Just heard of the sad news that Sir Ken Dodd has passed away. Well loved comedian, the last of the music hall greats. With his passing, it is the end of an era. R.I.P.

So sad to hear this. I saw him live in a show in the 70s and he had the audience--including me--crying with laughter. A great loss to British comedy. RIP Sir Ken and thank you for so much laughter over so many years.

Was he still performing or did he retire ?
My mum went to see him a few times over the years .

I'm sure she said his shows would run about an hour over each time

I believe he had been performing until a few weeks prior to his death.

I think the show I saw live did run late. You certainly got your money's worth when you went to see Ken Dodd, and his act was packed with young kids to grannies, and they all laughed just as much.

Very sad news, my parents saw him a few years ago & he was performing for 3 years well into his 80s.

Before Ken Dodd, only people in Liverpool would have heard of Knotty Ash, but he helped to put the place on the map, and made it just as famous as he was.

He was a regular at the Royal Concert Hall in Nottingham, playing one night at least once a year - in fact, I am certain that he did his first professional night in Nottingham as well.
