I met Mr Collier outside a nightclub in Longton Stoke On Trent whilst waiting for a taxi , a true gentleman he was my favourite comedian of all time , he didn't have to use bad language or any of that nonsense just simple facial expressions [ like The Chicken Routine ] sleep well Mr Collier and thanks for being part of my growing up and making me laugh
Hi Terry How wonderful for you to meet him. He did seem a very down-to-earth guy and he's humor was pure and funny to everybody. Children and grandmas could watch it. Best Alan
My favourite too. He was so funny. Loved Al Read too.
He was wonderful. My favourite comedian. Just loved him, he was so funny. Bless him wherever he is now. A natural.
A great man with a big heart that filled the world he lived in with laughter. Fondly remembered.
Oh Norman was a great entertainer bless him.❤
Norman had another way of using the microphone gag, He had a piece of perspex that was shaped like a car door winding window, he used to wind it down to berate someone, whilst still berating he'd wind it back up.
I think we've lived through the best of comedians and comedy, modern day types do nothing for me.
RIP Norman
I've found it,starts at 1:42

Oh yes now you said it. I remember it. It was another gem. Well done
The microphone gag is an absolute classic gets me every time!
Saw Norman, Frank Carson and Duncan Norville in a show on Blackpool North pier, He was one of the best acts I've seen, He didn't need to say anything to get laughs RIP Norman
Norman was a natural every time I saw is face I started laughing what a brilliant entertainer nobody will replace him today.
Hi Steve from what I've picked up he just was a really nice guy. It wasn't so hammered by show business and he just did a nice sweet routine that even children would love. He was very unique
His chicken walk routine always creased me as he had studied the movements of a chicken so accurately. he didn't need to say anything and would soon have his audience howling with laughter
Always seemed a very stable, nice man whose personal life was not taken up with drama, stress and conflict!! I remember him well from my childhood and what a beautiful graveyard! Just such a lovely place to be laid to rest. Rest in peace, Norman. You seemed to have made a lot of people very happy.
Nice clean fun,made my great gran laugh ,she had to run to the loo poor old luv!😊
He was brilliant, even now when my daughters chat with me and the phone curs out I say to them oh the phone's gone a bit Norman Collier. Lol
The sad part about growing old is that you know more people that have passed away than those that are still around now and if it wasn't for today's social media many would have passed without notice.
I know what you mean, but it's nice to remember these people and they had a part of our history on a different era. Let's keep them alive in our minds
He always had me in stitches with his chicken ruoteen
Me too Marilyn nice to see you Alan
I do vaguely remember Norman Collier being on TV although I don't know much about him. As a new subscriber, I really have to say I am enjoying your channel very much, you are reminding me of people I hadn't thought about in years, some I had no idea had gone, thank you. I am slowly, but surely making my way through your videos 😊
So funny this guy always made me
Larf. Loved your impression of him so funny. ❤ you Alan Class
The problem is Paul that people laughed at me not with me....😭
Sometimes we forget how simple things make us laugh and the people that bring it to us comedy has changed alot but I still crave the simple nice comedy that brings so many laughs with it's simplicity
Hello Michelle, it was a great clean family comic that did nothing but make people feel happier. It was great at his job. Thank you for the comment Alan
Remember him so well. It was a different type of humour back than. But those were the best days. I watched the comedians I actually saw Canon and ball I thought they were funny. Another very interesting video thanks for sharing I enjoyed it. Love from Holmfirth West Yorkshire 💙
Hello again Gill as a duo in comedy I thought they were the funniest with Bobby a little bit of a genius. I wonder if you did the routine where is heckling from the crowd? Maybe they only did that in the early days. Well, not everybody knew they were a duo 😂
@@MotorHomeBeepBeep yes one on stage the other shouting from the back then he came down the stairs onto the stage it was funny 😁
Saw him lots of times when he appeared with the bachelors we were fans of theirs. He was great
Hi Ave Of course I remember both. I didn't know they were appearing on the same bill. Lovely piece of history and memories
I was little when I knew him not very good memory of him thought he was something special thanks anyway ❤❤❤❤
What a very well kept cemetery its a credit to the village.
My late mother laughed so much a Norman the tears rolled down her cheeks.
Missed by all.
Out of all of these comedy acts of that time.. Norman had to be the top of the heap... such a funny guy.. loved him... my sister worked with him years ago and said that he would walk the hotel corridor first thing in the morning doing his chicken act..so sad.. I didn't know he had passed xxx
i saw norman walking down his street when i was working down he was going for his morning paper and he was very nice always said hello
Really enjoying catching up with your videos,xx
That's really sweet of you Ann. Big thank you alan
I always thought that Norman's headstone should have contained a line with intermittent spelling, I'm sure he would have approved.
I often say his name when I get a work call that’s got a bad connection, if you’re not asked who’s that, you know the other person is over a certain age! Funny man, good clean comedy.
A Most excellent Comedian , God Bless him.
Hahaha, never forget Norman Collier, he was an absolute hoot! 🥰 Not to forget his car door routine either heheee. Back in 1981 I was in Great Yarmouth with my sister and the daft beggar came up behind us with that blasted fire extinguisher he had, and he chased me and my sister all the way down the sea front, tying to blow up our skirts 😆😆😆😆
what a great man thanks for the video alan great one
Hi Dave, yes i got a few coming up that I love so i lucky thank you for the comment
Yea the microphone gag was brilliant he had it of to a T Nice one Alan
James cheers
He was great
A unique comedian that still makes me laugh.
Hi Alan Norman will always make me laugh all the best Paul
Hello Paul if you don't mind, I think I was very funny trying to imitate the chicken but for all the wrong reasons :-) Norman was lovely
Well you certainly fooled me with your microphone routine. I thought strange you are normally such a perfectionist you would have deleted this surely . Brilliant.
Loved Norman Collier such a talent very unique and very individual and hilarious.
They certainly don’t make them like this anymore and to be honest I don’t think his material has really dated to be honest. I think it could still stand up today.
Brilliant , Alan ❤️
Hello John, it was just a bit of fun I was messing about. Couldn't really do it so well but who cares. John himself was very funny with the broken mic. Quite unique. Take care mate. Alan
@@MotorHomeBeepBeep You did a great rendition Alan, truly it was brilliant
Frist time watching ur channel,n have 2 say I enjoyed it,so thank you.
God bless rip
Thanks again Alan,another great video! I didnt think the chicken routine was very funny but the broken microphone was brilliant
Hello Richard, especially when I did it :-)
Very informative Alan, to be honest I hadn't heard of him. Nice video 👍
Norman was a g....t en...t...ner 🤣🤣
That info you mentioned about the broken mic is wrong. The broken mic routine actually happened at Wheatley Working Mens Club, Doncaster. That's the club in the clip. I lived up the road from it! Gigged it myself a nuber of times!
Thank you for visiting and paying respects to these people, going places where we cant all go and allowing us to visit through your videos. Your videos are so interesting but I do wish (if possible) you could leave them some flowers on our behalf. Some of these graves have nothing and look so sad. Is there a way to "buy some flowers" in the same way other vloggers can " buy me a coffee"??
Keep up the good work!💗
Hello Andrea, please believe me I totally understand what you're saying I feel the same but I'm not a big fan of cut flowers because I think they're dying the moment you cut them. I've been thinking of having a real plant or paying for a representative plant that's will last but I can leave it to everyone. It's a great suggestion and I want to do it in one way or another. But thank you, I appreciate it for sure. Good night Alan
Hi Alan you are very brave to try and do the Norman Collier but it made me laugh. Great videos always. Thank you, Pauline
Very Kind Pauline i tried :-)
T-o Nor-m-n [t-tap-tapping t-i mik-e]. Hail fellow, well met. Thank you, MH B B. I always remember Norman, initially, from the late 1960s ... Obviously I could be wrong (I was born 29 March 1951 ...).
Stay free, Norman Collier Esq. Rab 🎤 🍻 😎 🕊
RIP NC.
I met the gentleman. I ended up cleaning up after him, he had been sick.!!! He had come to our hospital to present a minibus. He visited a children's ward, he became ill and I was sent to clean up!!
My claim to fame ha ha!
Realy funny man
Still funny watching him
He was Eileen best Alan
Hey Alan great fella Norman was see him in person in Blackpool many years ago he was a truely one off guy so so funny sadly missed ....... Any chance you could video Alvin stardust for me Alan please I try too find out the cemetery ok send u details Cheers mate
Hello Andy, it's often said but it was a one-off you couldn't mistake him and how lucky he was to see him live. Lovely memory. Alvin would be great. I remember reading a story about a guy who owned a pub in Bradford and he said he was a very nice chat. There's a picture of him pulling a pint. I always thought it was a good singer and amusing in style. Love to do him.
I love my coo ca choo... Take care mate alan@endeavourcottage.co.uk 07813779273
Hard to tell which ones Norman!😂
Thank you Ann That's what the talent scout told me after he watched the video 😎
That mic routine is harder than it looks.
Yep, that's why I was crap but Norman was the man.
Hi Alan crystal here just watched this video very entertaining I thought I saw you scratching your bum on film only joking you are fun enjoy your videos I guess this guy was funny but personally I found it a bit annoying not my thing but much respect to him rip mr collier thanks Alan ❤️😊👍🏻
Hello Crystal, I actually remember thinking I did. If you're getting itch you get an itch 😎 when I have made them I don't watch them back only once. Hey just about the unique style of so I think some people have an affection for him from the past including myself. Thank you. Lovely comment. I'll try not to scratch in future. Bye alan
Sleep well Norman
Norman ( ib dib ib di ib be di )
Collier was a one off.

You don't have to tell me and you wouldn't be able to do it.... Maybe I could be a comedian for all the wrong reasons 😂
