Really sad to hear that Patricia Routledge has passed away. A fantastic actress best known for Keeping Up Appearances. Here she is in pure Hyacinth mode keeping it under control for British Gas in 1992. RIP Patricia.

Saddened to hear of the death of Only Fools actor Patrick Murray aka Mickey Pearce. Patrick appeared in loads of adverts but I think this one for Woolworth with Cliff Richard sums him up best. RIP Pat
