Norman Wisdom died today. Not a great week for stars.

Absolute legend - one of the pioneers. RIP Norman.

Pipped me to the post Scunner.
A cliche I know but none the less true,
they don't make them like that any more.

Got to be one of most natural funny men ever also one of the nicest anyone could ever meet, he did excellent charity work.

I hope they repeat the Hero's of Comedy biography on him, well worth watching,
he was a genuinely funny man, the pathetic little man who always won through in the end
apparently he was Charlie Chaplins favourite comedian.

Mr Grimsdale, Mr Grimsdale.

Sad loss of a genius, one of my favourite memories is of him and Bruce Forsyth doing a complete sunday night at the london pallidium, seems a lifetime ago now.R.I.P Norman.
