Well, all bad things come in threes. Between the attack, the election and his passing, that's our lot. Assuming Trump doesn't wing his way here on Friday.
Poor Gromit.

I just heard this on the news- I used to watch Last of the Summer Wine many, many years ago and I never made the connection with W&G. Much like with Christopher Lee in Golden Gun. I never did find out how Gromit could eat without a mouth!

I always wondered how Gromit had pockets. Or how he could be so damn expressive with just ears and an eyebrow.EnterpriseSovereign wrote:I just heard this on the news- I used to watch Last of the Summer Wine many, many years ago and I never made the connection with W&G.

Oh no.
On the other hand I had no idea he's reached 96.

Yes. At least he didn't die young.
Rest in Peace.

Well, rest in piece.

Turns out that a five way cross over between It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia, the Ali G Show, Fargo, Idiocracy and Veep is a lot less funny when you're actually living in it.
