  Speaking from their Thames Ditton home in Queen’s Road, Pamela, his wife of almost two decades, said he would have been proud of his final take.
  
  She said: “Trevor was up on our allotment, which he loved. He was a comic actor, and to die on top of the shed with a hammer in his hand – talk about a wonderful exit for a comic actor.
  
  “I’m afraid the way he died was straight out of Last of the Summer Wine. “ 
  
  
  
  Just imagine walking past some allotments and seeing someone you presumed was Mr. Lucas's dad fixing his shed, when he was well!
  
  I think this is high octane duffing. Top marks to his wife for seeing the funny side of this sad news, and all the best to her at this time.

  Actually, Rod Hull didn't die on a roof; he died because he came down from the roof much faster than he intended. He was, like Mr Bannister, fixing something on the roof: he was adjusting his TV aerial. Mr Hull lived not very far from me but I never saw him or Emu out shopping.
