He Was So Silly! American Reacts to Tommy Cooper Jokes

[@madabbafan]

Tommy, after getting out of a taxi, would pay the fare then slip something into the drivers shirt pocket saying ' here, have a drink on me'. Latet when the driver pulled it out, it turned out to be a tea bag.

That's exactly what my Dad said about seeing him. He didn't do anything for half an hour until the audience stopped laughing. My Grandparents said the same when they saw Laurel and Hardy live.

Twenty years after his death he was voted the funniest British comedian ever, that was how well loved he was. He was staying with Tom O'Connor in Liverpool one December and had gone into the city to do his Christmas shopping. He was going into shops and then taking his purchases back to his car. Merseyside Police rang Tom O'Connor to ask him to get Tommy out of the city because people were helpless with laughter just watching him walking about, everything he did was almost dangerously hilarious

[@JohnnieAshton]

I can confirm his being hilarious, off duty? I am in Leeds, a few decades ago, I was walking in what then, were known as the dark arches, they run under the main railway, near City Station. I saw Tommy on the other side of the road, he was directing a Railway porter, who had a pair of wheels for moving trunks and luggage. Seriously, I stopped, and had two minutes of unadorned entertainment. There are several side tunnels run off the main tunnel that forms the road, Tommy kept badgering this poor bloke , and directing him as to how to do his job, and getting it all wrong. Sadly I suspect the Porter will have had a tea bag slipped into his top pocket, thinking Tommy was giving him a large tip? With the words, "Here have a drink on me" I had two minutes + free entertainment, a true comedian.

[@chassetterfield9559]

Apparently, when he first went on stage, he was so paralyzed by stage fright, that he couldn't get out his prepared routine. Instead, he just stuttered & fumbled. And the audience laughed even more - because they thought that WAS his act. Same with his magic tricks. He was an accomplished magician, but the audience loved it more as the tricks 'went wrong'. So he built it into his act. And just when you thought that the trick had gone totally off the rails, he would pull out something totally astounding. You now see others copying the form. It was often said that he could just walk onto stage, say nothing, but just stare out at the audience like a rabbit in the headlights [ that stage fright again ] - and the audience would howl with laughter. Genius.

My Dad was renovating a theatre where Tommy was performing, they were trying to replace the seating before his gig and Tommy was on stage practicing his bits, they couldn't work for laughter. At one point my Dad was back stage and Tommy was just sitting on a chair, poking the closed curtains with a broom handle, when my Dad asked him what he was doing, he asked my Dad to look out the side and see if the others were laughing, my Dad told him they were in histerics as it looked like he was trying to get through the curtains and was trapped, Tommy's reply was just "That'll do then" And when my Dad went to see the show that night, he opened with him not being able to get through the curtains, everybody in histerics, and then Tommy comes bursting through the curtains looking like he'd just had the fight of his life. Everybody crying with laughter, and it was just non stop through the show. The man could bring the house down with just a broom handle.

My favourite Tommy Cooper gag is the one where he's interviewed at the jobcentre: 'Mr Cooper, we notice you've been out of work for a long time, would you consider doing voluntary work?' Tommy Cooper: ' I wouldn't do voluntary work if you paid me'.

[@jimmybisk]

Thanks for a great reaction. They don't make legends like him any more. I remember reading a book of facts many years ago and one of the stories describes how a young aspiring magician went on stage in front of a large audience & all his tricks messed up. He did that thing where you put a bit of cardboard over a glass of milk, turn it upside down and the vaccuum is supposed to hold the cardboard in place. It didn't work & spilt all over him. Other tricks were just as disasterous. He walked off stage thinking his career was over before it began & heard cheering and cries for 'more' from the audience. The story finished with the sentence 'Tommy Coopers career had just begun'. That then kind of became his act. So sad that he died on stage making people laugh, but he went out doing what he loved. I guess not everyone goes out on such a high.

I did too.. then it went on just a few moments too long.. They brought the curtain down. So Tommy Cooper famously died on stage being televised live to the nation.

[@pjgtech]

The whole thing about Tommy was that all his tricks went wrong, all though they didn't, he usually ended with a great trick that you thought went wrong, but he would turn it around at the last minute. As others have said he was actually a great magician and very accomplished, but he tended to err on the side of comedy more. He was a comedy legend in the UK, and is still sadly missed. (He passed away many years ago). If you can watch his trick with duck who plucks cards, or the one where he keeps pulling bottles out a bag, they are hilarious. Cheers

The tragedy of Tommy Cooper was that he simply made you laugh. Jimmy Tarbuck told a story of how he and Tommy went to the bar after a round of golf and he said"What you having Tom?" and Tommy Cooper said,"I'll have a whiskey and soda" and everyone was in hysterics laughing which annoyed Tommy who said "Whats so funny about wanting a whiskey and soda?" With his gags you knew what they were (he always cracked the "I backed a horse at 20 to 1 ,it came in at half past five") and you always laughed. I imagine it was a curse as much as a gift.

[@Midwinter2]

I grew up watching Tommy Cooper on TV. He was a genius, as far as I’m concerned. Combined sight gags, puns, absurdity, anecdotes, miming etc etc - and all that was just interruptions of his main act, which was magic tricks that artfully failed - until they didn't. As natural and spontaneous as he comes across, there was painstaking planning & preparation behind his act - plus decades of sheer grind. He still cracks me up. Note: the act shown here was clearly performed on Irish TV - probably the Late Late Show. That's why the audience cheers when he gets on the phone to "the GPO" - the General Post Office. Firstly, the audience would have been delighted that Tommy "localised" his act for them. Secondly, the GPO is a site of cultural & historical significance.
