Very sorry to hear of the passing of Barry Patton Elliot/Chuckle. Writing their last 4 series was one of the happiest times of my writing life. Four years of non-stop fun. They were consummate performers, with a knowledge of sight-gags second to none. RIP pic.twitter.com/YZK4iFMlTL

Ah Barry Chuckle has died. If you’re in your 30s and you don’t move furniture around the house with your partner saying “to me, to you” you’re doing life wrong.

RIP Barry Chuckle. The hours spent laughing with you and your brother instead of doing my homework as a kid was well worth it. pic.twitter.com/i9qWseiKKi

RIP Barry Chuckle, a man who elevated Daftness into high art to stand alongside Opera. And tickle it.

Gutted about Barry Chuckle…
I once pointed at him in Oxford Circus and shouted “To Me” he pointed back and said “Shut up”

R.I.P. Barry Chuckle. He was a big part of my childhood and I’m sure many others.
