I haven't spoken to my mother-in-law for 18 months. I don't like to interrupt her. - Ken Dodd

About Ken Dodd

Sir Kenneth Arthur Dodd OBE (8 November 1927 - 11 March 2018) was an English comedian and singer and actor, whose recordings have sold over 100 million copies, his buck teeth, frizzy hair, feather duster (or "tickling stick"), and his catchphrases, often playing on the 'tickled' motif, e.g. "How tickled I am!". He works mainly in the music hall tradition, although, in the past, has occasionally appeared in drama, including as Malvolio in Shakespeare's Twelfth Night on stage in Liverpool in 1971; on television in the cameo role of 'The Tollmaster' in the 1987 Doctor Who story Delta and the Bannermen; and as Yorick (in silent flashback) in Kenneth Branagh's film version of Shakespeare's Hamlet in 1996.
