the sharpest wit and humour you could ever come across, a great shame the sad demise caught up in unfortunate circumstances. It is good to see he died an innocent man
They weren't 'unfortunate circumstances'. They were from an evil little female spurred on by our PC feminists. A sexual abuse allegation can kill a man, and does. Sick society...
@Seamus Lannon So is it impossible or illegal to have more than one hero in your world Seamus? You obviously like to spread the bullshit online though. So in which copy of the Daily Enquirer did you read that Muhammad Ali was a _"great friend"_ of Elvis Presley's then? You're as bad a liar as Freddie Starr claiming he once met Elvis backstage, or that he used to share a room with John Lennon when they were supposedly on tour together. Seriously Seamus, why bother posting anything at all if all you're going to post are lies?
Staffie Blue Elvis was Freddie Stars idol that’s always been common knowledge Freddie always made a point of it in his Elvis Presley tribute acts that Freddie did Mohammed was also his idol Freddie star was dynamite RIP Freddie your with your idol,s on an by the way Mohammed was good friends with Elvis before you run your nasty mouth done some research you’ll find it’s true
@@maxineneild7352 Oh Cheeky, your stupidity, spelling, and lack of punctuation is so difficult to make any sense of. Yes, Elvis Presley *was* always one of Freddie Starr's idols. So what? I've never suggested otherwise you cretinous little oaf! I simply pointed out that Starr never met Elvis in his life, backstage or otherwise. Neither have I ever suggested that Muhammad Ali wasn't another idol of Freddie Starr's. Again, what point are you trying to make? In addition, Freddie Starr wasn't dynamite. You're mixing him up with nitroglycerin combined with additional sorbents. *That's* dynamite you clot! Freddie Starr, or _'Frederick Leslie Fowell'_ as he was known as to the police, was a paedophile, a child abuser, a drug dealer, a woman beater, a burglar, and a thief. And he's not with his idols at all. He's now in a fridge, and will be buried 6ft under at 1pm tomorrow... along with all the other worms and slugs! And finally, as for Muhammad Ali being good friends with Elvis Presley, once again you're completely wrong my little dullard. I hate to break it to you, but Googling two names does NOT constitute even bad research, let alone any valid research. Are you really so stupid as to think that just because there are lots of photo's of the two of them together on the internet, it means they were even friends, let alone close friends? You silly silly woman! It's called PUBLICITY you halfwit. I mean seriously, a racist white supremacist Christian from Mississippi being friends with a black Muslim from an ex-Kentucky slave family? What kind of medication are you on Cheeky? Now go away and find yourself a brain!
Staffie Blue no charges against him prove me wrong oops you can’t god shite sick of people like you with your disgusting mouths but your just some miserable bastard with no life making up story’s to make you feel better go to hell
I think you made a typo... just a small one. I think you really meant to type; _"At last, another member of the entertainment world's paedophile ring is dead. Rot in hell you sad and depraved dirty old man"._
Laughter is was missing nowadays with all this tyrannical PC crap. Laughter is the best medicine ! Freddie was a uniquely talented guy and boy he could belt out a good tune! RIP Freddie!
@@deanhannah2138 It was lighthearted banter for God's sake. And all these Freddie Starr fans banging on about how they hate political correctness. Oh the irony!😧😉😉
@@johnhughes8466 Sorry John, you're quite right, I did miss out a comma. It should have read; @John Hughes LMFAO Errrrrr, you DO know he's dead, right?😂😂😂😂😂
@@deanhannah2138 _"No conviction was ever brought to justice..."_ What kind of English was that Dean? Incidentally, he was arrested a total of 41 times between 1968 and 2019, and charged in 37 of those cases, of which he pleaded guilty to in 35 of them. Any more intelligent thoughts my little cabbage?
@@DrAnne-mc8er A tired one presumably but the point was still recognised by you so what's your issue?? For what it's worth, Freddie was arrested 4 times in relation to sexual offences (operation Yewtree) and WAS NEVER CONVICTED. He's dead now and never will be prosecuted so let it lie. It's the same for Michael Jackson who was taken to court over these allegations many times but NEVER CONVICTED and NEVER WILL BE. Your bullshit all over these pages says everything btw, go and find something to do other than trolling.
@@deanhannah2138 _"A tired one..."?_ I haven't got a clue what you even meant by that one Dean? My *issue* Dean, is that you claimed he was never convicted which simply isn't true, as demonstrated by his police and court records over a 51 year period. Yes, he was arrested four times under _'Operation Yewtree'_ which I didn't deny. However it's interesting that you say he was never convicted in that particular case, yet when he tried to sue the Claimant for defamation of character, not only did he lose his case, but the Judge also made a determination that Starr must also pay all the Claimant's legal costs in addition to his own. The Judge going on to say that Starr *did* do what the Claimant accused him of, but due to the time that had passed since the assault, an informal statute of limitations meant that his conviction could not be secured if the trial had gone ahead. In short, he definitely did it, but she'd left it too late to bring to court. And you think that makes an innocent man do you Dean? What drugs are you on fella?
He stayed at the hotel my uncle managed 20 years or so ago in Barbados. He is literally as mad in real life. It's not an act. He'd like order a steak and they'd bring it to him and he'd respond I didn't order a plate. So the steak is served straight on the table. That's just an example.
OK, so running through everything you said, no, he's *not at all* as mad in real life (literally or otherwise), unless you're referring to his Alzheimer's which would be a bit sick? Yes, it *was* an act, because in real life, we know he used to spend his time beating his kids, beating his wives, and abusing children. And the _'steak-with-no-plate'_ gag sounds side-splitting. Sorry, I meant sounds shit and not even vaguely funny.

James Smith Freddie Starr had a bad stutter since he was a child Freddie has never been a drinking an yes he had prescription drug addiction got clean way before this show so no I don’t believe he was of his head he was naturally full of life that’s what comedians do why do people have to be so fucking negative
@@maxineneild7352 I was speaking as a fan actually not being negative I just thought he was more pumped up than usual please read my other threads as I'm a big fan there is no need to attack me is there
@@maxineneild7352 Are you one of those politically correct people who have to point out that someone is politically out of order for saying something negative because I don't live by those laws I'm afraid ! I'm a big fan of Freddie Starr too but he did drugs back then
Freddie had a speech impediment and he controlled it well not without difficulty. Not many people knew that. Fluent speech not a gift everyone has and many take fluency of speech for granted. When can't express verbal words very difficult indeed.
@@lindacurrie8817 Yeh he clearly has a stutter - a constant lack of verbal fluidity when he talks in a "normal" way. When he is doing an impression or singing or talking in an affected way he is OK though - different part of the brain being used. I guess all his antics were partly a way of covering up his speech impediment that he was probably self-conscious about. He does look like he is on coke here. He had an amazing number of talents though. His verbal mimicry and visual mimicry were astonishing. His impression of the way Ali moved was brilliant.
@@Zooney1 Yes for Freddie fluency off speach was difficult. Do not think speech was a stutter more of hesitant fluency. Nothing worse when cognitive ability unable to express verbal expressions. Freddie found interviews extremely difficult. Freddie singing no problems as lyrics from song words do not require thinking thought process words are their from start to finish. Freddie a beautiful voice. As a comedian again Freddie in control of his abilities to perform and what a genius magnificent funny comedian he was. Will never be another Freddie. To think how he died, no one there very sad indeed. All those celebrities within an Audience With Freddie enjoyed him so much. Silence is golden eh! Do you know if Freddie flown home to receive a well deserved, respectable funeral? Fit for the star he was.
@@lindacurrie8817 It was as if he had so many talents that he didn't know which one to express. As a hapless magician he is as good as Tommy Cooper. As a visual comedian he is as good as Rowan Atkinson and Norman Wisdom. As an impressionist both verbal and visual he is as good as anyone I have seen. As a impressionist singer he could actually sound really good as well as authentic. Then he was bloody good looking too. The only things he didn't have going for him was the stutter and being short!
E un vero talento artistic mo se studia una scena da improvvisar si puo esser portaty ma tutto il resto é recitato nei minimi particolari e così che la scena sorprende viene conquistata diventa comicità e la parte piu' difficile e non facile come sembrerebbe metto un bel me peace thank ♥️
12:41 "This should be our show we don't need him" lol! Completely agree, never liked Parkinson, boring prat. However this whole vid is great. Best thing I've seen for ages cheers for uploading
Compelling and sometimes uncomfortable bit of TV history. Freddie Starr's manic nervous energy against Ali's quietly menacing passiveness make this as tense a chat show I've ever seen (without anybody walking off). Thanks for the post hulk. Parky is Lord of all righteousness, all kneel before he.
Defo under the influence during this interview. He usually cracks me up, but he just seemed a bit weird in this one. Stuttering his words and going off on random tangents constantly.
The problem with Freddie is that he seems to cross the line many time, he pushes it too far. As Jimmy Carr said, "I don't know where the line is until I cross it" and Freddie had that same problem, he always pushed it too far going from it being funny to just embarrassing and uncomfortable to watch.
Yes the word nigger was used a lot back then. eg it was used by the Major in Fawlty Towers, though has probably been edited out for today's easily offended generation. Strange how is has become so feared a word.
_"Running Bear"_ was originally recorded by Johnny Preston in 1960, and written by Jiles Perry Richardson Jr. - also known by his stage name _"The Big Bopper"._ Sadly, Richardson Jr. died in an airplane crash along with Buddy Holly and Ritchie Valens just outside Mason City (Iowa) on 3 February 1959. The tragic event was later memorialized in 1971 by Don McLean as _"The day the music died"_ in his hit _"American Pie"._ Here endeth the lesson!
jason harvote-a lot of the english bands from early on sounded American until they spoke.That's nothing new. Probably started with the American blues & soul music that influenced them.(I'm guessing)
@@DrAnne-mc8er its not has embarrassing has all the comments you're posting... Proper sick silly bastard you are with nothing better to do with yourself..
