The Tommy Cooper Joke Book: Compiled By John Fisher

Product Description

You've heard of the lone ranger? I'm his brother hydrangea!

The other night I dreamt I was eating a ten-pound marshmallow. When I woke up the pillow had gone!

My wife just phoned me. She said, 'I've got water in the carburettor.' I said, ' Where's the car?' She said, ' In the river.'

I said to the doctor, ' Doctor, I'm losing all sense of direction. What should I do?' He said, ' Get lost.'

I've got a dog, you know. I have. He's a one-man dog. He only bites me.


Tommy Cooper died on stage at Her Majesty's Theatre, London, 25 years ago in April 1984 & is still revered today as probably the greatest comedian of the second half of the 20th century. More than just a comedian, Tommy Cooper was a born entertainer. Working in a golden age of British comedy, Cooper stood
- literally
- head & shoulders above the crowd, & had a magical talent for humour that defied description. With a love of laughter stemming from a magic performance gone wrong when he was in his teens, Cooper enlisted in the army in 1939 & began to perfect his comic timing on his army colleagues in the Egyptian desert. The man with the fez was born.
