Bernard Manning is dead

[HampshireSeagulls]

Spot on. A tired, racist washed out comedian from the dark ages.

You forgot the bit about multi-millionaire. Someone must have liked him for him to make that much cash just from telling jokes from the dark ages!

 

[Spunk Bubble]

Never warmed to the bloke myself. Found him completely unfunny. However, thoughts go out to his family.

 

[magoo]

what the hell is going on!?!

i'm glad at the thought of the planet progressing one step further by the demise of the ignorant cretin.

 

[Gully]

I am with spunk bubble, never found him to be particularly funny, my thoughts are also with his family...it is going to cost a fortune to buy a coffin big enough to bury that twat!

 

[Lady Bracknell]

I won't be shedding tears over the loss of him but for all that he was a consummate professional. However, it's a great shame that he couldn't have used his undoubted skills to make jokes that were actually funny. Unless you happen to find a tide of racism funny, that is...

I didn't realise he was still alive. Assumed he had died years ago

 

[Northstander]

Ester Rantzen will be doing the reading at his funeral.

I remember him defending himself once by saying that there was no such thing as an offensive joke, there was just funny and not funny. I agree with him, which is why the controversial nature of much of his comedy doesn't really bother me, he was just not funny and I fear for anyone who really believes that he was.

 

[Harty]

A legend he will be sadly missed whatever anyone thinks of the content of his act.

If only Bernard could have managed a larf every five minutes he might have had a decent act.

Blimey, I agree with Harty. A really funny man in his time.

You must have watched him a fair bit to be able to comment, personally if i dont like someone i just dont watch them

 

[BRIGHT ON Q]

Very sad loss,Its funny because i saw some footage the other day of him on the michael Parkinson show from the early seventies,Bernard cracked a racist joke and Parkinson was falling about laughing.Just shows how times have changed.
seen him live and thought he was very funny.

 

[Gully]

If only Bernard had managed a breath every five minutes, he might have died years ago and saved us the bother of waiting so bloody long to write his obituary.
