Ken Dodd should have lived forever.

He does a real diamond in the night sky

[@leplessis8179]

Never to be bettered, let alone equalled - quite simply, just one of kind. RIP, Ken Dodd.

[@franknicholasdale4595]

A man of many talents, warmth kindness a really decent person who’s professional skills out shine human kindness

[@montyzumazoom1337]

Saw Ken live many years ago. Absolute diamond, a real hard working showman.

[@emersonschosenfew838]

Ken Dodd was the paragon of the all-around entertainer, the last of a now extinct breed from a bygone era. His comedy timing, his lovely signing voice, his onstage stamina, his warm and endearing personality. We shall ne'er see his like again. A light went out in Britain when he passed away. There's none to hold a candle to him in the modern era.

[@scopex2749]

We were supposed to see him In Torquay but my other half was ill - we said we would see him next year but he passed away a few month later. The man was a true 'mucic hall' act. We lost one of our last great comedians! BLESS YOU SIR KEN we miss you greatly.

[@ericmesser1]

One of my all time favourite songs………haven’t seen this before……..thanks Ken, thanks Ralph🇦🇺

Doddy was a class act….and a proud Liverpudlian to the end……this is a fine example of a truly versatile entertainer!

[@whocaresafooc]

Miss Keneth . XxxX I seen him in torque and he asked me about me . God bless king Ken

[@MrLadeside]

A very underrated singer…… wish I’d seen him live, last of the great entertainers no longer with us !!!! Loved Doddy 😉

[@HUMPTYNUGGET]

I loved him because one of his Diddy men was called Hamish 😁 which is my name .....I loved watching Ken Dodd and his Diddy men and also Michael Bentines Potty time ..... Also is I got older I started to appreciate the more shall we say adult content of his work and he did have a great classical singing voice.....much like George Formby his songs were quite raunchy as well ....

Great to see this pop up on KZbin. A brilliant rendition of Ralph McTells 70's hit. A TV production of high quality, sadly of which now are few and far between.

I bet that they were short conversations. :-)

[@neilgriffiths3042]

Yes I met him once after his concert in Northampton , he didn't seem to want to go home ? He started telling more jokes at 1.45 a.m. ! Brilliant , they will never be another like him.

The world is a sadder and poorer place without you Ken

[@kbeesmot9928]

My old Ma was a big fan of Dodd and often said what a wonderful singer he was. I am saddened I never really listen to him and appreciate how right she was. I recollect the funnyman with the Diddy men from my formative years and only today realised wow, what a voice. This is one of, if not the best version of the song.

[@constancelee5675]

Beautiful 🎊 and voice played on my organ organ

[@stevecook8941]

This is beautiful...Ken had a wonderful voice.........finally managed to see his shows a few times abou 10 years ago....he is a true legend.....real old time entertainer.

Multi talented maestro and one of funniest comedians ever, maybe even the funniest.

[@chrisspalding7139]

I was lucky enough to be working on the stage door of the Talk of the Town in London when he was headlining a fantastic all round entertainer, a genuinely funny man and generous to all those who worked with him.

[@waterboatman1]

Quite a few comedians have good singing voices, This is a great one by Ken

Saw Richard Digance at Crystal Palace 77/8? He did requests and someone shouts "Streets of London". He plays the intro beautifully and starts to sing "Let me grab you by the throat and drag you round the streets of london, I'm not Ralph McTell and it's not my f****** song"
