I saw him live at about age 11. I was in the front row with the family and had a multi coloured top on. He asked if i'd come as a tube of Smarties.
I always thought Ken Dodd was a marvellous, terrific children's entertainer. But were there really adults who found him amusing? No accounting for taste, I suppose.
Someone forgot to tell Ricky Tomlinson. He's a hard-left fanatic, a fully paid up Maggie hater and a massive Ken Dodd fan. I guess some people are imprisoned by their politics and incapable of setting it aside and others are not.
He was one of a kind, similar to Bob Monkhouse in that he had notebooks with thousands of jokes. His performances were 100% rehearsed,nothing left to chance, superb preparation. Anyone who beats HMRC is ok by me. God bless him and RIP. He made me laugh, and he never swore, I like that.
I have had over 1000 Nukes, Disagrees and dislikes today from Creamy for giving him a retaliatory drama queen - I must admit I retaliated with about 200 or so but quickly got bored as he continued in his apoplectic state. All I can think of is you must have got caught in the cross fire so I will now go and change it for you to a drama queen for you chill dude
I didn't mention you, I made a general observation. If the cap fits, wear it. If it doesn't, move on. Doesn't matter to me either way. Still, if you do feel offended at least you're still alive to defend yourself.
As I said - I've had around a thousand today from Creamy - it's a love thing on here, unless your a drama queen, then it's a drama queen thing - you'll be fine
Come on everybody, this post is for Ken Dodd, not a lot of silly time wasting irrelevant banter,can we please get back to the thread topic?
