    We've heard our last "Diiiii heard that!"

    Les Lye, best known in the U.S. for his role as Ross on You Can't Do That On Television, died yesterday. He was 84.

    Guess Heaven needed a few Barth Burgers.

    Holy crap, I wouldn't have remembered his name....but this just made me really sad. Which probably says something about me.

    RIP, Barth. Who do you think's in the burgers?

    Wow, nice pull for an RIP thread. I forget what channel that show was on but it seemed like a real find to get it, back in the ancient mid-80s.

    Didn't realize it was Barth who did until someone changed the thread.

    My favorite show growing up.

    What's in the Burgers?
