Bill Oddie
Biography
Born in 1941, William Edgar Oddie is best known as one third of seminal comedy act The Goodies alongside Tim Brooke-Taylor and Graeme Garden. He had met the other comedians at the Footlights while studying at Cambridge, and went on to appear in radio show I'm Sorry I'll Read That Again, which spawned the spoof panel game I'm Sorry I Haven't a Clue, in which he occasionally appeared.
After The Goodies came to an end in the early 80s, Oddie spent a few years on tea-time infotainment show Fax. He has since become well known as a birdwatcher and naturalist, and presented the BBC's Springwatch series.
