    I saw Ken live in Liverpool a number of times many years ago. If you were in the 'last house' you had to make sure you had alternative traval plans as he finnished when he finnished which was normally at least an hour longer than was billed. I was usualy more concerned about breaking a rib from laughing so much than missing the last bus.

    Ken Dodd is he last of the great music hall/variety performers from an era long gone. That's what accounts for the extraordinary range of his talents. Quite apart from his knockabout humor which was very English in style he was a considerable tenor and sang many a memorable ballad. I was a regular listener to his radio show in the early sixties. People like him are nothing less than an everlasting national treasure.

      I used to listen to his BBC RADIO shows here in Ireland in early sixties with the regular catchphrases,like "wheres me shirt", "they can't touch you for it",etc. On one occasion,the show had an Irish flavour......This motorist pulls up to Ken and asked,"whats the quickest way to Kilkenny?".....Ken replied "just push him over a cliff!" Kilkenny is a small medieval city in South east Ireland,probably the smallest in Europe and has a fabulous castle open to the public. It was made a city by Royal charter hundredes of years ago

    He is not only a great comic, he also has an amazing memory. His shows are about 6 hours long. 30 min interval and 2 other acts (When I went) taking about 1 and a half hours total. So to attempt to remember a 4 and a half hour act is insane!

      Saucy, but never dirty.

    This is a master class on how to hold the audience in the palm of your hand and he made it look so easy... No one can better Ken and I do mean no one living or passed away he truly was the king of comedy

    My grandmother never liked his comedy but she loved his singing voice. His comedy to me is what comedy should be not spitting out profanities like today or PC speak. Innocent laughter.
