TV presenter and comedian Bill Oddie dies at 85
bbc.co.ukI grew up on The Goodies. Long time ago now, but I think it shaped my impression of comedy as much as Monty Python.
A more recent favorite comedy series is The Mighty Boosh, who list The Goodies as a strong influence.
Vale Bill Oddie, thank you for what you provided.
IIRC ... everybody and their dog seemed to cover Bill Oddie's Wild Thing https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uMxFYfXCe4Y
uh, The Goodies covered The Troggs' Wild Thing: https://youtu.be/gSWInYFVksg
He put twitching (bird watching) on the map.
The Goodies always seemed like a parallel Monty Python.
Barry Took brought together the team for Monty Python.
