Amazing career and a lovely man by all accounts. One of the music hall greats.

Re: RIP Roy Hudd
I'm not sure there will be many left now from the music hall era now.
Also brilliant as Archie Shuttleworth, the undertaker, in Corrie.

Agreed always enjoyed the News Huddlines on Saturday radio before the football. Clever takes on the week's news with June Whitfield.

Re: RIP Roy Hudd
Remember listening to the News Huddlines on the radio, driving down to the match on a Saturday morning.
As they say , they don't make them like that anymore.

Re: RIP Roy Hudd
A very clever and a very funny man - one of the old school.
I too remember The News Huddlines with great affection.
RIP Roy, and thanks for entertaining me down the years.

Re: RIP Roy Hudd
Not too many of the old school left now. My childhood and younger days are fast disappearing with every one that goes. Same with the old bands I loved. Greg Lake, Keith Emerson, Chris Squire, Neil Peart and a whole host of others too numerous to mention.
Anyone remember the days when we all thought we'd live forever.
Life is short guys and gals.
Don't know how many on here will know the old Neil Diamond song Done Too Soon? A fast paced song listing a whole host of famous people from history and entertainment, which then slows to a mournful finale:
And each one there
Has one thing shared
They have sweated beneath the same sun
Looked up in wonder at the same moon
And wept when it was all done
For being done too soon
For being done too soon
For being done.

Re: RIP Roy Hudd
Understated how clever he was. Was quite a prolific writer for other comedians and an intelligent man. In the Barry Cryer category. People don't realiseFunkydrummer wrote: ↑Mon Mar 16, 2020 2:10 pmA very clever and a very funny man - one of the old school.

just how much of the stuff they laugh at from the 50's and 60's to today, not attributed to these two, was written by them.

Not sure if you are trying to be funny but it is Hudd not Hull.

Re: RIP Roy Hudd
Rod Hull died 20-odd years ago, after falling off his roof whilst trying to adjust a TV aerial so that he and his son could watch a Champions’ League Match.
It was the first(and only) time in football history that Hull went down as a result of a game between Man Utd and Inter Milan.

He was the last real link to authentic Music Hall. He knew so much about the performers past and the history and evolution.
As someone stated earlier, yes, was known for his impersonation of Flanagan and Allen. So much more though.
A loss.

I was waiting for a Beamish post when I saw this news. Fair play morpheus.

Re: RIP Roy Hudd
Him, yes.
Music hall I'm not going to mourn for.
I see that they are going to rerun some old Saturday night at the palladium shows on talking pictures. I have a feeling that a lot of material may need to be edited out, and that it might prove to be one of those things that old people go on about as they suffer from rose tinted memory syndrome.
Lots of the dramas on talking pictures I really enjoy, but 60% of the comedy is just awful. They've had showings of old laurel and Hardy, Arthur askey, Norman wisdom among others. Some of the post war comedy films about national service etc are even worse, if that is possible.
