Very rarely has a legend of comedy died with so little recognition. He's someone who simply stopped getting the wide acknowledgement he deserves from generations younger than his. I believe this and other similar stories are down to a massive cultural decline in appreciation of comedy but that's a massive thing I could go on for hours on that I won't bore anyone with here. Suffice it to say, a legend is gone.
