Bernard's Birthday

Dedicated to Bernard Cribbins (1928-2022) who died on July 27, 2022

Bernard's Birthday

You were a talented British actor but sadly, not anymore.
If you hadn't died, today you would've turned ninety-four.
You starred in an episode of "Fawlty Towers" and "Dalziel and Pascoe".
Forty-four years ago, you starred in "The Adventures Of Picasso".
You starred in an episode of "Last Of The Summer Wine".
You starred in an episode of "Mogul" and "Space: 1999".
You starred in a short lived British sitcom titled "Cuffy".
After living a long life, you died at the age of ninety-three.
When you starred in Fawlty Towers, you beat up John Cleese.
Today would have been your birthday, may you Rest In Peace.

John G, I do talk properly, asshole. You will be blocked.

I was quoting Basil in that episode of Fawlty Towers.  One of my favorites.  :)

Apologies if I upset you; that was far from my intent.
