Song lyricist Myles Rudge has died at the age of 81.

Not a well-known name by any means but his song words include Hole in the Ground and Right Said Fred, hits for Bernard Cribbins in the early 60s.

But his Telegraph obituary has much more to say than just this and is well worth a read if the Sixties are your thing.

Both Hole in the Ground and Right Said Fred have stood the test of time, and still bring a smile to the faces of members of the baby boomer generation,


I don't know about a smile, when I heard "Right Said Fred" recently, I was laughing out loud! Laughing
Nice to have it confirmed that it was actually a piano after all these years.

Thanks for all the laughs Myles...
