    In fairness, I'm not sure I remembered he was still alive.
    He had a great voice, but as Mr Tatty said ^^^ he was the butt of many jokes.
    RIP
     
  6. RIP, another of my parents' generation of light entertainers gone, I don't think we'll see the like of them again.

    I liked him he always seemed chirpy.

    My wife’s first crush aged six when she saw him play Buttons at the Birmingham hippodrome.

    One of the last of the all round entertainers who learnt their trade on the stage.

  17. One of his records was on Popmaster last week - Mrs Cunny and I were wondering how old he was - and funny with his cheesy jokes - and a good sport with Morecambe and Wise - RIP Des
