National Treasures

Two comedians recently deceased should be marked.

Ronnie Corbett was perhaps lost both literally and figuratively in the shadow of his accomplice Ronnie Barker, but Corbett was a real trooper in his own right. My favourite joke involved his grandfather having died at the Battle of the Little Big Horn - 'He wasn't involved but he was camping in the next valley and went over to complain about the noise.' National treasure.

Victoria Wood was beautifully funny. We had the pleasure of seeing her live many years ago and she was side-splitting. Bloody, bloody clever as well. National treasure.

There's plenty of both of them on that YouTube so go on, knock yourself out.
