RIP Trigger

BBC News reports that Roger Lloyd Pack has died, aged 69. Definitely best known as Trigger in Only Fools & Horses, a magnificent role.

A magnificent role indeed - who can forget the "same" brush he had for all those years. Also him looking around when Del Boy fell through the bar hatch - genius stuff.

R.I.P

Great in the Vicar of Dibley too.  He was though a serious luvvy actor, and whilst he could play the comedy roles so well, he could also act magnificently on more 'serious' roles.

Really saddened to hear this on the lunchtime news.  Absolutely brilliant as Trigger, one of my favourite characters from a superb series.  And no age really at 69.  :(

RIP Roger.

Obviously the broom but probably my favourite, talking about names for Del & Raquel's baby:

Mike: What name have they decided on?

Trigger: If it's a girl they're calling it Sigourney after an actress, and if it's a boy they're naming him Rodney after Dave
