Used to listen to Arthur on night shift when driving petrol tankers; can't tell you what a lift it gave me at 11o/clock and made it easier to face the night ahead.

I've soon a few live acts and only 2 made me cry with laughter. Lee Evans and this genius. Thank you so much Steve Delany and the alter ego that is Count Arthur Strong

I feel the stage act is his forte. Love it much more than the telly series. Loved the radio series too. Some people just don't get him, though, which in itself is funny.

A friend and I went to a living museum the week after the hospital episode on TV. We asked one of the guides something and she replied "It's outside my field of expertise, I'm afraid" and we only just managed to thank her and her away before falling about laughing.

They've obviously got no sense of direction. That's not right. They've got no direction of humour. SENSE OF HUMOUR. That's what I said in the first place if you'd botheted to listen.

Some of you might remember a brilliant British ventriloquist called Arthur Worsley (AW). What you may not know however is the role that Count Arthur Strong had in helping AW break into the big time. It all happened one night in the Shoulder Of Mutton. Count Arthur had just finished downing his usual 8 pints of medicinal sploosh. "Well its been delightful talking to you AW" said Arthur 'ëven though you haven't said a bloody word all night! As for your talkative mate sitting on your knee however, all I can say is I feel like smashing his face in, stunted growth or no stunted growth. The little bas***** ". The rest as they say is history, I really do.

I'm not one for mincing me worms , but to remember dear dear Arthur Worsley " before he died , before he ran himself over with that flymo thing " he never said a bad word about any thing or anyone , mind you he was a bit simple .
@zacmumblethunder74669 ай бұрын
Arthur Worsley was briliiant. No other ventriloquist came close. Ed Sullivan was impressed with how he could do his act in close up on TV because his technique was so good. I'm so happy that it was CAS who gave him a foot up it when he needed it most.
