Sir Jimmy young dies at the age of 95 (21 September 1921 – 7 November 2016)

TTFN Sir Jimmy, I enjoyed your radio shows

And least Sir Tel, can continue the banter now...

Blimey, thought he'd popped off years ago!

He retired in 2002 ( I think it was) and kinda dropped off the radar after that.

I used to like listening to Jimmy. A good age, but still sad for his family.

(crikey it doesn't seem like it was 14 yrs since he was last ont' wireless)

One of those people that you're never really sure if they're alive or not. I thought he'd died years back too tbh.

See Clive Dunn has gone too.

RIP to both.

And Kirk Douglas is still alive. 100 next month.

See Clive Dunn has gone too.

He went 4 years ago

 

[boogie man]

He went 4 years ago

You're right he did! I had to google him to find that out though...proves my point about not being sure if people are dead or not. Wonder why my wife told me he died yesterday then? One of us is cracking up.

It'l be Tony Hart all over again next.

It got shared on Facebook again yesterday. For some reason, this seems to happen rather often.

It'l be Tony Hart all over again next.

That one seems almost an annual event
