RIP Andrew Sachs

Qué?

still struggling with the search of him via youtube, so sad that i get russel brand every time, i hope he is happy now.

No idea he was as old as 86

Sad news.

An uncomfortable night's sleep for Brand and Ross hopefully, but more importantly RIP Mr Sachs and thanks for the laughs.

A very good narrator as well as an actor.

RIP Andrew Sachs.

People still going on about the Brand and Ross 'joke' .. unreal. Some very sensitive souls on here.


RIP Andrew Sachs.

Dementia....the biggest killer in the UK now.

He was 86, a great age to attain

His body may have been 86 crags, sadly his mind was less than that figure.

I'll assume you don't have daughter/grand daughter, If you think that was just a 'joke'

I have both. The 'joke' wasn't funny, imo, but Sachs probably just thought they were silly lads making crude comments about his stripper granddaughter, quite right as well, but I  doubt that it had much affect on him at all. Move on...

It's an extract from Sachs own book , you thick fÛck

Ross and Brand probably had the backing of most Spanish waiters who Sachs stereotyped them as dimwitted.

You believe things in autobiographys!

boy, you're dumber than I thought.

*autobiographies*

drop the y

****

Sachs made a few bob thanks to Brand and Ross... not forgetting his slapper granddaughter

like to see those two get some retrospective tho

Please remember this is a tribute thread to the late Andrew Sachs, people.

Ross and Brand two of a kind, immature and in love with themselves.

Aka, you forgot to add talentless.

TBF G2D that's his right.

Then he can post it to himself cos i for one don't want to read his ****. I wouldn't have read that one only someone else posted his diatribe..

Stopped watching Ross after he had his good pal Geri Halliwell on and praised her latest record adding "and you've got a lovely voice".

That would mean, realistically, at the very least, you are in your late 40's, early 50's crags?, like to confirm this old man?

H ewould have made a good spinmeister for Blair instead of the Burnley coont he got..

Mrs. Richards: What is going on here? I ask him for my room, and he tells me the manager's a "Mr Watt," aged forty.
Manuel: No, no. Fawlty.
Mrs. Richards: Faulty? What's wrong with him?
Polly: It's all right, Mrs. Richards. He's from Barcelona.
Mrs. Richards: The manager's from Barcelona?
Manuel: No, no. He's from, er, Swan



sad news

crags got his bus pass long time ago
got picture of annie inside

Basil the Rat   
Terry: Look: all kitchens are filthy, Mr. Fawlty. In fact, the better the kitchen, the filthier it is. Have you ever read George Orwell's experiences at Maxim's in Paris?
Basil: No. Do you have a copy? I'll read it out in court!



Manuel: I say to man in shop "Is rat." He say "No, no, no. Is a special kind of hamster. Is filigree Siberian hamster." Only one in shop. He make special price: only five pound.
Basil: Have you ever heard of the bubonic plague, Manuel? It was very popular here at one time. A lot of pedigree hamsters came over on ships from Siberia.

Cap'n, wheres ya been? Supping grizzly juice down the Co-Op?

had me benefits cut Lidl junkie these days

hope your well btw

Who among us, having taken drink, hasn't said "I ham from Barthelona" at one time or another? Respect. But I am bloody surprised he was 86.

A hammer sandwich?

Yeah RIP I think in total there were only about 12 episodes of Fawlty Towers

proof

Not a bother mucker and i hope i find ye the same..

Should half-decent in Lidl seeing as they are Kraut owned.. Biggest beer drinkers in the world Krauts aren't they, or is that the rinky dinks?

Just 12.  Sadly Mrs Fawlty has dementia, I believe.  'Basil' has been given a good kicking by the media for recently stating he wished his ex-wives were all dead - non-painfully, to give him credit.  Almost afraid to ask how Connie Booth is doing.

only jesting re lidl/benefits

can't be bothered lately getting too old and liverpool keep winning

night all gl

Nite mucker..

****, btw..

silent movie star in fawlty towers...

The daily mail has Andrew Sach's death on front page, but ironically to left their main headline is about about migrant numbers hitting new record.
They don't do irony do they ?

Remember how well and dignified he was during the whole thing with Russell Brand, saying how bemused he was and how didn't hold anything against him. Seemed a very humble man.

Although they only made 12 episodes, I still think he is one of the more well loved and memorable British comedy characters (or Spanish).

RIP Fella

sachs only regret in life was "not punching Jonathon ross"

ross and that beardie bloke have no talent. hay completely misjudged the nations reaction to upsetting what we would call a "national treasure". Hate that phrase and the way its used nowadays, but the Manuel character and the way he played it was so good. Watched it last night at laughed out loud. Don't find myself doing that much nowadays. RIP Andrew. Thanks

"they"

Haven't watched an episode of Fawlty Towers for some time, but it was great watching that one the BBC put on at 7-30 last night. Pure comedy Gold. RIP Andrew Sachs

all he used to say was ahh i know nothing r.i.p

Rest in Peace my dear old friend.
