shit on it

Damnit, means my comedy gold idea will never see the light of day. Mixing Martin with Anatoly Dyatlov (Chernobyl). The reactor is going critical and the chief scientist takes his shirt off and asks "Is anyone else roasting?". The reactor explodes and there is a pause in the control room, punctured by an exclamation of "Shit on it".

 

This is normally where someone tells me it has been done.

I found him very entertaining. It’s a great loss to entertainment.

Link: Friday Night Dinner Fans Had Crimble Crumble Last Night In Honour Of Paul Ritter [Lad Bible]

 

Fans of Friday Night Dinner last night had 'crimble crumble' in honour of Paul Ritter who died on Monday (5 April).

 

The actor, best known for playing Martin Goodman, the shirtless patriarch of the series, sadly passed away after suffering from a brain tumour last week, his agent said.

 

So to show their love for the 54-year-old and the character he played for the best part of a decade, fans across the UK treated themselves to the Goodmans' favourite pudding, Jackie's 'crimble crumble'.

 

Fans took to Twitter to share snaps of their desserts, and called on others to do the same.

 

Posting their pic, one user said: "'Crimble Crumble' with extra cinnamon for my #FridayNightDinner#RIPPaulRitter #S***OnIt."

 

Another wrote: "Crimble crumble, a cuppa and an episode or 2 of Friday Night Dinner, in honour of Paul Ritter. #lovelybitofsquirrel"...
