A brilliant talent and dedicated performer even if never really my cup of tea.  His live performances were legendary

RIP

Shame, he was a straightforward funny man who could entertain families for hours, cleanly. RIP.

I took The Boy to see him once and subsequently got a kind signed message and a top of the range tickling stick. I reminded The Boy this morning that he could say he had seen a legend performing live. Having said that, I thought he was more interesting in some of the documentaries and interviews that he was on stage. I didn't find him that funny  redface:

It's better than I ever even knew.  They say that the world was built for two.  Only worth living if somebody is loving you.  Baby now you do.
