Absolutely gutted. He was a genius. Possibly the sharpest Australian comic of all time.
Can’t believe it. Surely this is just one of his bits and he turns up somewhere tomorrow cracking gags.

He’s claimed as an Aussie.
Can I also suggest that any funeral procession be “about” 100 metres long? He would dig that enormously.

The character he portrayed in The Games is still burned into my brain approaching 20 years later.
