B.b.c. Judy tonight is what you look for on Facebook and also on Twitter Well Ken was released from hospital recently and he'd been treated for a chest infection and his publicist has said that he passed away at his home and not he ash in Liverpool Well our reporter Mark game is there this evening good evening Mark. Good evening to tell me what's the reaction been like to the loss of such a Liverpool legend. This reaction of sadness but obviously not shocked he was 90 and as you said been in hospital for 6 weeks at the start of the year with his chest infection and on fire with a 27 was up the little hospital which is just a 2 minute drive from his home here when he was discharged he looked extremely frail I was in a wheelchair so even though he and his. New wife very bullish about him returning to this stage you know he is 70 Johnny shows been rebooked for the spring so they know will take place but he looks so frail doubted whether we'd see him on the stage again we didn't realize that he would soon pass away so quickly so people left. With lots of happy memories missed buses and trains or mutilate finishes of his shows I suppose taxi drivers the length and breadth of the country and now we're in mourning for all those unexpected fares they received over the years in their book condolence was opened this lunchtime at Liverpool town hall where the union flag has been flying at half mast but the 1st signature was out of the Lord. Of the quad out because he actually said seconded the motion which made Ken a freeman of Liverpool in 2001 and also hosted is 90th birthday party November which I was privileged to attend and he visited Kerry in hospital back in January and among those coming in to sign the book was this woman who attended what became Ken's last ever performance it was here in Liverpool on December 28th and I asked her if she realised he was ill that night the last song Only some happiness and everybody sort of kind of there wasn't a dry humor here in the house and decide to have been disappointed to have I and everybody just shouted no and then people were shouting We love you can oh how wonderful you know really he really did touches audience His career spanned such a long time didn't it and he wasn't one for retiring Mark No no we certainly wasn't if you think his full time career began in 1954 at the theatre all in Nottingham as a professor but within 2 years to be talking the Bill of Blackpool but that created been home in the years working in the local working men's clubs while employed in his father's business and in fact his father wrote some descriptions mom even designed the costumes but all the clubs and people knew him but by 960 s. He was absolutely massive and he was a fixture the b.b.c. And he was a recording star and then his record running on the play him 42 weeks it's really hard to imagine just how big he would have been and remember you know topping the charts the 3rd best selling single 960 s. And that was sandwiched between 4 hits by a little combo you might have heard of The Beatles so although even and he might not be prime. He was. Until his death. Mentioned retirement when he came out of hospital 2 weeks ago he said I just want to get back to the only job I've ever had. You know it's a fantastic thing. You have to look at Ken told and he did know what he's going to come out with. Despite you know everything about you she. Says you know if. This. Were not. The passionate. People trying to. Block. People mission train them. Yeah those are people who are outside the house. This is a. Real place some people think it was something he made up and this is where he was born into a grandparent's house parents' house and his house is the house he was born in and so the house he was married in. The house he. You know when you hear of the. Home this is where. The phones would be coming here. It's raining now and people. Can now. This morning. His wife with him for 40 years she was a former. She came outside and she spoke to people. I've had the supreme joy and privilege of working. With him as partner for the past 40 years. The world has lost a most life enhancing brilliance creative comedian with an operatic retrained voice who just wanted to make it happen. So the lady I am daughter she now is she was for me and Jones until they married on the Friday and shortly before succumbing passed away just a couple trivia so I'll stick to the ones local ones if I may still get big in support McCartney He wrote on Instagram farewell to my fellow Liverpudlian The totty flair is Ken Dog beloved by many people in Britain and the champion of his home city and comedy we met him on a few occasions at the Beatles and always ended up in tears of laughter today it still is a sadness as well see you dog we also heard the John Bishop but he wrote on his own but you might say that the latest one kind the month a little comedians he wrote true comedy legend r.i.p. Said Can dog who grew up not too far from me he said an icon or one of the true Professor of comedy one of the greatest how tickled I am to have known him he said and I suppose are not local but we are all to mention not in death because everywhere they go on to it is so sad to hear of the passing of Ken dog a comic legend r.i.p. And I think from all the states tufty by it's been plump just he's been fantastic and I think all of us in Liverpool it's a part of our city that's gone and we will see his life again thank you so much the saving Margaery that outside dogs house in Nottingham this is coming from Steve and Mark in the van they say old Georgie shout out to all the jam butty miners evidently the phrases you know they escape me because I'm you know the mind's a little bit for hazy but Tassie Phalaris and plump Oh my word all these things Steve must say were in Shelton and finally on the way for a long work day we're both usually in the back at this time not together they say he'll spooning a bottle with a cup of tea get his home well we've got plenty of tatty for Larry's things.

Radio Sheffield on a Saturday morning this is a while ago now and I was used to end the show with sickens happiness and it just you know it just was a perfect and to the shows I did and it's just a perfect song really I think before close a play surely we've got to have only. This is Amy Winehouse You're listening to Josie tonight right across b.b.c. Local radio in England in the Channel Islands back to black. Berry multinational next. Right across b.b.c. Local radio in England in the Channel Islands and we are remembering the comedian Ken Dodd tonight who passed away at the age of 90 I'm delighted to say we can ask someone who knew him very well Jerry Mazda and from Jerry in the Pacemakers Hello Jerry Hi George you love Oh you're very well thank you now listen when did you 1st come across Ken. I think you miss of way through the war. Years later don't. You see how comedians are all the same. I can't remember their face but some but he always always was around and it was always given something in common we started the only chance of the shows and had a laugh and so on yeah what was he like to be around with he is funny you know in conversation as he was when he performed don't write No not really really no he was quite easy go in and he didn't live up to his carriage put. Imaginary business further Yeah yeah what do you reckon the secret to success is clearly looking people in the 6 and a half hours of the car. To try and get out. But I mean a man that can sustain 6 hours or 5 up as you know constant It takes some doing and it was good for sleep. When did you know Jerry I saw development 6 months ago her doing a thing in the Liverpool and in a stroll can. I load Yep I can i saw it and then he can chat and their way and. It's just a nice fellow ring you know and he didn't tell him the gags he just spoke to me and of the other little chat on stuff would be you lasting memory of him or the other thing about. Running. In a taxi the money go out in the States is driver thank you but it would sure look enough to me. Yeah I have a drink and they give him a tea bag. Oh I think that's fabulous. He never killed yet. What do you reckon his legacy is how I think just how much he would act. How many people gave a great deal of pleasure. Hello really oh my God bless and smash and 90 I mean that's a heck of an age is in the is. When you consider 6 hours every night. Brilliant and what are you doing at the moment you still performing live yes but what do you like 3 or 4 shows a week and stop them a just big big tours Yeah there really is and we go it. Specific shows but take it easy in the good stuff did you ever share a stage with Ken was there ever Yeah loads of times but we made sure we went on and didn't close the show. And it was a lie to get him to be back. Evidently. Thank you so much for sharing a few memories with us tonight the pleasure of it so it was a shock really running on the phone call you really. We did He was well you just. Don't have a die you know. He'd just been in hospital and they've been discharged you thought well that's good yeah. But there will still be Scouts is never dies what happens to them. You know what. Gerri thanks of a civil rights when it's all you take you to Jerry Jerry in the basement is not great you see out of the sadness of the loss of Ken doll there is immense humor and I think that would be the thing that would keep us all going quite honestly listening to radicals b.b.c.
