    Thankyou for reminding me what an unfunny fat biggoted twat he was.

    He was of a genre that worked in the context of the period. It is unfair to judge him against the backdrop of today's pc driven world where humor is seen as a weapon with which to offend rather than amuse. Okay, he was a fat twat but he was an equal opportunity bigot: he took the piss out of everyone.

      Well Waldheim may have died, but that's surely overshadowed by the sad loss of Bernard Manning. He was a great stand-up comedian from a disappearing age when political correctness hadn't reached the ridiculous levels of today, here's an idea of his sense of humour, there's more on YouTube: A man goes to the dentist and asks what treatments are available. The dentist says there's the top notch treatment, brilliant teeth, no blood and no pain. But it costs forty thousand pounds. The man asks what else is on offer, the dentist says there is the next level down, good teeth, a little bit of blood and bit of pain, ten thousand pounds. The man asks if there's anything cheaper, the dentist explains that the basic treatment means poor teeth, lots of blood and lots of pain, but it is only forty quid. The man says "fine I'll take that and send the wife in tomorrow" That's fairly mild in comparison to some of his gems.

      Sometimes he would call out 'Keep your friends white!' as he left the stage. Oh yes, my sides are splitting.

        Like the couple who won a million on the lottery, she said what shall we do with it? we'll put it in the bank and every twelve months we'll buy something with the interest said her husband. So after twelve months she says what shall we do with the interest? We'll have an inside toilet fitted he said, and so they did. Another twelve month passed and she asked again, we'll have a barbecue for all the neighbours he said, so they did and they're all standing around scoffing and he's approached by a neighbour "aye you've done well since winning that million, before you used to sh&& in the garden and eat indoors."

          He wasnt even funny! He was a sad old ignorant fat biggoted sexist racist northern peasant. Really, he was crap. I am old enough to have seen him on TV in the 70s, he was absoloute crap. Hell, Mike Yarwood, the two Ronnies, the Irish guy with a missing finger, Morcombe and Wise were all streets ahead. Heck, everyone weas streets ahead of that cunt.

                    I think you've missed th epoint. There are many types of entertainer. Some you'lll like, some you won't. Manning was old school variety hall type comic and although it fitted well with the 70's it would be out of place now. Oh, and you're a sour faced, humorless cünt. :laugh:

                      So were many. And many were funny. Just not Manning. He just isnt funny, just an obnoxious biggoted fat racist sexist northern foul-mouthed peasant scumbag.
