Oh my god he was awesome. I loved his TV shows but seeing him live (mainly at the Oasis centre in Swindon) added a whole new level of amazing. The classic sketches: * Magic Roundabout * The loony on the bus * Dating the rich girl with the family dog that keeps humping his leg (kick his balls! No, no, the ones on the lawn) Good times - Hovis bread advert.
I do remember these ads with very fond memories. I got misty eyed watching these. However, I think the whole "he were great baker were our dad" was actually part of a Grumbleweeds routine, parodying the Hovis ads. They were a very funny band/group/team, and me mum and dad took me to our of their shows when I graduated from the Polytechnic of Wales in 1976.
