Saw him 5th June at lyndene Blackpool. There every 3 months I never miss his shows. Still as good as his younger days. Got photo with him in lyndene, which Tom the compere kindly took for us, another nice guy also.got Jimmys signed book for 10 quid, part goes to charity which Is well good.keep going jimmy, we all love ya.
Jimmy is a top man and a brilliant comedian. I have had the pleasure of Working with him on three occasions. Very generous with his time and charity activities. I would also mention that his wife may is also a lovely lady
Good clean comedy fun and jokes, that's what Jimmy cricket was all about. You could've taken granny to his shows and be guaranteed there wouldn't be any jokes to cringe to. Well done Jimmy!
We went to see Jimmy whilst on holiday, possibly Torquay, about 20 years ago. My son was about 8 at the time. He was in fits of laughter and insisted on meeting him afterwards and buying a CD.
I was just remembering how much my Mum loved this guy, And so did I. I watched the 2020 live performance he done just now, he still made me chuckle. But my Mum's not here to laugh with me any more. Great stuff. Hope he is still going strong after the pandemic
I know you probably won't believe me, but this kid @7:23 Frank ( Frankie ) grew up to be a priest, he know runs the services at our local parish in Salford. I've even met Jimmy, Frank took him to our local once when we were there.
Once saw him in Carlisle handing out leaflets outside a travel agents (now a Costas Coffee). I felt sorry for the poor guy in his LR wellies and he looked embarrassed to. Can't remember the date.
This must be one of the last This Is Your Lifes Eamonn Andrews did, as he died on 5th November 1987, and by the copyright we see this was made in 1987. Eamonn did not look very well in this episode. In 1987 he contracted a virus whilst on a plane journey, however this was not known at the time.
This episode was broadcast on the 4th November 1987, The day before Eamonn's death. Three other episodes where ready to be broadcast after Jimmy's, But where not broadcasted till January 1988, Those been, Kitty Godfree, Tom Maclean & Jane Rossington. Michael's first collar was Phil Collins but was broadcast as his second due to the press printing photos of Phil's surprise the day after. Mickey Rooney's show was shown first then Phil's the week after.
The building site they're in is what is now John Lewis. The old Bentalls store is in the background, looks like they'd just started redeveloping it as one section is covered in scaffolding
O i can understand your comments when its a broadcast but i can assure you watching him live on stage is a different ball game. Had the pleasure of seeing him in our local theatre around the mid eighties, with my elderly in laws, my wife and child. I still smile today thinking of his act. No swearing, no filth, those today wouldnt manage to cut it for "fnnn" every second utterance. Theres more! 😂

I saw him perform recently and I've never laughed so much in my life. Fantastic.

Jimmy Cricket = Legend. 🙂
What a lovely lovely humble man I seen him in Scotland in the 80s and he was brilliant a absolute gentleman 👏👏👏👏
Met him in Whitby crabbing with his Grandchildren - lovely man.
Inoffensive, clean.and funny
No wonder you never see him.om.TV today.
Clean and simple humour that can appeal to all generations. He seems a very shy and kind man out of character.
Awesome! And one of the funniest comedians
What a legend thanks for the laughter from Mark in London
He is a very funny man, the act is an old one but he makes it new again and thats not easy to do
yes it is
This was the last TIYL Eamonn Andrews saw in his hospital bed.Jane Rossington was Andrews" last subject.
