Tommy Cannon and Bobby Ball here perform one of their greatest live routines, The Ballad Of Molly Malone. Confirming their status as legends of British comedy.
I saw these guys at Sheffield city hall in the early 80's. My god you knew you'd seen a comedy act when the show was over. Absolutely cracking performance. Go in peace Bobby and thank you 😘
RIP Bobby you be sadly missed :( My father use to go to his house in Oldham for Dinner when he was at School and was good friends with his sons, he was funny on stage and off stage always made use laugh.. Never been so upset me my life, we have lost a true legend..
These two are legends in the comedy industry,brilliant live on stage,and who can forget their long running itv shows,and great singing voices both,long may they both continue.
I first met cannon and ball at higfield school,South Shore blackpool. I was a child at the time love them loads. Very funny and lovely guys. Bobby lived in st Anne's nr Blackpool
Whether it says something about the standard of entertainment there used to be compared to the standard of so called entertainment today I don't know but, I was never a fan of the duo , however this routine I found to be full of energy and not too bad at all. They create a great rapport with the audience. Refreshingly, simple, clean-ish, family, old school entertainment.
I think Cannon and Ball were my favourite comedians. They worked so well together they weren't just just comedy partners, they were good friends. The comedians now are rubbish. Foul mouthed and they don't make me laugh.
I think all comedy partnerships have their problems. Cannon and Ball were a great team and worked well together. I loved their shows. Comedy has lost it's way now. All we seem to get now are boring stand up comedy and American sit com's on British television. The Saturday night comedy shows have all but disappeared.
And now to think we have flipping ant and dec not one bit funny think they are with no talent and a drink driver one of them and tv bosses pay them millions'''' .this was entertaining this was pure talent . RIP BOBBY ....
WHAT HAPPENED TO END THESE TWO, BRILL, WE SAW EM TWICE BPOOL86/87 sold Opera house out ALL SEASON ! What do they put on there now , second rate acts . Put good acts on Bpool and you will get visitors !
Right, I get this comment is 3 years old now, and you may have changed your behaviour since then. But if not, keep this in mind - if you don't like it, simply don't watch and don't comment on it. Second of all, show some respect for god's sake, man, that poor man did not deserve his fate and you shouldn't speak ill of the dead like that. If you didn't like him, that's fine and I'm not trying to change your opinion, but show some respect because this man had family, friends and fans. What you said was incredibly immature and disrespectful, you should be ashamed of yourself. I'm not trying to start anything, just stating the truth and basically saying get some human decency for Christ's sake, life is hard enough without comments like that. And Hell, I'm 14 years old and I'm more mature than that, I'd never say anything like that about anybody, especially not a dead person. Show some respect, thank you for reading. I'm not going to make any judgements, since I do not know what is going on in your life. But, no matter what has happened to you, saying things like that is completely disrespectful and shameful. Thank you for reading. Keep in mind, I don't want to start anything - just giving you the truth here.
@@1wwc45 Okay. Thanks for not starting on me atleast, I appreciate that. Best of wishes, man, sorry if I went too harsh on you with that rant of mine, just got a bit ticked off, know what I mean? Glad it didn't turn into an argument cause that happens alot on UA-cam nowadays. Take it easy, dude, best wishes to you. 👍

Bobby Ball Legend

If is not a hidden scret that at the height of thier game they didn't get along . they mended thier relationship since .
I think all comedy partnerships have their problems. Cannon and Ball were a great team and worked well together.
I loved their shows. Comedy has lost it's way now. All we seem to get now are boring stand up comedy and American sit com's on British television. The Saturday night comedy shows have all but disappeared.
+Sloopy .Dog "reality" tv shows like x factor and Britains got tallent have spoiled tv .
How very true!
RIP Bobby
Bobby Ball: *"SHE'S DEAD! SHE'S DEAD! WOW, WOW, WOW, DEAD, DEAD, DEAD!!"*
Tommy Cannon: *"BACK OFF!!!!!!"*

And now to think we have flipping ant and dec not one bit funny think they are with no talent and a drink driver one of them and tv bosses pay them millions'''' .this was entertaining this was pure talent . RIP BOBBY ....

I asked Bobby that and he said 'It's because we don't do DIY' says it all.
😊yyyyop put you
Bobby classic, but the woke brigade will be saying bobby is racist speaking about the Welsh
He reminds me of pacman
Ray Peacock was right.
f--king hell
Not funny at all. Never a fan total mess of a famous Irish ballad
lame
Stop putting yourself down
trying to be funny...awful....
great fun, like ken dodd, no bad language, Rob what you want
Bobby Ball simply was not funny.
I did laugh once, but only because he died.
You nasty piece of work!
