    The Ed Sullivan Show was a television variety program that aired on CBS from 1948-1971. For 23 years it aired every Sunday night and played host to the world's greatest talents. The Ed Sullivan Show is well known for bringing rock n' roll music to the forefront of American culture through acts like Elvis Presley, The Beatles, and The Rolling Stones. The entertainers each week ranged from comedians like Joan Rivers and Rodney Dangerfield, to Broadway stars Julie Andrews and Richard Burton, to pop singers such as Bobby Darin and Petula Clark. It also frequently featured stars of Motown such as The Supremes, The Temptations, Stevie Wonder and The Jackson 5. The Ed Sullivan Show was one of the only places on American television where such a wide variety of popular culture was showcased and its legacy lives on to this day.

    Arthur Worsley is the best ventriloquist EVER! Hands down. (Or even hands up!). It’s as simple as that. And I’ve seen them all. R.I.P. Mr Worsley. And thank you for sharing your genius with the world.

      Good, but it looks too obvious. Arthur looks to expressionless. Ray Allen had his own facial expressions that were interacting with Lord Charles.

    3 things I look at when a ventriloquist acts, lips, reaction, clear voice this guy has mastered it to perfection a ventriloquist could have a funny act but if i see his lips movie it spoils it because I'm looking at his lips movie.This guy is so good he makes you think that the puppet is real..

      Even though I know the punchline I still laugh. Not only was Arthur Worsley the best ventriloquist ever, he was extremely funny with it. He packs so much into one very short, slick routine. I wish I had been able to see him in a full show. I wish more of his work had been saved for future generations to be able to appreciate his talent. 👋

    Arthur Wilkinson Worsley (16 October 1920 - 19 July 2001) was a British ventriloquist who appeared regularly on British television from the 1950s to the 1970s. His act with dummy Charlie Brown had Charlie do all the talking, while Worsley himself remained "silent".

    One of the worst ventriloquist acts I have ever seen, His lips move slightly sometimes when talking and during every word when singing. His body posture is moving far too much with every word rather than showing he is relaxed and not making to much effort trying to hide the fact he is talking which is the whole point of the illusion and he fails to do it at all. He shows no interaction with the doll and just looks away. This is bad acting in so many ways. When a ventriloquist makes no effort to make a good act, show good posture and be involved in a conversation with the doll how can he be the best or at the very least good!
