Onnne Hundred and Eighty!
Minus one hundred equals eighty.
Which is how old he was when he died today.

I love Bullseye. Bowen is incredibly charmless, patronising and unlikable, but the world's a dimmer place without him. I remember reading this (Old comics never die...) and am shocked it's from over 10 years ago, but I've always been haunted by what he says at the end of his interview. I can sort of picture it... although this bit's still hilarious;
"Bullseye eventually came to an end, as all good things must. Bowen swallowed his pride and promptly took the show on to the QE2 ("and I'm talking the great QE2 years, not the rubbish ones") and other cruise ships too, seeing the world and maintaining his wealth. He was also a talk-show host on local Lancashire radio until, in 2002, he called somebody a "nig nog" on air, and promptly lost his job."
