Very sad. :-(
He was a staple of a lot of very popular sitcoms of the 70's and 80's.

Thanks for the laughs Sam.

I also remember him in 'On The Up', but I suspect there won't be many of us who'd say that...
Watched the recent Porridge tribute series on GOLD, he was a fine part of a great ensemble cast. Also just a really great actor who made great work from some funny roles.
RIP

RIP Sam I don't think there are that many left alive of the both casts of porridge or 'Allo 'Allo. Loved him in Porridge.

He also had a distinguished career as a classical actor at the National Theatre and the Old Vic and appears to have been held in very high regard by his fellow actors with tributes being paid by Stephen Fry, Mark Gatiss, Robert Lindsey, Natalie Anderson and Colin Baker to name but a few.

RIP. I remember him as the illiterate Bunny Warren in 'Porridge'.
