Passed this morning at 83. A very, very funny man and a talented actor. None of the radio satire shows would have happened with the trailblazing 'Huddlines'. RIP

Surely there was "Round the Horne" before that.

A man with an encyclopaedic knowledge of the music halls who will be greatly missed.

Round the Horne was hardly satirical although it did touch on some risque areas. The New Huddlines was a precursor to series like The News Quiz (which it predated by two years) Dead Ringers and Newsjack

Roy Hudd was such an amazing talent! R.I.P.
