As a man of a certain age. I grew up watching Freddie Starr, here in the UK. He was without doubt, a one off and a comic genius. I am sure he would be thrilled, knowing his Talent is still appreciate by such a lovely lady. Thank you so much for sharing this.

[@Frank-dl1vk]

I was lucky enough to see him live as he toured the nightclubs before he became a household name. Des O'Connor was a great fan and they had many laughs together. Two sketches with Shirley Bassey were Freddie at his best. One where he was barman serving Des and Shirley but the ultimate sketch was Freddie singing with Shirley when he was sitting on a two legged stool dressed in his German uniform. Now we aren't allowed to laugh at ourselves so it's nice to see a young lady in this day and age who appreciates his humor and his talent. He had a great voice.

[@davidrobinson8543]

The way Freddie was treated at the end by the British media was terrible for an absolute legend to be treated like that

[@achilles8356]

It's heartbreaking mate, I watch these for nostalgia and I still laugh at these but I can't help but feel sad and depressed at the same time. Can't help but think about that evil that was done to him. He looked destroyed towards the end of his life. Same thing with Michael Jackson. There needs to be seriously new laws put in for false accusers, ridiculous out there now!

[@achilles8356]

[@alexc8209]

They love to do that, especially now that the media is 100% left wing and the old entertainers were talented and genuine. two things that left wing people hate. He died in Mijas in Andalucia and having been there a few times I can tell you that it is a very nice place to pass away. Everyone is smart to leave England now. Get out while you can. Leave it to the lefties, feminists, trans and racists.

[@DerekPhin]

Just typical of the British media. They do anything to sell their rags. Haven't looked at one for years.

[@Chipchase780]

True comic talent is when a comic can just look at an audience and have then rolling about in their seats. Freddie had that in buckets. Dangerous, totally unpredictable, the audience were deliciously nervous not knowing what he was going to do next, and loving it.

[@pozzyuk7504]

I grew up watching Freddie , my dad had all his shows and clips . He was so funny and a talented singer . I love that a young lady from America can enjoy his humour as here in the uk young people don’t get him like we did

[@ollypolly18]

iv met Freddy a few times he was a true gent and funny as hell. mad as a box of frogs Steve UK

[@philipgrabarski3775]

Brilliant . A legend. Rip freddie.

[@jamesdeane6052]

I'm from the UK and I remember growing up watching Freddie Starr he was brilliant! At the end he was treated so mean! I the media and other people accusing him of being a pedophile is disgusting in itself

[@JohnHMarsden]

Freddie was the best ever.

[@Cloudberry46]

Freddie Starr, a comedy genius and a fantastic singer (When he wasn't larking about). Freddie and Des, we'll not see their like again, alas.

[@nickravenhill723]

Fantastic that this legend was appreciated by a lovely lady on the other side of the pond. Well done to you and your show.

[@garryellison]

A master performer whos life was made a misery by police and all for nothing terrible terrible way for a great man to end his life the way it did. Rest in peace and Godbless Freddie.

[@johnmichaelford3615]

Freddie brought out a couple of albums and it would be great if you could find them. He was the best comedian and singer of his generation

[@xvrays]

You’re such a genuine lovely young lady. I love your southern accent. Freddie’s take on Mick Jagger will have you in hysterics!

[@jeffreyweitzman6463]

Freddie would be touched that his legacy as 1 of the unquestionable greats is continued to be learnt about watched, and appreciated by new generations. He made countless laugh, and including when he appeared over the years with Des on the Des O'Connor show, definitely mix of emotions yes so many laughs but with some sadness that with both of them gone now such special times that they gave us but that we miss those special times a huge amount!

[@robertomoi2044]

Love watching u and your love for freddie. Freddie truly was a comic genius and his singing voice was like wow!!

[@raycope2086]

Shine on beautiful lady.

[@bobtowns6260]

I see him live in the early 80s in Bournemouth UK absolute legend 🙌

Thank you so much for checking out my channel. You do an amazing job on your reaction videos. I have more uploads on my channel now and a lot more to come, however if you would like to see some unreleased footage feel free to join Freddie Starr The Official UK Fan Club where you’ll be able to enjoy very exclusive content that will not be put onto KZbin. Again mega well done on all you do on your channel.

[@haveabarryniceday238]

Thank you and I love and appreciate your channel so much thank you for what you do 😊🙏🏻

[@DPYROAXIS]

Do you have his Mick Jagger impression?

[@peter-xy5ro]

Brilliant. Very much missed 👍

[@sugarbertie1143]

I too wish I could have gone to see Freddie live , he often played at venues around the UK and everybody, just everybody, loved him. Your reactions to that lovely funny guy are so genuine and so touching. He didn't deserve to pass away in such poor health and as a broken man, and also not a great age. To see him in his last year he looked destroyed with his nerves and trauma. What a sad end to such a talanted man's life. Him and Des were great friends and they just gelled. He was a comedy genius no doubt about it. God bless him.

[@colindavid2078]

I live in Northern Ireland, but went on holiday to Blackpool almost every year with my dad, for around 20 years. We always seen shows over there, especially comedy and music. To name a few, we have seen....... Frank Carson, The Grumbleweeds, Johnny Casson, Joe Longthorne, The Shadows, Bradley Walsh...., but one of the best "all-round" entertainers we ever seen was Freddie Starr! The man was amazing, and I was lucky to meet him (on my own) once when I went for a smoke on Blackpool pier during an interval, and walked around to the back of the venue. There was Freddie having a pint and smoke himself, and we shared a quick chat. Being 6 foot 1 inch myself, he was so small in real life, but what a gentleman! I will forever hold a place in my heart for Freddie, and I very much doubt the UK will ever have a comedian like him again! Shame on the media and the people who ever doubted him!

[@sugarbertie1143]

@@colindavid2078 Yes mate, he was a one off. Very very talented, and he had a fabulous singing voice as well. A true all round entertainer. You're right we won't see anyone like him again, there is nobody nowadays to touch him. He is missed by all of us and it breaks my heart to think of how his health deteriorated after the allegations against him. They destroyed him.

[@johntoohey8502]

L I grew up and still live in the same city of liverpool,as freddie starr. He was always a comical genius . I hear you like Elvis which is now dated,but the people of Freddies generation all aspired too be or sound like him..Notice the clothes that the men wore( Teddy Boys) Long draped jackets, tight pants(drainpipes) and big suede shoes(brothelcreepers). Watch Freddie perform in one of his shows with The Jordanaires(Elvises backing singers) He had a decent representation of Elvis, but as we know,there can only be one Elvis. Take a look on british TV.

[@eddierae8945]

Wasnt Freddie just something very special, from the golden age of TV. Great watching all his stuff again. Amazing how different generations , find these comic legends, and enjoy the laughter...😀🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

[@johnrice7076]

Freddie Starr was a genius he was a brilliant talent there will never be another like him RIP freddie

[@DerekPhin]

It's my second time watching your reactions, both were Freddie Starr, that's how I found your channel. Loved seeing you mime the words to "My Way", and yes I saw you tearing up. That is one of the things I liked most, it shows that you have a beautiful soul. It's an emotional song. I cried listening to Elvis Presley singing it not long after his passing. I find it very heart warming knowing that a lovely young lady enjoys comedy from my era.

[@druidswillow1052]

So glad you like/love Freddie Starr over the pond, 2 legends of British TV Both sadly departed R.I.P Des & Freddie

[@Johnsmith-tf5rd]

Loved all your reactions to the late, great Freddie Starr. i would love you to read aloud {Nirrate} Freddies Biography. Your southern, united states accent has a beautiful and calming sound to it. Thank you & Take care. Love from Liverpool UK.

i saw him live in concert it was a very tearful night caused by uncontrolled laughter

Wild One is the most apt song for Freddie.

[@davidanderson3586]

I grew up with Freddie Starr in the 70s & 80s, a one off certainly :-)

[@carpravingmad7853]

i sat in the front row at Blackpool tower Theatre back in 1975, i was 11 ears old, he ripped me too bits, loved the guy ever since

[@coldbreeze6344]

Freddie at it all a true genius

[@mikeclark4416]

Freddie was a Big Fan of Elvis Presley , he took some of his stage act into the Elvis . He even had the Jourdenaires on his programme singing "Dont " Des Oconnor used to get really annoyed with Freddie ,as Des could see Freddie as a Serious Singer ,and all Freddie did was playing about . Freddie was a Genius Comedian

[@glasgowjohn7831]

des o'conner was good pals with him but was absolutely terrified of having him on his show

[@76ludlow]

Freddie Starr was a an absolute comedy legend. In my view he was one of the most outrageous comics ever. There will never be another like him. Des O'Connor was also a great comic too, much more than a talk show host. He was primarily a singer who had great comic ability. Among his greatest exploits were with his great friends Morcambe and Wise. There was a running gag on their TV shows where they would always lampoon his LPs and make fun of his singing voice, but it was all for fun and Des was their greatest friend. There was never any harm in it.

[@jkpole]

A genius ... thank you for the great memories of my youth watching him .... SADLY MISSED

[@andybarton4139]

Very unpredictable was our Freddie amazingly funny

[@rjenkinson7955]

Freddie was one of our best comedians and impressionists a genius of his profession and the public loved him but the media didn't seem to like him and at the end of his life hounded him but in my opinion and many others he was a legend and I still cry with laughter when I watch him

[@paulhill2426]

He was a legend glad you have been reviewing the clips so funny if you get chance , check out Freddie stars mad house 👍

[@rogerbarton497]

I wish we still had telly like this today. I saw him live when he made an appearance with the Shadows doing his Cliff Richard impression.

Her accent is beautiful.

You need to listen to Freddie sing ‘Don’t’ with the Jordanaires it’s just like listening to Elvis. It’s on Utube

[@leedavies4589]

i got to see Freddie live in Blackpool and he picked me out and ripped me to shreds i was about 8 at the time my Dad sat next to me was laughing his head off freddie turned on him best show i ever went too he was a genius

I love your accent, young lady! Carry on with the good work. 👍

[@martinwebb1681]

I don't know why this was recommended to me by you tube but as it was Freddie Starr I clicked on it to watch ... and I have to say it was just as much fun watching you react to Freddie as it was watching the great Freddie Starr, seeing your reaction to the comedy was really nice and I also love your accent.

[@cricketbat09]

Did you know that Freddie is famous/infamous in the UK for the newspaper headline, "Freddie Starr ate my hamster", which appeared on the front page of The Sun. (It has been voted most memorable news headline of all time).

[@williamronneywilliams2639]

Des O'connor passed away 14th November 2020,he and Freddie were close friends. Freddie & Ali were on Des O'connor show together had me in fits of laughter.

[@williamronneywilliams2639]

kzbin.info/www/bejne/b52yYmagh8Selas Freddie makes Muhammad Ali jump.

[@bingohall1333]

You will probably not know this, that Des O'Connor is the only British person to make American TV talk shows and be popular on American TV with the women and his accent. He did two seasons don't ask me what channel we was on or what station he was with and on. It was him who discovered Leno, Letterman when they were young comedians invited him on his American show to joke and fool around and they became instant hits there is another one but I can't remember him or his name and all 3 they went on to host huge talk shows themselves.

[@anthonyhaylock6655]

A comic genius

[@Isleofskye]

I have just Subscribed as you are such a lovely,genuine person. Good Luck from South East London..

[@lester1773]

Freddie’s still making me laugh, I hope to see your reaction to Freddie telling Mohammed Ali a joke, if you do one, maybe I will look to see if you’ve reacted to it already.

[@christophercarr3755]

Freddie hated being interviewed, one of the best comedians

[@GloryCarrier22]

What did Freddie ACTUALLY do to make people laugh? I’m serious (unlike him), what did he actually do? Yet I couldn’t hold it together EVER with him, just like Des I cried laughing at him, every. single. time. I often couldn’t breathe for laughing; comic genius like that would be banned as far too outrageous or somehow un-PC but you are looking at almost a god in comedy……Tommy Cooper also had the ability to walk on stage and do NO -THING nothing, just look at the audience with a gormless face; just look….they’d be hanging on to the back of their seats trying to compose themselves…. RIP Freddie and Tommy, your like will never come again…..

[@martinanderson1995]

He was the only man to knock out Muhammad Ali (tongue in cheek) 🤣. YT it, very funny. Freddie was stated to be as good as Elvis. This was said by one of the backing groups for Elvis the Jordanaires,after singing "Dont". I bet you cant tell who is who. 👍. Freddie if you get a chance to read this, just remember, there isnt anyone who can fill your shoes

[@poljames7492]

I enjoyed that,,thank you

[@johnparker5752]

Try finding the show “ A Night with Freddie Starr “ he scares the audience and throws maggots at them . Mad man

[@geoffreyquirk6201]

Thanks Freddiet

[@markprice1647]

I seem to remember that he came to prominence on New Faces or Opportunity Knocks.. My abiding memory is that he used to live in a big pink bungalow called Coral Gables up on the roundabout by the Clegg Arms on the top Chester road on the Wirral where I come from

[@sonnycorleone2015]

Good 1 for u to react to is Freddy star with elvis back up singers the jordanairs and also the 1 with Adam faith

[@debbiewalker1399]

Im the same , I didn't know him till after he died 😂

[@jamesmccann355]

I have a recommendation for you. There's another British comedian who I highly recommend. He's Tim Vine, and he is king of the one liner.

[@JohnR1298]

Des O'connor was the butt of many jokes by Morcambe and Wise but as he actually appeared on one of their shows once I believe they too had a very good rapport. Check out Morcambe and Wise, especially the show with Andre Previn (or 'Andrew Preview' as Eric Morcambe introduced him on stage 😆).

[@johnadair4693]

I'm new to your channel, but I'm sure you must have seen Freddie doing Elvis?

[@wyevalet9781]

Des O'Connor worked well with Eric Morecambe and Ernie Wise too, they were always making fun of his singing (even though he had quite a nice voice really!)

[@keithperdue4993]

Why was voice not synched with vid during My Way? Is this his act? Was this a glitch?

[@stevew3196]

Such a sad ending for a hugely talented man. Freddie was arrested after allegations of historical incidents of sexual assault and harassment of young women. Part of an ongoing investigation following the death of Jimmy Saville. The investigation lasted 2 years before police announced there would be no prosecution. In that time work dried up he was treated badly by the media. He ended up living in Spain an alcoholic with mental health issues having spent most of his savings on legal fees. He died in Spain. His body repatriated to the UK by a funeral director who met the cost. Public donations from fans helped. Freddie is buried in a graveyard in the same grave as his Mom & Dad.

[@bazcrowther8205]

He was funny til the end, to carry on his love for elvis presley he had 'return to sender' on his coffin

[@martindalycray3312]
