I have decided to dedicate another post entirely to humorous quotes, videos, and jokes by the brilliant comedian Tommy Cooper. Enjoy!

TOMMY COOPER-

(19 March 1921 – 15 April 1984) was an Anglo-Welsh prop comedian and magician. He was known for making an art of getting magic tricks wrong, although he was actually an accomplished magician. He has been the subject of efforts by people in Caerphilly to publicize the town as his birthplace.

Despite his purported inability to perform conjuring tricks, Cooper was a member of The Magic Circle. Famed for his red fez, his appearance was large and lumbering at 6ft 3in (1.91m) and more than 15 stone in weight. He had a range of facial expressions and would also say things like, “I must say you’ve been a wonderful audience” or “Have we got time for more?” immediately after he walked on stage that would convulse audiences with laughter. He had a host of catchphrases such as “Spoon, jar, jar, spoon!!” and “Whisky, sample, sample, whisky, sample…” His most quoted catchphrase “Just like that” has never been on film. He once stood for minutes behind the curtain at the start of a televised show, and the audience, knowing he was there, was laughing hard before he even appeared. “People were laughing, just standing in line, for the tickets to see him” has often been quoted.
