 Bob Godfrey, creator of Roobarb and Henry's Cat (amongst others) has passed away: http://www.bfi.org.uk/news/bob-godfrey-1921-2013

Such a shame to have happened so close to Richard Briers dying only a few days ago.

Sad news, I loved Roobarb and especially Henry's Cat when I was a nipper. I loved the design of Henry's Cat, with the word 'miiow' spelled out on his face, it was pretty clever and something I didn't notice until later in life. I liked Godfrey's narration on the show too, it was witty and smart.

RIP.

 His biographic film of Brunel was great and well worth the Oscar.
