I suppose not, but, still, he was a legend in his own right. I mean, who the heck is gonna be fashionable after so many decades in show biz? Hey, anyone who gets a nice In Memoriam from McCartney is ok with me.

I also couldn't imagine him transitioning to a game show host like Brucie or Bob Monkhouse.
Les Dawson did that extremely well, mainly because of how much of a chore he made it look .

Did Ken Dodd stop appearing in anything during the 80's or something. I never saw him in anything growing up, the only reason i'm aware of is from other comedians making mean "looks like Ken Dodd" jokes, i suppose his appearance was part of his act though.
Surprised none of my fellow Brits gave a shoutout to Ken Dodd though @seeingisbelieving has paid tribute to him in a new avatar. Dodd’s humor was not entertaining to me, but, boy, he sure was around a long time. Paul McCartney, his fellow Liverpudlian, paid a nice Twitter tribute to him. R.I.P. Ken Dodd.

My target shooting gun was a 1932 High Standard Model B .22 cal pistol. It figures it would be from the 30s, ha!
