He also wrote and illustrated the Elmer The Patchwork Elephant books and Not Now, Bernard which were staples of my childhood. 87 is a heck of an innings, as they say, but still. Rest in Peace.

The animated Mr Benn was a genuine part of my childhood. RIP.

Mr. Benn is one of those classic 70s UK kids shows that only made a dozen or so episodes, yet were repeated almost on an infinite loop and struck a chord with a new set of kids on each airing. Like Bagpuss, The Flumps and Bod to name a few, if you were a kid in the UK in the last quarter of the 20th century, chances are these shows were a big part of your childhood. RIP
