His ability to leave people literally in pain with laughter was unmatched. Unpredictable, a bit dangerous , unhinged, very, very funny, and that’s why we loved Freddy. He was far too good for the “P.C.”world of acceptable comedy, and I consider myself lucky to have enjoyed his brilliance at his peak.

No matter how many times I watch this performance, it has me in tears every time ! 🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂

The guy was an absolute genius.A supreme entertainer,and master of his profession....Sorely,sorely missed...!!

Freddie Starr is the only Comedian who has literally left me in pain through laughing so much.

I keep missing bits as I am crying with laughter! Such a terrific talent. RIP Freddie, you are still loved ❤

This was and is one of the most funniest sketches I have ever seen .I remember watching it for the first time , I was rolling around in hysterics. The man was a genius a comedy genius. Also a great Everton fan . Rest in Peace Freddie we love you .

My dear old mum was in tears of laughter at Freddie. He was one of a kind. RIP Freddie.

Absolute Genius and the routine was timed perfectly. He was THE BEST and most naturally talented comedian. Such a great loss to the world. RIP Freddie ❤

Freddie was totally fearless on stage and a brilliant comic. RIP Freddie

I had to pause it to stop my head hurting. Not laughed like this at a comedian in years and it's decades old. Speaks volumes about today's acts.

Freddie at his Best...He made people laugh for 40 years. What a legacy.

A natural talent, even the pauses had the audience laughing, there's no one will ever be as brilliant as Freddie, rest in peace mate

A time when you could laugh at things because they were funny not because they had an agenda, Freddy was awesome 😁😂

Absolute comedy legend- tears of sheer laughter and sorrow here - Thanks Freddie for simply being you mate! X.

And that ladies and gentlemen is comedy at it very best...the one and only Freddy Starr

RIP Freddie Starr! No matter what anybody says, you were a TRUE BRITISH Gem! it's a pitty the Media (like the Sun newspaper) ruined you, and classed you as something that you were not, in many occasions! Just like they done with Benny Hill! They should be ashamed of themselves! To me, and my Dad, and to millions of British people with a funny bone in them, you were a comedy genius! You will NEVER be forgotten! Thank you for your class act, talent and entertainment throughout the years! :) EDIT: I'm from Northern Ireland, but have been to Blackpool many times, where I was fortunate enough to meet Freddie, and have a drink with him on Blackpool North pier. Very sad of his death!

Very cleverly done. No obscenity, just comedy!

I grew up watching this wonderfully talented man and remember laughing so hard i would ache all over. RIP Freddie ❤️

Thanks for the laughs Fred. Saw him live a couple of times, wept with laughter all the time. Comic genius. Sleep well.

R. I. P Freddie thanks for all the laughs rest easy x

sad hes gone,,,, a genuine lunatic,,,, there is no one on earth who has done or come close to doing this tape thing,,, it is genius,,, and breathtakingly brilliant,,, but that was freddy all over,,, he could have you laughing so much you could cry , snot, wee, yourself all at the same time,,,,

RIP Freddie :( the world of comedy has lost another one..

This man was such a funny comedian ...nobody could ever take his place ..he was simply the best ...rest in peace freddie ..god bless you ... you will be sorely missed 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

I can only think of 3 people who could walk on stage and have us all in tears of laughter without even saying a single word. Freddie Star, Eric Morecambe and Tommy Cooper.

Even now.. this clip must be thirty years old.. maybe more.. it's still hysterical. Comic genius is a tag I never use.. but God, this man came close. A fellow Scouser.. and a great advert for Liverpool....It'a going to be a hell of a cabaret up there with Freddie and Doddy.

I WENT TO ONE OF HIS CONCERTS IN OXFORD WHEN I WAS A CHILD, PURE GENUIS, I CRIED SO MUCH WITH LAUGHTER... WILL BE MISSED...

JUST PURE BRILLIANCE!!!! A TRUE BRITISH ENTERTAINER!!! RIP

NO WORDS CAN SAY YOU WERE THE BEST TRUE COMEDIAN I LOVED WATCHING YOUR PERFORMANCES ABSOLUTE LEGEND GENUINE COMIC GENIUS R.I.P. FREDDIE XXX

No photoshop or autotune here kids...all live..Freddie is speeding up and slowing down himself..brilliant.

I remember gripping our footstool like a drowning man a lifebelt rolling on the floor, I was laughing so hard at his first Variety performance in the 70's. I think it was my Mum who shouted out repeatedly, " Turn him off , turn him off, I'm going to wet myself! " The whole family screaming with uncontrollable laughter at this truly hysterical and ingenious man. If there is a heaven , then its just got a whole load funnier. Thankyou Freddie.

Amazing. And he had a beautiful voice in reality. But doing this type of comedy required such talent - he really did all this himself. The speeded up and slowed down voices - and the dancing - no tapes involved. Pure talent. A comedy legend. I am deeply saddened he has left us.

This is a comedian. Pure genius, the timing is absolutely spot on the money. Your only funny today if you can string a load of swear words together. This is what I grew up with. Good times.

Saturday night, having a takeaway with my family, watching my father nearly choke on his dentures at the hilarious Freddie Star. Superb memories. RIP Freddie.

So so glad he got brought back home to ENGLAND for his funeral . God bless the undertaker for paying for it all aswell. Nice one sir. 👍👍❤

I lived by Freddie when I was a child let's just say that this funny entertaining fabulous man is missed dreadfully by my entire family...he was an icon to his artistry. Your sadly missed my friend my lovely Freddie, RIP YOU LITTLE ROGUE!!!

Mum and Dad took me to see you at The Futurist in Scarborough many, many moons ago, sure as hell made me laugh, say hello to them for me Freddie, thanks man.💔

A great comedian and impersonator, we will always remember him. Rest in Peace, Freddie, and thanks for all the laughs. Starr by name, and now a star in comedy heaven.

I keep coming back to this whenever I am down and this comedy genius brings me out of the low. What a man,what a legend,his comedy timing was 2nd to none. An absolute legend who is sadly missed. Rest in peace Freddie Starr 🙌

The world has lost a genius of comedy. Thank you for the memories Freddie RIP

God bless you Freddie, make them smile up there brother 🙏😊💓

Unbelievably talented, not only was he very funny, he really did have a great singing voice and was a superb actor.

Big part of growing up for me in the 80's. Loved him . So did my grandma. Her laugh was more of a cackle. I got a good memory watching him with her, cackling, tears in her eyes, saying stuff like " bloody 'ell, he's such a daft bugger". Thanks for uploading that. Haven't seen that clip for 15/20yrs.

Seen him live. Superb. His talent was often overlooked, masked by his anarchy when interviewed. Fond memories of taking my dad to see him live in Blackpool. Thanks for the memories Freddie. Top man. Rest in peace. 🙏

OUR FREDDIE RIP - NEVER BE ANOTHER FREDDIE STAR - LOVED THE GUY

Still pissing myself, he was a class act , RIP Freddy mate 👍👌💯🇬🇧

Freddie starr the real king of chaos at the top of his game, nobody even came close, original, jaw achingly funny and totally unpredictable, we'll never see the likes of him again. Brilliant

One of the best. Loved watching him as a kid and now. Sleep well Freddie.

I can watch the Apollo every week and hardly ever laugh pissing myself at Freddy what a legend.

R.I.P. Freddie I had to come here and watch one of the funniest clips on YT. Legend

Absolutely Brilliant I remember watching him wen i was a wee boy & laughing just as much as I'm laughing now = TIMELESS

RIP Freddie... The last of the true funny guys... Xxx

WOW!! Clever man, under appreciated comic talent.

I've seen this dozens of times and it never, ever gets old. It cracks me up every time. Genius.

RIP you legend! Thank you for all the laughs and giving us all something to smile about and forget our problems for a little while.

Funniest man alive in your day Freddie .. thankyou x

RIP Freddie you were so funny and I for one will never forget you your talent for making people laugh was priceless, you absolutely cracked me up every time I saw you, wherever you are now keep them laughing they will adore you.

Freddie Starr is a comic genius! He act is technically brilliant and he has an awesome talent! I was heartbroken by how he was treated by the British Press and authorities! Bless you Freddie!

Probably one of the cleverest ,funniest ,crying laughter moments ever

Sadly we loose yet another great comedian, you have, and always will be one hell of a legend freddy R. I. P you always brought smiles and laughter to our screen's, we will never forget you 🙏

RIP Freddie, you were a true comedian. Rest easy buddy 😥

A true comedy genius, the world needs funny people like this more now than ever before.😂

In his day Freddie Starr was untouchable, unique and brilliant, thanks for all the laughs Freddie

I was never really a fan but this like his first Royal Variety was just unbeatable and perfect.

RIP Freddy , you were 1 of a kind in comedy...

I met Freddie on a number of occasions working as a support act on the cabaret circuit, he had comic timing like no other, funny and one of the most entertaining ...he is living in Spain now and much missed and forgotten by many entertainers who rose to fame on his talent...

Freddie 🌟 was just pure genius Rip Freddie you were the best 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

Saw him live, he was hysterically funny, such simple humour but so very talented

R.I.P Freddie Starr His sketches like this were some of my favourite parts of his act. I have fond memories of crying with laughter at his act.

😁😂🤣🤣🤣 Freddie Starr is a Genius.. Absolute legend!

Rip Freddie... When comedy was funny to watch. I remember the carnage on Des O'connor show. Rest easy.

What a tortured soul, he never deserved the grief he got. RIP pal.

RIP Freddie!! Thank you for all the laughs throughout the years and you can rest peacefully now..

Went to see him in Blackpool. We use the word GENIUS to often but Freddie really is one. He was and still is Pure class.

One of the best sketches ever, the tears are tripping me here 🤣🤣🤣

Words don't do this justice! 🤣 Thanks Freddie 🤣 😊👍

RIP a great comedian, a great singer, a great entertainer. We will miss you Freddie :-(

I'd forgotten how funny this guy was - brilliant.

You have to admit, this man was one in a million, I cry with laughter every time I watch him 😂😂😂😂😂😂

So this is the guy of “Freddy Star ate my hamster” fame. First time I ever saw him on stage. What a brilliant performer.

R.I.P Freddie Starr, you Sir were a very funny man. I'd watch these clips as a kid as half the nation did and would be in hysterics. You were the perfect clown, who could also sing near to Elvis! Thanks for all the laughter. God Bless yer.

Utter genius - how his band kept a straight face I'll never know. Brilliant.

He recorded with Joe Meek at one time, and joked about with his 'broken mic' act. Drove Joe Meek mad trying to look for the 'fault'.

Rip Freddie. Genius! Stayed with my Nana and Grandad when he did a fireman's charity night back in the 60's, my Nan thought the world of him and we would always troop off to the Futurist in Scarborough to see him in later years. Happy memories, legend!

This brings back memories of when I was around 5 years old sitting watching this on TV and the tears streaming down my face with laughter.

One of the very, very funniest things I ever watched!! Had me in tears years ago, still has me in tears today!!!!

RIP Freddie, and thank you for all the laughs.

RIP Freddie Starr you was one of the best comedians around and still now i am lol. And he was a great entertainer

One of the best. Bless you Freddie. You made me laugh for so many years. Brilliant just brilliant. God bless you. 👍

I don't care what they say about political correctness, This stuff was funny and brought people together. Its only a bit of fun nothing more.

Loving the 80's mullet. I grew up watching in this Time. Saturday nights used to be funny as fk.

Saw him at Blazers, Windsor. He was brilliant. Had us all in stitches. One of the girls who worked there said that every night was different. Rene and Renata were one of the minor acts...did he give them some stick. We were still crying with laughter in the coach on the way home as we remembered parts of his act. Will be sadly missed.

RIP Freddie. Thanks for all the memories.

One of the best British comics of all time and a great singer. Truely talented.

An all time great comedian who had his career shut down by nonsense rumours he didn't have the energy to rebuild from!! What a man!

Brilliant, absolutely bonkers one of the very very best entertainers the UK has produced...legend!! RiP Freddie Starr🌟

R.I.P BEST COMEDIAN EVER WILL NOT BE FORGOTTEN FREDDIE YOU'RE OUR 🌟

Freddie... I cried with laughter watching this... you were a master...simple

Genius. Gawd bless you, Freddie, and thanks for all the mirth.

R.I.P Freddie Starr ~Comedy Genius 💫 😢
