Comedian Dave Lee dies after cancer fight 16th January 2012
It is very sad that I have to announce that the great Comedian and friend Dave Lee has died. Dave and I go back many years as performers. I was on the road with him during all the Jim Davidson Sinderella tours. During these tours he ask me along with the Oddballs to appear in his charity show Happy holidays at the Marlowe theatre in Canterbury. We appeared in all his shows and The Oddballs became a bit of a fixture. He knew he never had to ask and yearly I would get his call and he just told me the date.

Dave was the life and soul of the party and always had a gag to tell. He will be missed.”A tireless fundraiser, he raised more than £2m for charity through his Dave Lee Happy Holidays - which raises money to provide trips for sick, disabled and disadvantaged children. Dave Lee started his career as a drummer and singer and had several records released. He went on to form his own comedy show band as lead singer and impressionist.It was a chance meeting with Eric Morecambe that changed Mr Lee’s life forever. Eric watched Dave performing with his group and advised him to start a solo career as a comedian or actor in his own right.

He began his TV career as a warm up man for Michael Parkinson, Michael Aspel and Jimmy Tarbuck. After this, he appeared in front of the cameras in his own right on the likes Des O’Connor Tonight, the Generation Game, Celebrity Squares, A Royal Gala for HRH Prince Charles, Live from the Palladium, The Brian Conley Show, Big Break, Only Joking, Davro on the Box, Des and Mel and recently hosting is own golfing series Through The Green, plus many more.

Rheindahlen is situated in Germany 's Industrial Heartland of North Rhine Westphalia, near Mönchengladbach. To the East lies the fashionable up-market city of Düsseldorf and to the West lies Holland and the Benelux countries.

After the War ended in May 1945, it was necessary to have a Headquarters for the British Occupation Forces and so they started to build JHQ Rheindahlen in the early 1950s. It was eventually ready for occupation in October 1954 and celebrated its 50th anniversary in 2004. Thirty-one people were injured after a 300-lb car bomb exploded on 23 March 1987 near the officers' mess. The IRA later stated it had carried out the bombing
