- From "Tarby & Friends", Norman demonstrates what has made him the 'Comedians Comedian' with the aid of a few random props. and of course that intermittent microphone!Jimmy T. explodes with laughter at Norman's mad antics, as do the audience!
Приколы
I'm his great-grandson :) I was at his funeral today, he had a great send off and was a brilliant man! :)
Sam Corner Aww. Your great-grandad was one of my earliest memories of comedians. He was so funny - especially with that faulty microphone act! 😂May he rest in peace.
Sam, a lovely man was Norman.Great comic too
It's 2019 I'm nearly 60 and this still makes me laugh every time!
I love to watch this especially when I’m feeling down this really picks me up and makes me laugh, this man had pure talent and to be honest an absolute genius with that act , 👍
I remember watching the video of his funeral many year ago. What a performer, everything was original. A true great. RIP
His microphone gag always makes me laugh so hard! - When ever I hear someone having an intermittent problem with their microphone, I know it's ol Norman playing around! lol!
My great grandad :) Such an amazing man!
A very genuine and funny man, a sad loss but we was lucky to have him.
I loved his unique routine! Dearly missed! Rest in legend Norman!
Oh my word, he makes me howl with laughter! 😅 A born performer and natural funny man! I never tire of seeing him.... completely nuts at times but sooooooo funny! 😆 xx
Watched him twice today. Pmsl
Hilarious 😆
Great comedian, with a style of his own. Proud to have seen him LIVE in the 70's and a proper Northern lad too.
Norman the Madman of original comedy One of the last vaudevillians to tread the working club scene .You gave us many laughs over the years on tv and on stage RIP Norm !!
I always loved the car window, makes me laugh even now. Great gags, great man. A true legend.
Original, brilliantly funny and sadly-missed, Norman Collier.
I just watched this because of Bob mortimers book
What a fabulously funny man, I laughed at everything he did, why couldn’t he be immortal? There’s no justice!!
Just watched this for the first time and one of the funniest routines I've watched, hilarious
Few comedians can make me laugh - Norman is one who achieves it every time - tears in my eyes with laughing bless him
the late great norman collier...brilliant classic british stand up
R.I.P Norman you made us laugh for years and will still be doing in the great stage in the sky
That's how it's done !! Entertainment at its best . RIP Norman .
S wright exactly totally original for its time. Never be equalled.
Great to see all the love for this great comedian, My Mrs was out feeding her chickens in the snow that's what bought Norman to mind. RIP NORMAN thanks for the Fantastic comedy and the memories to go with it !! Never forgotten ❤❤
Faulty mic, chicken impersonation, thank you and goodnight. Legend.
This man was years ahead of his time - Zoom meetings are a lot like this everyday
I met him once. I was testing the stage gear when he walked in.
We had 5 minutes of doing his Mic routine together.
Got a special place in my heart has Norman.
Great times
Passed on today. RIP Norman. Thanks for all the laughs and fun. From all accounts a lovely guy too.
There wil never be anyone like Norman. Very funny. I would love to have met him.
The late great Norman is still funny to this day. He is best known for his "broken mic" routine. It came about when his microphone was cutting out for real and the audience thought it was part of the act so he incorporated it in his repertoire.
Even today when we get a poor signal on the mobile fone we say you av gone like norman collier
One of the funniest comedians ever
You have to admire Tarbuck...how far he went .....with almost nil fucking talent !
bofursgun

bofursgun

"I saw two snake in the load"...
Cobras ?
" it's true i swear it... cookie boy "
Nice to see that Tarbuck branched out from comedy. Only yesterday, I was having a nice moppacinno in one of the shops in his coffee empire.
Lytton333 you're thinking of cafe nero.
A true original, grew up with your comedy, RIP Norman X
Thanks Norman thanks for the good memories rest in peace 🇬🇧
So loved this guy as a kid, still cracks me up now at 37!!!
Been watching comedy for over 50 years and, obviously, was aware of Norman but never watched him much but saw Bernard Manning on here which led to BM's funeral video which highlighted Norman's funeral which highlighted this clip. SUPERB !!!
One of the Absolute Best Comedians ever. He cracks me up every time. His family must miss him terribly. You can't stop yourself from laughing, he had the gift and was genuinely funny without trying hard. what a great loss to show business..
Norman was very original and very very funny...one of my favourites.
God bless him.
He was brilliant,he still cracks me up
Norman........Genious!!!
Makes me laugh every single time. Brilliant.
A comic legend , absolutely brilliant
Bless his heart … the old school era … I guess you had to be in that era to understand how great these comedians were .. no swearing, no rudeness, just honest people making people laugh for a living .. 👍
R.I.P.Norman.Loved your shows.
I worked with Norman. Funny as fuck even off stage. Great memories of the 70's
Fantastic. Great memories. Technically very proficient I’ll wager.
As his grate grandson has said in the comments he was a brilliant man. You don’t see the likes of him anymore. So glad I grew up when I did. He is Very much missed a long With so many of his generation that entertained us Growing up. 🇬🇧 26/9/20
Brilliant, watched this a few times now and it always makes me laugh.
What a class bloke he was 👍🏻🇬🇧🍺
Hull legend. Loved him on Tiswas with Frank & Bernard.
Brilliant, so good to see this again :-)
Thanks for sharing
RIP Mr Collier, you were an amazingly funny man and gave my childhood plenty of laughs :)))))
They say comedy is all about timing. No one was better than Norman Collier. If you try and copy his routine you will find how difficult it is. Brilliant. Long may he continue.
A unique talent,always top class.
What a performer, he hit that crowd bang on. And I work in showbiz, I won't say who I am but it has been nice to see you to see you.... Bollocks, I'm. Rumbled.
RIP Norman, without doubt THE funniest man I ever saw or worked with. Condolences to Lucy and family.
Norman Collier would show some of the Apollo comedians what REAL comedy is. Not many in his league these days. 😄😄😄😋
I was doing a show at a club in London in the 70's. I had my own sound system, and was doing a "Sound Check" doing what Norman did. This poor committee man, in his later years, jumped up, and pulled out ALL OF THE LEADS OF THE CLUB SOUND SYSTEM, THINKING IT WAS THE CLUBS FAULT!!! BINGO STARTED LATE THAT NIGHT!!!!!!!!!!!
The microphone act is brilliant. And its so hard to do.
I'm crying with laughter here. Haven't done that in ages.
RIP Norman, thanks for the laughs.
Norman was a man ahead of he's time. How could he have known back then what a Skype call on Virgin internet would sound like in 2017.
He was a comedy genius
Just magnificent. RIP Norm.
RIP Norman thank you for the laughs
Yes always laugh when watch he was a genius
What a brilliant chap.
Superb!!
What a talent!! ' puts today's "One trick pony" look how clever I can be, sarcasm acts to absolute total shame!
I think about the guy most days now when I’m on a company Zoom chat
This is so funny. The guy was so unique and pure genius
Very funny guy loved him years sgo and still now just as funny !
RIP Norman...one of the best.
Certainly made me laugh, RIP Norman!!
@maccafan10
I,ll bet even backstage was a hoot!
great to find this,and to learn that Norman is still with us in His Eighties,with a birthday coming up on Christmas Day!
Testing! I see what you did there. Comic genius indeed and will be sadly missed.
What a funny funny man . Absolute genius of comedy .
Norman made that broken mike gag his own... always made me chuckle
Brilliant!!!
R.I.P Norman... end of an era.........
How talented ....and funny was Norman, fab....forever........DEV
RIP Norm, a British comedy GREAT. I luv this routine
Fantastic Norman I tried the mic act years ago in our little social club in Oving Chichester I stormed the place T a k y u Norman RIP So funny and no dirty jokes Just the V Sign from his Robin Reliant Coupe Overhead Cam
Brilliant. Unique.
I'm not one of these old guys who say the old comedians from yestderyear were the best. No, because there are some great comics today. But, Norman Collier was so funny. A complete madman. Wonderful.
Brilliant man
A great comic legend.
comic genius, love him.
My dad loved him. So funny.
A legend of fun
Old school humour-----NO swearing,but still childishly funny.I rate this.
Sweet shop!!
the man was a proper funny comedian. rip norman
The microphone joke is pure magic and completely owned by him.
True hero of comedy
Norman was an original and he was very funny, he worked on routines and did'nt just stand there and tell jokes. I wish some.....of todays crop were as funny and manic as Norman.
As for the PC/Racist stuff, give me a break, he was portraying Jolsons act and not some random stereotype..
Another great comedian, he came in to my shop many years ago ( I work in boots) my work colleague Margaret chick got his autograph and he put from one chick to another.
I remember seeing him at the Alcan factory social club in Banbury when I was a kid. Hilarious.
RIP,wot a great and funny comic,these blokes are better than any pill or potion
