    You always knew when the sketch was going to end with “you are awful but I like you” and yet you always laughed. Mark of a comedy genius.

    Hi Paul, I go to that churchyard regularly and clean and tend to two graves close by to Dick Emery’s grave. I can confirm that it is the original stone which has just been cleaned. It’s amazing how they can come up using the correct materials. I cannot take credit for the clean but I did contact the family around a year ago to volunteer to clean it. It must have sparked them an idea 💡 Great work as usual Paul 👏🏻

    Thank you Paul . You mention he was a keen pilot and I read somewhere he flew his Tiger Moth to a party he had been invited to landing in a field next to the house, imagine that happening nowadays , he was Some boy alright , I grew up in the 70s and loved all his characters some of which wouldn't be allowed in today's society. A real talent .

    He was an amazing comic and wildly funny.I adored watching him.My close friend and neighbour had a friend to stay for a few days whilst they were away.I saw this young guy leave the cottage a few times.I found out later that it was Dick Emery’s son.Probably Nicholas as the age would have been about right.Just down the road from Walton-on-Thames.A lovely resting place and so peaceful and rural.It seems he worked incredibly hard all his life.I’ve such fond memories of watching him.

    I used to like the skinhead character he played along with with Roy Kinnear as his dad. Especially the sketch where he throwed a brick at a Jeweller's window and it bounced back and knocked him out! When he came round he said "I got it wrong again, dad", as he would always get things wrong.

    Dick Emery was one of the best of the best, his characters he portrayed were done to perfection, goodness knows how many takes they took.
    It’s a shame he suffered so badly from stage fright, I read in his biography that he was often physically sick at the thought of going on stage.
    Died really young, and never to be replaced.
    RIP Dick

    A great character actor that those of us of a certain age will remember very fondly! One of the kings of Saturday night TV viewing, when you switched on BBC1 for Basil Brush and stayed with the channel for Doctor Who, The Generation Game, etc, and finished with Starsky & Hutch or Kojak, then Match Of The Day and Parkinson. If you're lucky, an episode of Bilko too, then closedown!

I remember watching the Dick Emery show every week with my grandmother - happy memories. These were the days when there were funny people on television 😂. I liked his character of the vicar best and then his one of the skin head 😂. Didn’t realise he had such a complicated marital life, I lost count of all his different women !

    Back in the 70's and 80's, TV was such a totally different form. I have often thought about how TV entertainment was created, especially for the weekends. True family entertainment shows from the Generation Game, Mike Yarwood, The Two Ronnie's, It Ain't Half Hot Mum. Shows that stick with me ever since. Shows unfortunately we'll never see again. The Dick Emery Show is one of them. Very sad.
