Tommy Cooper was brilliant, didn’t even have to say anything to get a laugh. Dave Allen was great, remember him? Paul Merton, Reginald D Hunter, Ross Noble, plenty of good comedians about.
I didn’t find Tommy Cooper funny, it was the same joke repeated over and over and a stupid catchphrase.

Dave Allen was sublime.

Reginald D Hunter is clever.

Paul Merton funny in an abstract way like Spike Milligan.

There’s a Scottish lad called Kevin Maguire ( I think ) who’s excellent.

Bob Monkhouse was a genius.

I loved Bernard Manning.........very un “PC” and offensive to many by today’s standards but right up my street.

If I had to name one though, for sheer magnetic presence, energy and completely manic it’d have to be Robin Williams.

Loved his take on golf......Des will appreciate this😆
