@WilliamSmith-mx6ze peter tatchell made himself a nice cosy corner as a sort of gay Ayatollah: you didn't elect me but you'll damn well respect me. Funny, considering his background.
@@WilliamSmith-mx6ze There's a great story about when the militant brigade were picketing The Generation Game. Larry invited them up to his dressing room. One of them said the word 'homosexual'. Larry covered his dog's ears and said, 'you can't say that word in here, you'll frighten my poodle!' Larry - total comic genius. Love him!
Of his time, never to be repeated - thank goodness I lived through that kinder, gentler period where people listened to raconteurs like Larry. A beautiful soul.
Larry on modern television: "I can't bear all this people getting into bed with everybody... it frightens my dog". God love him he was hilarious and never any need for bad language or ugliness.
A lovely gentle man. So natural and funny. He worked so hard to achieve the success that came his way. A uniquely British star of tremendous ability. Sadly missed.
What you saw was what you got. No acting, just a natural warm human being. He may of loved Torquey but the love of his home town was stronger and returned for the last few years of his life. he loved Nuneaton and the people of Nuneaton loved him
George Reid he was like that in person. He was a very generous person who did a lot of charity work for free in his home town of Nuneaton. In the pub he was just another customer and would chat and laugh with anyone who wanted to talk to him
You can tell that they are both very fond of each other, and yet there is a cheekiness about the interview that stops it from becoming too much of an old pal's act. Lovely stuff :-)
More people like Larry on TV now days please. He was so funny. My nan loved him. She felt she could talk to him. Me poor grandfather never got a word lol.
Love Larry Grayson. A unique comedian that isn't seen anymore, such warmth and love in what he did, no sweating or racism, just pure comedy from a sincere and wonderful Man. I have cried with laughter watching the generation game, can't get enough of watching him. I'm sure I can hear the angels pissing themselves with laughter on a quiet star lit nite. Good nite Larry, and everard X leo
What a wonderful story teller and true gentleman. Sadly people like this are never seen on television today and certainly do not have the talent or charisma. R.I.P Larry ❤
Great upload. Both Laz and Terry at their peak here. Larry was always proud of his roots in Nuneaton, and he was very much loved for his kindness and sincerity.
Two of the best people ever in show business, Larry Grayson and Terry Wogan... They don't come much better than that. " ' tis a gay day t' be sure. " God bless 'email both.
So sad that Larry Grayson isn’t with us today. A very genuine and comedic individual who had such amazing talent. He could draw a laugh with just a purposeful look or a quick comment. He never resorted to swearing or some of the distasteful humour we find today. Despite being sorely missed, it’s great that there are so many recordings available of him, so we can continue to laugh with him today.
It's sad because now we have vile people like Graham Norton that ain't got a clue about comedy so have to be as rude as they can get away with just to shock. And all Norton jokes about is sticking something up your bum or other gay sex innuendos
Terry - "Are you going to cut out all the unsavoury bits" Larry - "No you're in it" 🤣🤣🤣🤣 absolutely love Larry Grayson he was hilarious, kind and had great one liners. Larry - "Aren't you going?. Fancy. Well, you're everywhere else, aren't you?"
Always remember watching him every Saturday night,he was so funny the whole family would be laughing, I would always remember my mum saying, he's not really is is to my dad 🤣🤣🤣,I'm 53 now and still makes me Laugh.
such a nice chit chat. i love larry graysons comedy and what a nice gentleman. thanks for uploading this. i think i have watched everything else on him here on youtube
It's weird how random life is, the zeitgeist collision occured very late for him but somehow it had to be that way, he was like a hodge-podge of things familiar to audiences at the time, a bit Dr Finlay meets Katherine Hepburn meets Frankie Howerd but a genuinely warm sincere man which as he says is the key, widely loved and missed
Time has robbed these people away from us.. We should learn from this and appreciate those around us right now before they and we are robbed out of time too.. Dont dwell on sadness and disappointment.. Focus on that fact.. We will be gone.. One day soon..it comes quicker than we think.
