    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

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

    RIP

    One of his classics

    An Irishman's wife gave birth to twins. Her husband demanded to know who the other man was.

    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!”’
