    When you look at the various memes and theories and stories that came out of that he really was an amazing character (as in personality not that he was made up.)

    What a character! Probably an absolute nightmare to live with but the world would poorer without his kind.
    I remember this well and the bit where he shouts, "get your hand off my penis".

    The good part of social media and online content is there are 1000s of funny videos available at the drop of a hat.  

    This one makes my top ten, brilliant.  RIP that man.

    A man who has solely bought me joy and amusement. My mate Martin does a great impression of him and greets me with "take your hand off my penis" when we see each other in the pub to a lot of blank and confused faces

    Will we have a RIP when Matt Southall croaks it? He was articulate as well.

    Ahhh - I see that you know your judo well... 

    For some reason, my favourite bit of the clip is when they're shoving him in the car and he shouts out 'tata and farewell'

    🤣

    Absolute character, RIP

    Mine is a toss up between "You're under arrest", 'I'm under a what?!', and 'Ooh, that's a nice headlock sir!"

    Was he?  "Super dooper deal phone" doesn't have the same ring to it.

    I always imagined Viewfinder saying 'There you are ValleyGary, you "coach" children near Dartford and never actually go to The Valley. And you are the first to pipe up with your ignorant bile - kill Communists, hang out the St George's flag, and shoot anyone who talks to your disabled mother. You are an idiot' in exactly this guy's voice.

    I never go out for a Chinese takeaway. I do however occasionally partake of a succulent Chinese meal.

    Might be my immaturity but I think of that quote before the succulent Chinese meal
