Thread Name: BS: Tommy Cooper lives on in bad jokes:-)
Subject: RE: BS: Tommy Cooper lives on in bad jokes:-)
Funily enough (pun intended) Splott man, Many of Vine's jokes have been falsely attributed to Tommy Cooper; the West End show about Tommy Cooper actually features some of Vine's jokes. (Source - Wikipedia) I think that it is a great tribute to both of them that their jokes can be intermingled:-)
The skip outside the house joke is one of Tim's. I was another one earlier

I went to the doctors the other day.
The doctor said "You've got hypocondria".
I said "Oh no! Not that as well"

I must say I have never seen or heard his delivery but the quality of the puns certainly make me think he is up there with the man with the fez!

Cheers
