Norman Wisdom
I think the talent of Norman Wisdom has it's own unique quality.
There is only one Norman Wisdom and that is what some believe is a disadvantage because he seems to play the same character in all his films, to others this is good and of great entertainment.
Have been watching his films since I was a child up to present day, they never fail to make me laugh, no matter how many times I see them.
There seems to be a split amongst some about the talents & films of Norman Wisdom, they either hate him or love him. Personally I love him.
Our Norman is in his 90s now. I wish him continued long life and long may be reign.
