"Being Canadian, I had no idea who Jeremy Beadle was, but, reading the obituary, I find him to have been a courageous man who had to put up with far more cruelty than he perhaps deserved. To the columnists who were cruel to him, all I can say is: what goes around, comes around."
Fine words. I mean probably not appropriate for the obituary of a man who played a million practical jokes but still...

I hope they re-run some of his old stuff.
Good on him for raising all that charity money too
