Comedy legend in the UK.
Quote: |
Rex Harrison urged him to take up a career in showbiz; Charlie Chaplin named him his favourite clown. Yet Norman Wisdom remained that most modest of British superstars, unpretentious, full of humility, despite a dizzying rise to international fame. Or, rather, extreme popularity in the UK, and extraordinary adulation in other slightly unlikely other countries, most notably Albania, where he was, notoriously, the only Western actor whose films were allowed in the country during the dictatorship of Enver Hoxha. |

The guy was an utter legend.
So modest and likeable too. You'd be hard-pressed to find anyone who could say anything bad about him. Not many people like that left on the planet. |

Brilliant comic, if he was in any film, it became a classic of his, regardless of any other actors involved.
RIP Norman, you'll be sadly missed. |

His movie re-runs over here on PBS are always fun.
Quintessential British comedy - like the Carry On Gang.
Lived to 95 - rapid decline only at the end - good on ya Norm. |
