I know he wasn’t very PC by today’s standards but jeez he was funny. This is LOL funny:
I don’t even think that 76 is very old. Very sad : (
Freddie Starr was brilliant. Russ Abbot only had a small part in his show when Freddie was at his most popular.
I was hoping he would make a comeback after all the investigations he faced, but it totally ruined him. I've no doubt his accusers will be happy now.
I cannot comment on his social life, but as a funny man he must go down as one of the great comedians of our ( my) time.
His financial and social problems led him to die in a one bedroomed flat in Mijas, which is sad.
Bypass surgery, a heavy smoker and ballooning weight increase directed him to an early death.
At the height of his career, he was one of the funniest.
The accusations and investigations destroyed him. After destroying him, he was told he would face no charges. And he never recovered.
RIP Freddie Starr.
Really really sad. I think that after all the accusations he became a recluse who drank to numb the pain (I’m guessing). He was such a funny lovely man :(
That and more, smowball. It left him financially practically broke. Very, very sad.
So so sad Naomi. Bless him....... x
I was a huge fan of Freddie Starr back in the day and saw him live many, many times. His act was VERY rude, but he was very, very funny. RIP Freddie x
The last time I saw him live, long before the accusations against him, he was very bloated and could hardly breathe. He kept leaving the stage and I could see him in the wings with an oxygen tank. Yet still he smoked.
Around the same time he was cancelling shows at the last minute because he was too drunk to perform.
He was on a path of self destruction and I suspect his life would have finished in the same way had he not been subject to the Yewtree investigation.

I still laugh at the recordings I have of his old shows.
