Tommy Cooper

  1. Danny Green, The Lady Killers, 1955.     The comic was suggested for the dumb pug nicknamed One-Round.  But Cooper was not free to audition due to his music-hall bookings.
  2. Cardew Robinson, Carry On… Up The Khyber, 1968.    Tommy, one of the UK’s most beloved TV comics, passed The Fakir to a lesser talent.
