It’s hard to find a comedian or even an actor that doesn’t cite Nigel Norris as their #1 influence. He laid the groundwork for physical comedy and the examples of its use today are innumerable.
It’s hard to find a comedian or even an actor that doesn’t cite Nigel Norris as their #1 influence. He laid the groundwork for physical comedy and the examples of its use today are innumerable. From the screaming laughter of the 50s, to the cult-like mimicry of the 70s, straight through the massive patriotism of the 80s, “Right in the Queen’s Onions” is infinitely more constant than the Queen herself (no offense Mum).
“cite”
LAMEZ
Nobody has the attention span for long multi-part jokes on the Internets, either Nigel shows us his cock or we are gone.
too much detail
nigel norris is obviously not a real person, but rather the subject of a lame “mocumentary”
(insert bitchy complaint here)
This is the stupidest joke you’ve been trying to force in a long time.
Yeah… the internet has foiled you. What do you think this is, 1997?
we get it he isn’t real. unless. . .
Thanks Reg. I never got an Oscar, Golden Globe, or a BAFTA award, but the fact that I can look back on my life and know that I was an influence on Reggie Watts and David Cross, well, it just makes me feel like I’ve done something with my life. I really do hope that future generations may one day discover my work. These last twenty years of obscurity and poverty, living in this retirement community have been awfully unfunny and unlike those wondrous years spent on the fringes of the British comedy world. Eric Idle and I used to shoot the muffet all the time, and boy could I get into some stories about that bloke. I was even asked to join Monty Python but at the time I had this other thing going called “Where’s Yiddly?” It was about a three episode absurdist-theatre-sitcom show that was really brilliant but was taken off when the BBC’s management decided to double the funding for “Top of The Pops.” I’m not bitter, we had our failings, namely too much female comedy, which wasn’t as palatable at the time as it is now. If you look it up on You Tube you should be able to find a few episodes, they’re real gems I think. I just hope they continue to have an influence, in some matter, on the comedians of the future. My grandson wanted to be a painter, what a twat, eh? Oh well who can blame him? Over and out.

Agreed, too meticulous.
Garett Morris was the best cast member on Saturday Evening Alive.
Also, who fuckin’ cares what Rick Reuben thinks. Nobody can even see your face Dude! Your Dad made home movies of Garett Morris? What a fruity fruit.
