Thanks to Laura for these on the subject of Jeremy Beadle’s death.

On Saturday nights with you’ve been framed
Around all of Britain the laughs you gained
With game for a Laugh and Beadles about
You were a great entertainer that no won can doubt

The monies you raised all for a good cause
Lets not deny that you deserve around of Applause
You battled with poor health in the recent years
And people round the world will be shedding their tears

So i salute you Mr Beadle for being a Pro
That of which i think everybody does know

Goodbye.. Rest in Peace
Dan B, Northampton

Like watching a bloke with advanced Parkinson disease trying to juggle.

He was a little man with a big heart. Like mozart his real genius will only be appreciated many years after his passing. RIP Jeremy you will be missed xxx

One day his “Game For a Laugh in Eb Minor” (K615) will be recognised as the classic it truly is.

    Dan B for Poet Laureate.

    Dan. Get a grip. Even Beedle himself would have felt the urge to knock you round a pub car park with an iron bar for that dirge.

    That poem is amazing.

    Poor, poor, poor
    poor, poor, poor
    poor, Jeremy.

    Oh so poor, dear
    Jeremy.

    Thou art taken from us
    And will, bury-ed in the ground,
    Wither like thine mock hand.

    One hopeth Heaven
    Is alive
    With
    Video
    Replays
    Of
    Children
    Falling
    Off
    Things
    Hilariously.

    How dare you mock my Jeremy Beadle poem.
    I adored the man though I didn’t know ‘im
    While time will pass just like the sand
    I’ll never forget his tiny hand

    Ignoring for the second the alarming comparison of the two, Mozart was sort of appreciated when he was alive. Sort of…a lot like. In fact, from about the age of 4. Have a bit of that Beadle! Four years old!

    The mozart comparison is the funniest thing ever that i ever read on the interweb ever, me and the wife were gigglin like kiddies over that.

    Crikey. That’s worse than Vogon poetry. Can we ban these pigeon’s minges from rhyming?

    Hate to spoil the fun but Bill Ingram is the creation I (relatively Normal Person and SYB reader) use when I’m messing about on HYS.

    (You should see the ones they didn’t publish.)

    Hang on, if both of the HYS quotes in this entry were made up by Speak You’re Branes readers, how can we be sure ANY of them are real anymore?

    Is this real???

    Fuck me, again.
    I left the UK in 1988, clearly every single English teacher was summarily executed the day after I left. Why wasn’t I told?
    Either that or Dan B is a complete noblik who was deliberately taught to write in that “Style”.
    If it is the latter he should immediately find all his old language teachers and kill them.
