Sad to hear that news. I remember I first saw him many years ago on a TV programme called 'The Comedians'.

I always liked his personality, style and of course his jokes. He was a memorable and class act.
RIP Frank Carson
'it's the way I tell'em'

Sad news, everyone knows the good comedians as they stand out. Frank stood out as one the most recognized comedians in the UK.

Another classic

His account of going into a public toilet in London: ‘There was a sign on the door, it said: “Beware of homosexuals!” I went inside, and there was another sign on the mirror . . . it said: “Beware of homosexuals!” And then, as I was leaving, I saw there was something written on the skirting-board. I bent over to look at it . . . it said: “You’ve been warned twice!”’
