"I'm not afraid of dying, I just don't want to be there when it happens."
Spike Milligan... who hopefully wasn't around 8 years ago today.
When his friend and fellow Goon Harry Secombe died in 2001 he said, "I'm glad he died before me, I didn't want him to sing at my funeral."
They played a recording of Harry Secombe singing at Spike's memorial service a year later.
