This man is a geneous i have spent many an hour rolling round the floor in laughter, laugh i hurt so much BUY BUY tell all your friends.

WHY DO THE BRITISH OUTCLASS EVERYBODY IN COMEDY, CINEMA, TELEVISION AND LITERATURE?
NORMAN WISDOM is a genius. As a dyed in the wool movie buff it fell on me when I first saw FOLLOW A STAR on television. I bought everything available on VHS. In 35mm,I only saw THE GIRL ON THE BOAT. I paid 100 pounds when the 12 DVDs were released and I don't regret it. I regret that it was without commentary by NM. I think that the greatest one is THE EARLY BIRD. The PRISM edition of THE GIRL ON THE BOAT is quite good and the movie is outstanding, I was worried as a WODEHOUSE fanatic can be.
NM is still great as appearing in LAST OF THE SUMMER WINE.
I don't have to say anymore. It's self evident to British movie buffs and general public. Thank you Sir Norman!
