The character he played (Tom Willis) really helped make the show funnier. He was always George's punching bag, and he never hit back, usually because he was too dumb to realize when he was being insulted. He would stand there looking upward (blank look on his face) while he tried to process what George was really saying.

May he rest in peace.
