‘What a lovely day for staying in and varnishing the wife’s legs!’ As a kid I used to like listening to his Sunday lunchtime radio show (and others) even if a lot of it went over my head. Funny, over the last few days I have been listening to the non PC outrageously camp Julian and Sandy sketches from Round The Horne. You would never hear anything like that today. Some great comedy back then in my formative years. RIP Doddy.

One of the greatest without doubt. Not every joke he made was particularly funny but he hit you so rapidly with jokes that once a really funny one got you laughing you found yourself even finding the average joke funny until you were practically laughing at anything he said. Another icon has left us.

Thats only a matter of opinion though isn't it, and its good that we all like and dislike different things.
Im sorry to hear this news about Ken Dodd, but I can't remember ever finding anything he or Tommy Cooper did either, to be amusing.
And yes I do like Michael McIntyre by the way, it might be an age thing.
