Nicholas Parsons RIP

Post by Dominic »

Sad news indeed. At 96 he had a very, very good innings and was still knocking out the excellent Just A Minute.

I saw him on stage as the Narrator in the Rocky Horror Picture Show. The best thing about him was that he didn't take himself too seriously.

A sad loss to entertainment, but when your time is up, go gracefully. A perfect gent. RIP Nicholas

Far more talented than people realised. Obviously as host of Just a Minute for over 50 years. But also Rocky Horror narrator (in fishnet tights), Sale of the Century, straight man to Arthur Haynes, the Comic Strip, Dr Who, host of Have I Got News for You, Benny Hill, thee list goes on.

I'm a huge fan and this is a sad sad loss.
