I used to laugh when the contestants said Can I Have A "P" Please Bob.

Bob Holness always came across as a gentleman, rest in peace Bob.

By the way that's the first celebrity death this year,. doesn't take long to start does it?

We were sorry to hear of Bob Holness passing.
He was a lovely man. He and his wife Mary came and organised a Dutch Auction at one of our sales for Autistic Children.
R.I.P. Bob Holness.
