Trigger dead.

Got something to say, but it's not classic related? Here's the place to discuss. Also includes the once ever-so-popular word association thread... (although we've had to start from scratch with it - sorry!)

Trigger dead.

#1 Post by Martin Evans »

Roger Lloyd-Pack has gone to the great stage in the sky :cry: . Although not one of the Trotter family of main characters, Trigger really added to the comedy of Only Fools and Horses. Of course his referring to Rodney as Dave is what we all remember and Trigger's broom is legendary - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s1VNNbSYdt0 (Sorry about all the crap) but for me one of his best scenes was http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3O8SgaDOock :lol: :lol: :lol: . Cheers Trigg, for lots of laughs :!:

Funnily enough, I had a boxed set of OF&H DVDs for Christmas :D .

Very sad news, and whilst he'll always be Trigg, lets not forget Owen Newitt in Vicar of Dibley too.

It's funny, a chap I used to know got the nickname Trigger, as every time he saw me, he'd say "Alright Dave?"

Thanks for all the laughs Roger :)

Very sad indeed. I'm only acquainted with Lloyd-Pack through OFAH,and he was hilarious then,only because I'm similar,I'm always getting the names of people wrong

Liked a Jensen in a Profs episode too ;)

And I'm sure he'd even laugh at this :)

I also know what the Devil looks like but I don't want to cause Terry to buy another new screen ;) :?:

Nah, he's just a very naughty boy who had a dump in his desk and set your mate Gordon up for the blame.

I caught a couple of Roger Lloyd-Pack's appearances with the RSC during one of their Theatre Royal seasons and sadly, I couldn't get Trigger out of my mind but then neither could most of the audience who failed to put the man off his balance by yelling such things as "Fa's yer brush, Trigger?" during the quietest parts of the plays. Ever the pro, he managed to fit in a sly smile without compromising his task.
:D
