Has finally 'rocked on' RIP comedy double act Cannon and Ball, has died at the age of 76, his manager has confirmed. His death comes after the actor and comedian tested positive for Covid-19. Ball was one half of the comedy duo alongside his long-time friend and colleague Tommy Cannon. He also starred in several sitcoms including Not Going Out, Last of the Summer Wine, Benidorm and Heartbeat. Leading the tributes, Cannon said: "Rock on, my good friend, I can't believe this, I'm devastated." His wife Yvonne added: "I will always miss him, he was so joyful, full of fun and mischievous."

This operation, will make the 'Charge Of The Light Brigade' seem like a simple military exercise. |

Never liked Cannon and Ball but post that I thought he did some good stuff. I loved him as the dodgy father in Not Going Out. RIP

This one with Status Quo still makes me smile.
Living down here does have some advantages. At least you can see them cry. |

Maybe you're thinking about a member of another 80's "comedy" duo. Eddie Large?
