The Face Says It All




Earlier today I was thinking how some of our comic legends are funny from the very moment you set eyes on them. They need say nothing. They are irresistibly daft.

Without too much thought I came up with the above four : Tommy Cooper, Ken Dodd, Stan Laurel, and Marty Feldman. All have, in the nicest possible sense, funny faces, and used them to great effect in their performances.They all had other comic genius beside looks, but hey, what a start when your clock is hilarious too !

Alas, only Doddy is still with us, packing theatres and as funny as ever he was.
