Just heard on the news he's died. He composed and MD'd many of the
most famous BBC comedy show signature tunes - my favourite being Last
of the Summer Wine, and Yes, Minister. He had an uncanny knack of
making his music tell the basics of the situation. And was a true
gentleman. Will be much missed.


And his theme tune for "Some Mothers do 'ave 'em" was the morse code for
"Some Mothers do 'ave 'em".
