I was fortunate enough to work with Geoff when i was with the Royal Shakespear Company back in the 80's.
He was an amazing actor and a naturally very funny man. He and Alfred Marks had a lot of scenes together and watching them in rehearsals was amazingly funny and a rich experience.
I last spoke to him about 7 years ago, we had a beer in the Coach and Horses.
His partner Andy will be devastated, big love to him.
Rest well Geoff, maybe you and Syd can have that chat now.
