Ya, the older guy killed himself by holding a gun with blanks to his head and pulling the trigger.

At first I thought you meant Dr. Who, then you said a stop watch was used.

Hmmmm. I will research this a bit more.

was it a cartoon? I remember Sherman and Mr Peabody... they did a spoof of them on the Simpsons (or was it Futurama) one time...
