Always sad to here that someone has died, especially someone who brought entertainment to people's lives, but I don't think he'll get much sympathy from the UK people, as he's became very annoying.

He was in a few adverts that coined catchphrases, never annoyed me. He was a decent director and seemed a decent bloke. Farewell!
