He was great. What a terrible end he had.

"Go, before I strike you!"

He's hyphenated, actually. Obviously had a few!

Richard Briers(the good life) said terry thomas is his cousin. They were close cousins. He said the family didnt talk like that but terry did. He even spoke like that on and off camera.

I say what an absolute sharr 😄👍

Is this Sir Mortimer Wheeler?

Sir Percy Ware-Armitage.........never to be forgotten by this Australian. " Those Magnificent Men in their Flying Machines"........unsurpassed. Les Griffiths

He had no successor in films that I can think of, indicative of his uniqueness as a cinematic character type. Once gone, the actor's "Terry Thomas" persona that he epitomized so well, disappeared entirely from the world's movie screens.

If you think that joke was I feel sorry for you, you must lead a very sad life😢

Not forgotten by a lot of us!

A great Actor. RIP TERRY

Bob Newhart used this same joke. I don't know who had priority.

School For Scoundrels (1960). TT - Excellent film & performance as Raymond Delauney.

One if Britains greatest Treasures .RIP

My friend put the mirror in and her budgie won’t stop talking. Chirping, actually.

My Dad was a black cab driver in the '60's. Terry Thomas had a terrible reputation for hailing a black cab to take him home, pretending on arrival that his wallet was inside his house. He'd then disappear into the house, never to come out again. Word went round, and few cabbies would stop for him.

That humour is too British for me.

Only one Terry Thomas.

You can see the punchline coming a mile off, but i still chuckled

He is beautiful

Your an absolute shower !,I should post the bloody lot of you!

Very funny man

How could you NOT have properly hyphenated the name of Terry-Thomas?!

Warning: this joke is not that funny. It’s funny, but not THAT funny

Adore english accent it' s a 💎🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

Forgetting to feed an animal isn't funny 😐

Sir Hiss... "A mere slip of the forked tongue, Your Majesty." Class act. Remember him in Monte Carlo Or Bust; Dick Dastardly, but much funnier.

It’s as funny as being from a foreign country 🐷

Terry Thomas... Thank you for the smiles... 🥲 🥲 🥲

The best! EVER

Apparently Dustin Hoffman based his Captain Hook on Terry.....love him in a School for Scoundrels...

Gosh what a great story!

should have said that to begin with.

“Is it weakness of intellect, birdie?” I cried “Or a rather tough worm in your little inside” With a shake of his poor little head, he replied “Oh, willow, tit willow, tit willow!” He slapped at his chest, as he sat on that bough Singing “Willow, tit willow, tit willow” And a cold perspiration bespangled his brow Oh, willow, tit willow, tit willow He sobbed and he sighed and a gurgle he gave* Then he plunged himself into the billowy wave And an echo arose from the suicide’s grave “Oh, willow, tit willow, tit willow” Now I feel just as sure as I’m sure that my name Isn’t Willow, tit willow, tit willow That ‘twas blighted affection that made him exclaim “Oh, willow, tit willow, tit willow” And if you remain callous and obdurate, I Shall perish as he did, and you will know why Though I probably shall not exclaim as I die “Oh, willow, tit willow, tit willow”

He did say something just before he died. Is Trump's rotten steaks all you got? aka The Trill of it all. Operation Snatch is a 1962 British comedy film starring Terry-Thomas and George Sanders and directed by Robert Day.😊 What? Tit willow tit willow tit willow

My Grandad stole this joke! His version seemed a lot longer (maybe it just seemed like that, as I was a little kid). And I thought he made it up himself. I feel my childhood is a lie! He definitely changed the punchline to "Didn't they sell any BLANKS (to prevent full spoiler) in that shop?!" I also found out decades later that a song he claimed he wrote, was off the telly. I bet he stole everything! 😂

Terry Thomas was a right wag but that budgie joke was a damp squib.

British Empire IS a joke.....quite a wicked one.....

Well, you got me. Nothing funny at all. I did expect exactly that, nothing, so I was delighted by the fop.

Love Terry's real London accent rather than the professional RP accent

I think he was very funny in it’s a Mad Mad Mad World and the movie How to Murder your wife.

"He's the kind of chap who showers in his vest" 😂

😂😂😂

The jeep crash scene he had with Milton Berle in its A Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World was epic.

Well hello Ding dong 😂

I'm going to go out on a limb and say he seems English.

LOLOLOLOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Wotta guy!

The great comedian was my fourth cousin. Those of us living in Canada never got to meet him, but like many people around the world, we enjoyed his brilliant acting.

I like Terry Thomas' films, but this joke? Not funny!

LOL .
