Didn't know he was ever into comedy. Started off doing rather poor Norman Wisdom impressions and puerile slapstick and spent the rest of his career pulling faces and looking like Charles Laughton.
Singularly unfunny, overrated and has decided to call it quits as the work has dried up. Sensible decision when there is a lot better on the circuit.
Agree with you. Never found him funny. Sweaty little bloke.
