Bobby Ball, brilliant comic timing.
Cannon and Ball were brought into Saturday night tv when during the golden era.

We all have different senses of humour: I found them embarrassingly unfunny!

70s and 80s had some dire Saturday night entertainment at times. 

Little and Large, Mike Yarwood, Bernie Winters, Roger De Courcy etc. 

Fucking awful.

Benny Hill was an exception. Well IMO.

Though Sean Connery became a worldwide legendary star for his James Bond role, my favorite movie of his was "The Man Who Would Be King", with another acting heavyweight, Michael Caine. A great Kipling story and wonderful movie.

90 years old is a good, long run. RIP Sir Sean.
