What a legend. My parents used to go to the embassy club in the 80s. I would always wave to Bernard when I saw him in his white American car. In 1980s Manchester this was a sight to behold and he ALWAYS waved back!
Bernard manning gave hundreds of thousands of pounds to children's charities with no publicity at all. He was not racist in any way. Every race got the same treatment
No matter what all those terminally joyless, ‘politically correct’, self-righteous moaners say, Bernard was a true master of his art. The timing and delivery is simply impeccable. I also live the dryness in the way he doesn’t laugh at his own jokes - it us hilarious, unlike McIntyre, Evans etc
I love how he could complete switch his act for tv and was just as funny as he was in the clubs. A real British funny man hated only by the people who have allowed Britain to disappear for ever.
That is a very well thought out reply, I totally agree with what you said, it is a massive shame that Britain has gone this way. Taking the piss is what we are good at and better than any other country in the world. Our comedy is the best, was the best...RIP
Loved seeing BM live at his club or at a event somewhere. I always came away with a aching stomach and headache through laughing constantly 🙃 whatever he joked about never made me a racist that's for sure. Very sharp funny man.
Bernard Manning in his prime and at his very best. RIP Bernard. I'm Asian and no comedian had made me laugh as much as you did. You were truly class. Those who called you a racist can (in your own words) 'get fucked!'
Bernard has always been my favourite comedian and that`s not knocking some of the others out there because there is some other funny ones out there as well.
used to love saturday night tv especialy the comedians nothing like that anymore the thing to look forward to now is xfactor dancing on ice strictly come dancing stepping out etc wat a load of tripe we veiw these days bernard you were a one off never see the likes ever again
I loved Bernard Manning loved it when he said 'I've tried to make people laugh....' and I did nothing but laugh, he was born to be a comic, I really admired him, and then he said '..and for those I didn't make laugh, can get fucked'!
@@sheilabanks7240 It wasn't just those unfortunates back and forth to the toilet.Ive seen clips of him picking out people just sitting at their tables attractive young birds got off lightly but old geezers and husbands with say plain looking wife omg Bernard was savage they would get destroyed with both barrels no place for shrinking violets!!
The old vaudeville comedians of the early 20th century stole from each other its been going on forever.. The late great Merton Berle and Henny Youngman would battle it out with often the same material then later on Rodney Dangerfield..
I must say i never found anything offensive about Bernard Manning he was just a really funny comedian. Obviously he couldnt do the racist stuff toaday but it wasnt really racist because he was equally discriminating towards absolutely all races (including himself, he often referred to himself as a fat bastard) and it was so obviously just cheeky comedy really. Lighter times. Legend.
Used to do our working men's club every boxing Day lunch with a couple of strippers .the place was always packed out with men who went to see him .those of us still alive still talk of those boxing day afternoons today and how we all looked forward to see him taking the Mickey out of us
You mucky devil! Going to see Bernard were you? I bet you got there 4 hours before the show started to get a seat at the front for a birds eye view so to speak!!
You must be a woman thinking that we went to see the strippers we all went to see Bernard and the other comedians ,women used to think like you ,best boxing Day afternoon out in the country ,
Britain use to have the best comedians in the world. Nowadays I can't name 1 decent comic. PC culture has destroyed comedy in Britain, so here I am going back to the good old days when we were free and people knew how to make each other laugh.,
What a load of a old shit, racism doesn't make comedy funny, plenty of good comedy has been produced that is not "PC", this is boring old racist tripe that is just easy and generic, nothing clever or witty about it, it's just spiteful.
"We swallow greedily any lie that flatters us, but we sip only little by little at a truth we find bitter." Denis Diderot French philosopher 1713, 1784.
Great Stuff, would not be allowed to get on stage and do this now..political correctness is a manifestation of low self esteem and there is no place or excuse for it...RIP Bernard.
A black fella walks into a bar with a parrot on his shoulder and the barman says "Bloody ell....Where did thy get that!" and the parrot says "Africa....Theres bloody millions of em over there" lol
'He gets his slate out - I've paid four hundred quid for this equipment, how come you're down as far as me? And the fella writes back 'I'm drowning you nit!'' :-D FUCKING CLASSIC!!!!!!!
It takes real talent to be extremely funny while telling very clean jokes with no bad language. Of course he was even funnier when he swore and went politically incorrect also. But this proves what a great talent he was, he could do both styles and be equally funny.
There are SNOWFLAKES everywhere People who want to get offended so they can complain But there is ONE comedian today that gets away with it........ JIMMY CARR and he is on the Television ALL THE TIME
Saw him in Hemel Hempstead and he was telling gags about every nationality when Australia came into the firing line.He said how about that Rolf Harris singing about 2 little boys and Tie me Kangeroo down sport - dirty bastard what was he into.Years later many a true word in jest
A true gentleman a brittish icon. He talks the talk walks the walk and sings the way we all want to hear. A master class.
That last gag is so apt for today. R.I.P Bernard. You were the best stand up comedian bar none.
Have to say his timing was spot on. Builds the crowd up perfectly.
Never be another bernard Manning. Absolute genius RIP
This is Bernard Manning at his best.
What a legend. My parents used to go to the embassy club in the 80s. I would always wave to Bernard when I saw him in his white American car. In 1980s Manchester this was a sight to behold and he ALWAYS waved back!
When Britons weren't afraid to speak the truth and have a sense of humour. The clock needs rewinding and fast.
Totally agree
Lets Rewind the clock ... and fast... we don’t need fast... well 40 days and nights might help you.
😽🎅🤞🏻
Couldn’t agree more! Racism is a propaganda tool being used by the no good shithouses called politicians. The world has become a awful place to live
@@sammyadds6280 racism is a part of British and white culture
Love you Bernard, can't wait to see your act when I get my ticket to paradise
Bernard manning gave hundreds of thousands of pounds to children's charities with no publicity at all. He was not racist in any way. Every race got the same treatment
At the end of the day that's what they want equality so they all get the same treatment 😂
How did donating to children's charity not make him racist?
the white race didn't get the same treatment as the others-if you dont know the meaning of racist jokes
@@burlhorse61 oh yes me being irish got roasted
He said he didn’t tell jokes about disabled people even if they were black.
Very sadly missed. You were the best Bernard! RIP
Comedy gold Bernard manning the comedians today couldn’t hold a candle to him ....hilariously funny.
The sad thing is there will never be another Bernard
100 percent agree
The best stand up ever. He stated what people knew should be laughed at which means acceptance.
Ed
Pure class, superb delivery, the best UK standup ever
Need more comedians like him in the world.
No matter what all those terminally joyless, ‘politically correct’, self-righteous moaners say, Bernard was a true master of his art. The timing and delivery is simply impeccable. I also live the dryness in the way he doesn’t laugh at his own jokes - it us hilarious, unlike McIntyre, Evans etc
just pure excellence of a great comedian
The delivery on the Parrott gag... brilliant.
Genius. I nearly choked
I love how he could complete switch his act for tv and was just as funny as he was in the clubs. A real British funny man hated only by the people who have allowed Britain to disappear for ever.
Pure Genious. Don't make them like that anymore
That is a very well thought out reply, I totally agree with what you said, it is a massive shame that Britain has gone this way. Taking the piss is what we are good at and better than any other country in the world. Our comedy is the best, was the best...RIP
How can only the people who hated him allow this surely the people who loved him would have totally NOT allowed Britian to disappear for ever?
@@oldjoeclarke.
It's a shame mate. Part and parcel of work years aga was taking the piss in the work place. Called bullying now
@@barrietaylor4776 - You can still take the piss in the workplace without bullying .. very easy
Master of the standup, great delivery and told with Manning's unmistakable rough , smoker's gruff voice...... Legend
Loved seeing BM live at his club or at a event somewhere. I always came away with a aching stomach and headache through laughing constantly 🙃 whatever he joked about never made me a racist that's for sure. Very sharp funny man.
Even Stephen fry, who obviously didn't like Bernard's act!, said NOBODY could deliver a joke better than him. Best comic timing in history this bloke.
To me Ken Dodd was better. Faster and sharper delivery.
Monkhouse.
love these shows, innocent daft jokes, good humour
Born and bred in M22 and still loving Bernard.
Sorry to hear that!
Manning was one of a kind...
Funniest man that ever lived.
Old fashioned comedy,it made you laugh.
I have told the 3 ducks joke a million times, I don't care if no one laughs I know its brilliant.
byron elenica I want to hear it?
I’d forgotten that He could do ‘clean’ humour!
Best comedian ever
the best ever stand up comic
Better than today’s comedians and no swearing
He does swear on other shows, but funny!
Bernard Manning in his prime and at his very best. RIP Bernard. I'm Asian and no comedian had made me laugh as much as you did. You were truly class. Those who called you a racist can (in your own words) 'get fucked!'

I love these. Wonder how many of the audience are still alive and can speak about the show. Great simple humour, love it.

ahhhhhh..The king of comedy our Bernie.
wish he was still with us
Bernard has always been my favourite comedian and that`s not knocking some of the others out there because there is some other funny ones out there as well.
Used to watch the Comedians when I was a kid Good old days when comedy was just having a good Laugh
Good old stuff. Something old, something new, something borrowed, nothing blue....
Well I’ve just been cheered up 😅 . Proper comedy

This was quite tame for Bernard. 😂
He had to be. This was airing on ITV prime time. There was no way he would have used more risky material.

Christ, what comedian doesn't steal from another, how do you think comedy perpetuates?. Bernard young and raw here.

BM is hilarious. A misunderstood comedian who was very talented.
Brilliant, and so were all the comedians.
Best comedian ever,superb,did not give a shit!
I cannot remember if Bernard Manning told Welshman jokes but if he did I ( being a Welshman ) would thank God for the ability to laugh at myself!
"They want to stop singing in Wales and get some fucking coal up. We can all sing if we've got fuck all to do all day, can't we?"
Welsh farmer on his driving test the examiner asks, “ Can you make a u turn?” “Make a ewe turn? I’ll make its fucking eyes water”🤣🤔🤔
proving he WAS a cracking comic
"Yella yella" - had forgotten that one!!
