Farewell, Humph, I barely knew ye!
I was just checking a little background info about the comedy show "I'm sorry I haven't a clue" (BBC Radio - I got the idea for the two youtube video *bleeps* from there) when I found that this May the chairman of the show, Humphrey Littleton, had died.
To me Humph was "only" a witty old guy who could make me laugh tears when hosting that show, which was a parody on guest panel game shows - but I learned that for many people he's been one of the big Jazz legends.
You have to respect full blooded artists like him:
And to round it all up one bit with the Humphrey I knew and loved:
- ‹ previous
- 85 of 299
- next ›
Well...
The man was blessed by getting to live with his talent to the end. It's always a tragedy to see people loose it in old age... the man really had his wits about him too.
So true
I just added this here via edit to the above article, here it is again:
A classic episode of "I'm Sorry I Haven't A Clue" on BBC Radio. Enjoy! And don't be mad if you don't get *every* joke - there's some running gags going on for literally over 30 years! :)
