A good age and gave me a few laughs - so RIP Norman.

RIP too. He left behind a huge comic legacy.

I'm embarrassed to say I'd never heard of him before but knowing who he is a great talent.

RIP.

I've never heard of him either but 93 is a good innings as they say, and anyone who wrote any of the Carry On films bar the rubbish ones like Columbus/Emmannuelle were very talented.

They were never really "the stars" like writers are nowadays. Largely unknown although I subsequently became aware of Talbot Rothwell.

I only knew of Talbot Rothwell because he was a very good friend of Peter Butterworth.
