of times and attended his daughters wedding. According to his wife his least favourite word of all was ‘knobcheese’. 
A decent and principled man and a sad loss.

RIP Norman Gimbel - the man that put words to many famous tunes
That’s sad. An early 3020 was my first HiFi amplifier.

Oh, that’s a shame. Played some great parts.
Certainly did, Ab fab really gave her career a resurgance but she was in so many light entertainment shows on TV radio and film
Another of the comedy greats passes away. Very sad, but what a career and obviously a life well lived.

I grew up on Terry and June. She was always great in the Carry On roles as well. RIP.

Amazing to think her first professional acting role was in 1944
