Oh this is so sad Tiggs, never a great lover of Little and Large but what an awful way to end a career,
RIP and thoughts are with his family

[Peter Pedant]

Naughty boy here .....

a spokesman for the family said - this will leave a large gap in the society of British comedians - which may be difficult to fill

[naomi24]

78 - in hospital with heart failure - hmmm. Sad though. He made me laugh.

[Ken4155]

Sad news, but didn't his career end many years ago due to heart problems?
RIP

[Peter Pedant]

I am a sad donkey ( true)

[tiggerblue10]

Sad indeed Bobbi :o(

"He had been suffering with heart failure and unfortunately, whilst in hospital, contracted the coronavirus, which his heart was sadly not strong enough to fight. "

Contracted it in hospital...…..so did he die of heartfailure or covid 19?

[Zacs-Master]

Heart failure exacerbated by C-19.

R.I.P. Eddie.

[andy-hughes]

I would never wish any ill to anyone, and I do offer my sympathies, albeit unseen, to his family - but I personally found Little And Large to be two of the unfunniest people ever seen on TV, a crown they shared with Mike and Bernie Winters.

[iluvmargie]

I agree about Mike and Bernie Winters, but I thought Sid and Eddie had more of a rapport and were funny when you saw them live. Wouldn't cut the mustard today though.

I was sad to hear this, RIP Eddie.

I'm not really familiar with him, but it's just a bit worrying if he contracted covid in hospital.
