RIP Ronnie. I used to love him in 'Sorry' and his stories in his chair.

I used to love his stories in the chair, too.  And the "fork 'andles" sketch - or was it "4 candles"? 
 :'(

We'll all miss him.. however, I've just found this page of his jokes.

I liked these but also when the Two Ronnies dressed up and danced with professional dancers and made fun of it

I also read that there were doubts his wife would be able to attend as she was admitted to hospital over the weekend with a health scare but a family friend has confirmed she will now attend.
