At least he went out on a laugh. A comic couldn’t ask for a better ending

Watched this live. Knew something was amiss and the break came on then Gee and Dennis did their act. News came on after show and said he was dead.

Poor Les too, that’s a lot of trauma to witness, let alone having to put up with Amanda Holden

I remember watching this. We saw him slump then it cut to an ad break.
My family all looked at each other thinking it was a strange moment.
