The same cannot be said for Charlie Chaplin. A very interesting life, bit comedy wise doesn't do it for me.

I agree, Chaplin's not in the same league, funny sometimes but doesn't light my fire .
We went to the Ulverston museum about 15 years ago. The owner was genuinely thrilled to bits when I told him I was born on Babe Hardy's birthday (18 January) and got me to choose a film clip to watch in his little cinema.
I believe he (the original owner) is dead now but the museum is still carried on by a new bloke.
