PAUL O’Grady’s final wish was to be laid to rest alongside his former partner. Thousands of mourners turned out for the beloved comic who died aged 67 after a sudden cardiac arrhythmia.…
Paul had been caring for him at his Kent home - and found him a hospital bed from the Holby City Props department.
Speaking about him to the Mirror, Paul had said: "I’d lost my best mate, someone who’d been in my life for 25 years and saw me through the days when I was lucky to earn £50 for standing on a beer crate in the corner of a pub telling jokes."It transcended any sexual relationship we’d had. This was a partnership. A double act, Emma Peel and Steed, Laurel and Hardy.
"We were both 49, barely able to believe what we’d achieved – I’d just won a BAFTA for the Paul O’Grady Show – and then suddenly bang, he’s gone."
