Who didn't love Tim Brooke-Taylor?
This guy...
You might think everyone loved Tim Brooke-Taylor.
But not so, the weekly Popbitch newsletter reveals, recounting a story from the 1980s of a young child who had been lured on to a family trip to Derbyshire with the promise of meeting a Goodie.

‘Nooooooo,’ the kid yelled. ‘The beardy one! The funny one!’
