A magnificent comedian. Amazing timing and an ability to paint the scene in your mind that made the punchlines even funnier, building laughter on top of laughter. I will miss you Jethro. Thank you for bringing so much joy and laughter into my life. R.I.P
As an exiled Devonian living in Nottingham I loved watching Jethro live and also his many his DVD's and jis TV appearances. His accent reminded me so much of my late Dad. RIP Jethro, you were a true comedian who will never be forgotten !!!
We need as much good news as possible in these times. . And what we've heard today is the worst news. Such a funny man. I never knew him but I've shed a few tears. There will be laughter in heaven tonight. X
What can you say? Geoff Rowe was a true gentleman, supremely gifted and a good friend to many people. He was loved by many, many more and will be sadly missed for years to come. There's so few really funny men left now. RIP Jethro!
Rest in peace Jethro, you brought so much laughter and it was a pleasure meeting you regularly over the years in the nightclubs of Weymouth after your shows.
My goodness, how I hate funerals. In the last 10 years I have lost my wife both parents & 6 good pals. However I watched this because of the great man. There will be another Jethro, R I P.
It's not just the stories. It's the delivery. What a wonderful gift of making people laugh this man had. I listen to this clip often, and even though I know what's coming I still laugh out loud. RIP Jethro.
i was with a comedy band who regularly played his club and did shows with him for years and he was nothing but nice and genuinely funny….the funny stories i could tell…r.i.p. old mate…love Watney…
Will he ever do the re-scheduled cancelled live shows? The website has just showed; "big news coming soon" for some time now.. Is he still in Lewdown?? Greetings from St Ives.
@@HarryMcKlein Hi..jethro's club at lewdown is sadly no more, he still lives in the area, I believe he's been unwell recently, still trying to catch up with Him!!.
Dear Jethro you are sadly missed by us all you were a true ambassador of Cornwall and the westcountry you were simply the best of the best the modern crap have got alot to live up to God bless you my old friend and I will never forget you 😢😢😅
If ever a national treasure born,it must be this gentleman jethro. What a loss for his family,and all his friend's and fan's. We all will miss him.r.I.p
could watch him all night......so funny comic timing very few have he had it in bucket loads.....the stall the repeat.....never ever forget this man....i watched him on des show......old des gave so many breaks to the wonderful comics we know ....love and lost
A very funny and cheerful joiner called Geoff Rowe did some work in my cottage in Nancledra , between St.Ives and Penzance, in 1973. I wonder what became of him. PS. I told him he should be on the stage. He said “I can’t , it left an hour ago”
met him at a small works do 30 odd years ago - sharp as a razor, funny as they come, and a truly nice bloke, all he wanted was to Make people laugh, he will be sorely missed - rest up Jethro safe in the knowledge we are still laughing now
What a wonderful funny man, genuinely funny. Good, clean, hilarious humour. In my humble opinion, we have only been blessed with two really great stand up comedians who can really lift your spirits and make you laugh until your sides ache. Jethro was one and Peter Kay the other. RIP Jethro and thank for those wonderful memories.
No wonder Des had Jethro on his show many times he was such a funny man can you imagine Des and Jethro on stage to together again in God's variety show it will be brilliant RIP Jethro and Des❤️❤️❤️😂😂😂
Such a lovely fella, spent many an hour watching and chattin' with him. I actually made him laugh when he was doing one of his many appearances in The Royal Cornwall theatre in Truro, often spoke about it when we subsequently met!
A great man so funny made people 😂 with his great sense humour he be missed sorely gone too. Soon never forgotten like Des O’Connor my belly is hurting so much with laughter his jokes a brilliant Cornish comedienne all time a legend 😂😂😊🙏🙏😭😭R.i.P Jertho god gained another angle
With what is going on in this country God we need people like dear old Jethro their is À big hole in Cornwall left by this fantastic warm man plenty of modern people make you cry very few make ýou laugh
The most highly under-rated comedien of all time but also one of the funniest too, if you can`t chuckle along with Jethro then sadly, there`s no hope for you at all. 🤣😂
Des O Connor was absolutely horrific at being a comedian, singer, presenter but the one thing he did get right was having Jethro on his show and just letting him do what he does best - make people laugh. What a loss to the comedy world. Such an amazing entertainer.
met Jethros agent once who told me how the Des O ' Connor show first came about. An American comedian pulled out of one of Des's show the day before it was due to be recorded. The agent knew Des personally and had been asking him to find a sport for Jethro - who at the time was not known outside of Cornwall - and so Des rang him and said that if Jethro could get to the recording immediately then he could take the spot. The rest is history
The gift of being able to make people laugh is a wonderful one and you certainly had that gift RIP Jethro.
Dont make them like this man anymore sadly mate. Brilliant story telker your hooked after 1 sentence
Here here!
@@theladdieallan there's at least one boy like Jethro in every pub in the country. Settle doon
@@meatballYF is there..... wow thats mega mate...
@@theladdieallan big time mate
One of the true greats. A masterclass in timing. May you rest in peace, Jethro.
RIP Jethro, thankyou for the laughter you gave us all.
A magnificent comedian. Amazing timing and an ability to paint the scene in your mind that made the punchlines even funnier, building laughter on top of laughter. I will miss you Jethro. Thank you for bringing so much joy and laughter into my life. R.I.P
Fantastic man, lovely human, funny man that brought a lot of happiness to many many people.

"Train don't starp 'eaven's Gate".
Jethro, you are sadly missed. That type of humour is wonderful.

Still in shock at his parting, comedy genius. RIP Jethro.
Thank you

Absolute Genius so sad he’s gone but his comedy will life forever.
My goodness, how I hate funerals. In the last 10 years I have lost my wife both parents & 6 good pals.
However I watched this because of the great man. There will be another Jethro, R I P.
I never knew of this wonderful comedian. Now, after he's passed away, I'm enjoying his work.
He was bloody good.
I'd never heard of him either.
@@TheSimonvalente where have you been, the last few yrs
Same here, I only discovered him about a year ago
It's not just the stories. It's the delivery. What a wonderful gift of making people laugh this man had. I listen to this clip often, and even though I know what's coming I still laugh out loud. RIP Jethro.
All about the delivery just superb
"Live everyday as if it's your last, and one day, you will be right".
- Jethro
What a wonderful story teller ,I'm laughing out loud at his simple but so effective style
Jethro could have you in stitches without using bad language, something modern COMEDIANS could learn from
i was with a comedy band who regularly played his club and did shows with him for years and he was nothing but nice and genuinely funny….the funny stories i could tell…r.i.p. old mate…love Watney…
What a guy, could listen to him all night ......unlike today's so called comedians. R.I.P. Jethro, you will be very sorely missed.
Every day is a bonus lad live it like its your last
An absolute hilarious , funny and true gentleman. Seen you loads in Swindon and Bournemouth. So sad of your passing. R.I.P JETHRO

I think he told the one about the train don't stop Camborne on Wednesday, classic!
Absolute diamond
Simply the best
Jethro brilliant comedian
Saw him in the 90's, best £10 J've ever spent, he was brilliant.
This must be the sum total of the clean enough stuff from the late legend's repertoire!
Jethro was a fabulous comedian 😊
He was absolutely unequie,an outstanding comedian. Sadly missed.
My wife has stood by me for 25 years
We’ve only got the one chair
He is and will be always the best
Gorgeous man

You are number one and you will be 4 ever
Comedy genius 👍🏻 saw him live twice 💙RIP💙
You’ll never see talent like this again great humour
He is such a funny man very much in the Ken Dodd mould no swearing just makes you Laugh not like some comedians today
He's funny all right but he toned it down for TV, his live shows were a lot more colourful.
I'm 22, seems des was amazing
