  • @walshesco I agree! During the war my Dad was stationed in England from Canada and if I remember correctly, he talked about seeing him perform. A great talent he was, in the vaudeville tradition. We will not see his like again!

  • Wow! I had forgotten about this, I am now 55 but as a child, this bloke's films livened up dreary, rainy Sunday afternoons in the Sixties. Takes me back 40 odd years. God bless you George!

  • so bloody brilliant it hurts the brain!!

  • I remember the version done by Herman's Hermits.

  • Good music and awesome entertainment brought me here

  • I remember seeing this live on TV

  • he loooks old and fat here!

  • Frank Skinner brought me here

  • What a genius. He looked a true gentleman. My grandpa says he saw him IN PERSON! JEALOUS!

  • Just after the war we rushed the cinema to "experience" good old George in Bergen

    Norway where I lived for my first 36 yrs. And now this from Marktuson123 THANKS A

    LOT; George Formby is a live memory to me, and millions of others from the "black and

    white"-era. Thanks a lot from Stralsund, Germany (Former GDR)
