Re: RIP John Noakes
 

Very saddened to hear of his passing as he bought so many wonderful memories to many of us.:(

Re: RIP John Noakes
 

I always remember him saying get down Shep and for some reason I would end giggling away at this, to me he was the best presenter on Blue Peter.

RIP John Noakes

Re: RIP John Noakes
 

In my mind he has never grown old, hearing this sad news has reminded me of what a good presenter he was and how much I enjoyed watching his exploits.

RIP Noaksey.

Part of my childhood has died :(

RIP..Part of my childhood gone..

Re: RIP John Noakes
 

Probably because there was a comedy record that someone brought out. The only lyrics that I can remember are "get down Shep, do as you're told sit down". Not sure if it was John Noakes saying it or an impressionist.

It was the Barron Knights. Pretty sure they did all the impersonations on their own records.
