Can't say I ever took to his comedy but a lot of people speak very highly of him on a personal level. A sad day for his family , friends and fans.

Loved him ,he had a penchant for following hotel waitresses around to pinch their bum back in the day before it became reprehensible to do so . My mam served him many a cup of tae and hang sangwidges back in the 70 s . A great loss to old Skool style comedy .

This guy was really a great talent... he guaranteed to get you rolling around from his original wit.

From very humble beginning he caught all our imaginations.

I hear he even toured US with Sinatra!...

Not everyone in entertainment achieves that distinction.

Thanks BG... RIP

He never needed to curse or be vulgar unlike some of the trashy so called comedians of today.

RIP Brendan a true legend and one of the first comedian I ever had the pleasure to see live,condolences to his family friends and anybody else with his condition who saw him as a role model.

He lived life with a smile and did it with remarkable Grave.

All I can say is..."if you fall off that wall and break both your legs,dont come running to me!"

R.I.P.
