His comedy may not appeal to everyone today, but just what the world needs now , more people like the gentle, clever and selfless Larry Grayson. Much missed, never equalled.
Larry was one funny man,I nearly wet myself last night watching him be himself.
I actually think he would be bigger today
I am from Bermuda Village near nuneaton. The old people in the village loved Billy aka Larry. When we did cross country running at school we used to go past Larry’s house and always wanted to see him. What you see on tv is pure Larry and pure Nuneaton
It didn't appeal to everyone then, either. But it's easy to forget, or overlook, how clever he was, and how quick. He enjoyed his eventual success, and deserved it.
When Ken Dodd sang your praises, for sure you’d made it in the world of comedy. Very simply, Larry was a one-of-a-kind genius. Utterly unique and original.
The master who could make the audience laugh with just an expression ! A kind and gentleman man who won the hearts of millions around . God Bless you Larry
A true star. Thank you for the glory years of comedy Larry.
He was the king of asides and timing. He was also remembered as a lovely kind and gentle man.
You can see how much Isla loved him. I have seen a post how he used to have drink at a pub in Nuneaton and he was just himself and made everyone laugh. Working men included. Never forgot who he was.
I met him at a store appearance, my dad was hosting the event and he took the time to find him and say thank you. Gave my gran a big hug. God bless you Larry. We can all only hope we can leave such lovely memories when we go.
I grew in Bermuda Village and everyone loved him there too.
If you are from nuneaton you know’muda
How could anyone not love the wonderful, indomitable Larry grayson..what a flamboyantly beautiful man.. If the world had more Larry's what a sunny world we would be in.. Beautiful man. A golden comedy legend.
Now I've re-watched a lot of his stuff, now I see how funny he was
A year ago... That went fast considering we were all trapped in a sci fi movie come real....
If only he was still here to entertain us, so naturally funny and one of those special people you cant help but like.
They don't make them like Larry anymore he was a gentleman and a comic genius. With a heart of gold . Stars of today could learn a lot from him .there was no ego no star nonsense and that's why he was loved by millions all over the world Rip
Loved Larry Grayson such a funny Man.
Look at the muck in here, Larry was hilarious when I was a kid and still is ,a very witty and much admired man in my memories
Larry grayson was fantastic loved the generation game and shut that door rip beautiful soul ❤️
He was kind, funny and very, very gay. He did yeoman's work in counteracting the nastiness of bible thumpers and Tories towards gay men, just by being himself. People would hear the sermons and parliamentary rants against gay men and think, "Oh, but that Larry Grayson is a pouf, and he's a lovely man. I'd happily have him home for tea. The vicar just can't be right about him.". Larry was the visible, and lovable, face of gay men to lots of people, and that benefited everyone - but especially the gay men who couldn't be open about it because they'd be fired or face other ostracism. Larry made the world safer and more open for all gay men in Britain, just by being the fabulous, good-hearted entertainer that he was.
Well said sir 👍👍

He was super lovely suits he wore a very professional entertainer I remember as a child my sister and I were not allowed to speak while he was on 🤣😂🤣😂🤣🤣☺️🤣☺️🤣☺️ I said to mum one day shut that door she walloped me 🤣😂🤣😂☺️🤣☺️🤣
Amazing timing,legend
The door will never shut on Larry. ❤
A funny and lovely man.
Did he make me laugh. He certainly did. Rest in peace Larry 🌹
A star.
Lovely man near my hometown. Same sence of humour x belly lough, not many people nowadays can do that.
I've been researching my family tree and iam related to him. His Mother was a Franklin like me 🥳🥳
Related to comedy royalty, lucky you! His mother was Edith if I remember correctly
There was a post man in my local area, he was called 'pop it in Pete'. lol
Genius.
Legend.
Larry ❤
😂😂 Seems like a nice boy!!!😂😂
Dustin Gee Did A Great Impression Of Larry
I remember watching him when I must have been 7 or 8, doing the army marching with the white helmet. That was his appeal. It was inoffensive, funny and anyone could watch.
His stand up comedy style is similar to the late, great Frankie Howard ☺
i love them both.
Similar in that it's effeminate but definately not the same at all. Frankie was very jealous of Larry esp as Frankie wanted the generation game.. What u have to understand is Larry is overtly homosexual uncle in his campness whereas Frankie wasn't.both fantastic legends. Wonderful men. Shame never saw them together.
The original drama queen...sadly missed
Hello JPI, thanks a lot for all your uploads. I'm searching for long time the BBC2 Playhouse - my dear palestrina 1980 episode. Looking for this episode for long time and it seems it's impossible to find it on the net. There is any chance you can upload this episode?
I don't currently have that episode, but I'll upload it if I do get hold of it :)
@@JuggiesArchive Thank you a lot, I'd really appreciate it :)
Ever'ard
He made a career out of saying “shut that door “ .
Seemed like a nice boy albeit a one-trick pony.
Why is the woman putting on the BBC accent? She should have just used her regional accent and be done with it since she can't stick with it. Thank god they don't do that as much nowadays.
