I particularly loved her as a mermaid in the film Miranda, when I was small.

A sad one, but not unexpected given his age.
I first heard of Bob when he released his first album (as comedians do!) in 1966, and I remember laughing so hard at the time, and all the years in between up to his appearances on The Big Bang Theory.
He influenced my humour from a tender age ( there's a giveaway.)
If you have the patience, the clip goes for approx. 8 minutes.

RIP Bob, you will be missed ❤️

I loved him as Professor Proton in TBBT.
He played the role with a uniqueness that nobody could have matched,
Very sad.
RIP

Thank you Stawks - patience wasn't needed - funny as.
RIP Bob.

I’m another Professor Proton fan. No one but Bob Newhart could have played that role with all of that sense of reluctant mildness and wonderful strangeness. I loved that Will Wheaton became the reboot version, and how that enraged Sheldon… and then Sheldon dream-encountered Professor Proton whose slightly irascible deadpan comments somehow gave him comfort…
Professor Proton asked Sheldon “Do you know what rest in peace means?” … May he truly have that peace now. Farewell, Arthur, farewell, Bob.
