Richard Burns, best known to gamers as the eponymous star of SCI/Eidos's critically acclaimed rally driving simulation, has died aged 34 following a two-year battle with astrocytoma, a form of brain tumour.
A sad day for rally fans the world over.

No he's the only English driver to win the WRC. Colin McRae is British and he's won it.

Sad day though, Richard RIP.

You just wouldn't let it lie... (http://www.vicandbob.net/text/influences.htm)

With Vic Reeves Big Night Out came the likes of "You wouldn't let it lie" and "What's on the end of the stick, Vic?" as well as individual catchphrases from characters like Wavy Davey ("hiya! Hiya everyone!") and Graham Lister, ("Reeves, you workshy FOP!").
