I'm saving my dancing shoes for someone else 

 

Whilst I can't say I would celebrate any death I also cannot equate
popularity with talent (if that were the case Roy "Chubby" Brown would
be Prime Minister) . . Bernard Manning was a mediocre comedian who
tapped into the inherent racism of a generation . .

	Because, he was racist but bloody popular - what does that say
about society in the 70's (at his peak)?? I don't dance on anyone's
grave.......

	IMHO he was a very funny comedian who didn't give a shit about
what anyone thought about him. He was entitled to his own opinion
whether you agree with it or not and entitled to say it. If you take
away that right just to be politically correct I'm not sure where we
would be. Probably with us smokers outside without any fair debate. I
would have thought that Jokers would not condemn so quickly. Hey, but
I'm wrong again about jokers. Not willing to live and let live, so go on
flame me, but it's not what I thought the joke was about. I liked the
guy. I may not have agreed with his opinions but he had the right to
have opinions that were different to mine. But finally, so say it's good
news that anyone is dead is just sick!

		A 'controversial' British comedian generally labelled as
a racist for the jokes he told although he always denied being so.
		On the flip side, he regularly gave thousands to a
variety of charities in particular disabled, disadvantaged or terminally
ill children.
		In the latter part of his life he spent a great deal of
time in his underpants: "a man needs to feel comfortable" he once told
an interviewer.
		Whether that sentiment ever extended to anyone sharing
the same room is debatable.
