Before I start can I just say that I don't mean to upset anyone if they think this forum post is too soon, but I've been thinking about this for a while now and I need to get this off my chest. As I'm writing this I'm listening to the Holidays commentary. Listening to this commentary now, I've realised that now there won't any new commentaries, documentaries or audible specials. I find this extremely saddening, as I was thinking that finally The Goodies get that 1 last hurrah they never got from the beeb, albeit with audible. We can only dream now though what might have been. For years all my friends have taunted me for watching The Goodies and repeatedly stating that it is (And always will be) my favourite TV show. Even with the news of Tim leaving us, I still expected to receive some cruel insults from said friends over this dreadful loss, but I was surprised to find that one friend kindly messaged me stating that Tim had passed and that even he thought it was sad. Even from my other friends there was a slight mention of it, but no cruel insults just, ''I can see why you found The Goodies funny''. This made me realise that surprisingly all my friends not only a) Understood the deep loss felt by me and other fans over the loss of Tim and b) When it came down to it, they found The Goodies and thus Tim funny too, although they never wanted to tell me this before. This made me also realise, that the loss of Tim was felt by everyone in some way. I think that's how it should be. Tim was a great actor, comedian, ''stuntman'' and above all a kind man. The way he would stay behind at ISIHAC recording sessions to sign countless autographs and pose for endless ''selfies'' while the others were in their taxi waiting for Tim to finish greeting and thanking everyone for their love and support of the show really endears him to me. Tim has always been my favourite on screen Goodie and stories like these make him my favourite real life Goodie too (No offence to Graeme and Bill). All in all Tim was a great person both on and off screen, and in my opinion should go down in history (Along with Graeme and Bill) as one of the comedy industry's best performers. Thank you Tim for everything. |
