I can’t believe he was 76!

He went out of favour but during his time he was a well loved entertainer.

I remember going to one of his shows and being scared all the way through that he would pick on me for something

Such a shame. His rendition of Vincent invariably makes me cry laughing.

I wasn't a fan, but I can't believe the BBC hasn't even mentioned this yet. Not earth shaking news, but surely if they can mention Adrian Edmundson going to Eastenders must need the money they could mention Freddie Star. He was huge in his time. I felt really sorry for him during the sex abuse allegations. He was a shadow of himself.
