I remember all the laughter he brought to us as children... Now it would be called corny but we were of a generation of simple fun... Bring it back!!!

Well said Maureen. Norman was an all round entertainer with humility. You just don't find that these days. I always remember that 'trip' immediately after his knighthood (received from the late Queen). Priceless!

I could watch his movies all day, small man with such a big heart, rip Norman you kept a lot of people entertained for many years and still do.

[@stevenlangdon-griffiths293]

What marvellous entertainer. He was a national treasure provider of laughter and smiles. Thanks Norman.

[@richardweldon2062]

Norman Wisdom was a one off. An incredible personality who had a hard upbringing. He used his natural gymnastic skill to bring us some wonderful comedy. He made me laugh as a kid. I'm in my mid fifties and I still remember his films with a smile.

One of my all time favourite actors, wishing there was more. Thank you so much Norman loving memories 💖

[@ameliashandcraftedmemes7888]

If I had the chance to meet anyone who ever lived I would choose Norman Wisdom. He has always inspired me to not take things too seriously and not care what other people think. He may have been foolish but he had a heart 🎶❤️

[@martinking2199]

My hero, what this Gentleman couldn't do you can write on the back of a stamp. More than a legend Sir Norman Wisdom is pure Gold ,national treasure status I will never forget growing up watching the funniest films with a genius who had the warmest heart in the world .miss you Norman RIP forever.

[@bespoken100]

I visited Sir Norman's grave in 2018, when working on the IoM, to pay my respects and lay some flowers. The church is in a lovely, small village in the north of the island.

[@jacketrussell]

I met Norman when I broke down in the 1993 TT Sidecar race. We coasted to a halt at Sulby Bridge and he was there spectating. Had quite a chat with him - he was quite knowledgeable about bike racing.

[@hugebartlett1884]

As kids we never missed a film starring Our Norman. A weekend treat when he was at the local cinema. We enjoyed his films,and so did our parents. His "costar" on several occasions was Margaret Rutherford,and they worked very well together. And could he sing! A beautiful voice,clear enunciation,and moving songs. He sang with Joyce Grenfell,and they matched each other to perfection. I grew up with these stars,and they helped me grow up. I miss them still. R.I.P.

[@scottthefunk]

I loved him as a kid SO much x

I meet sir Norman wisdom when I was 10 years old , I was with my nan and grandad we were at a pub in Dorset . I remember him making me laugh lovely memories. Always loved his films 😀

[@ScratchyBaws]

Comedian, actor, gymnast, boxer, musician, navy man and the list is endless. Imagine having Sir Norm as a dad eh?. I'm fortunate to live and walk my dog in areas where his films were filmed and have great conversations with people pointing out areas from scenes from his classic movies. My favourite point is the path where he does the walk for the silver cup to buy Jimmy a car in the Orphanage movie, he walks down the path where he paints the No. on the wall and transfers it to his vest. That walk, path is where they also filmed The Wombles with Bonnie Langford and her house is in the background. Will always be remembered and you can see he inspired the likes of Lee Evans and Bradley Walsh amongst big names to become comedians/actors. A legend Norm - Up in the World looking down on us all.

I can not believe that a famous Norman wisdom international acter could graveyard somewhere like this place,,, this fantastic person needs a memorial stone much bigger in some special place I remember when I was kid, Iranian TV shows invited him to my country Iran, which was 46 years ago he made a lot of jokes, and at that time I did not understand English but the way he acted was a marvellous entertainer. He was a national treasure provider of laughter and smiles thank you norman ❤🌹

I remember going to the Everyman theatre in Liverpool back in 1960's aged 8yrs old to see him perform. He was outstanding, at one point he was hitting soft white rubber balls into the audience with a tennis racket, the kids just went mad for it. Such a talented musician; comedian; singer and entertainer. Sadly missed!

It'd be very interesting to know where film stars and singers are laid to rest, perhaps there's an illustrated book on the subject, I don't know. PS- one of the soldiers who survived the battle against the zulus at Rorkes Drift is buried in a cemetery just down the road from me in Plymouth UK.

[@angeloddrev]

This is so strange, his wife left him when the children were young. He was about to embark on becoming a star in America. Charlie Chaplin told him he would be an even bigger star than he was. Unfortunately, after finding his wife ran off with another man, Norman had to quit his career as his star was rising and come home to raise his children. He continued with his career as much as was possible but it wasn't the same. I don't understand why that would be on his grave. None of his children's name's either, and jammed close to another. I'm not going to say much about his adult children, unfortunately I've met them. Sir Norman was a wonderful man, he deserved the world. I'm glad to see at least someone/s leaving a few little things there for him. I met him multiple times and he was always extremely kind to his fans and caring. I've worked in a theatre, most stars aren't even close to being as kind as he was. A true gentleman, with a childlike endearing quality. Very missed by many, but honestly mistreated his entire life. I'm so proud how well he did considering the odds. I highly recommend reading his book, he had a terrible upbringing and it's incredible he overcame all of the odds to become a huge star and bring joy to so many. A brilliant man.
