Norman Wisdom, a nowadays somewhat forgotten actor, was famous in the 1950s. He is a representative of British popular humour without excess or vulgarity, as “Follow a Star” shows, in which the comic of situations (the singing lesson is irresistible) alternates with touching scenes.
Norman Wisdom, méconnu en France, a eu son heure de gloire dans les années 50. C’est un représentant de l’humour populaire britannique sans excès ni vulgarité comme en témoigne “Follow a Star” dans lequel le comique (la leçon de chant est irrésistible) alterne avec des scènes touchantes.

This is one of my favourite Norman Wisdom films. He was absolutely brilliant, so funny and he seemed a lovely genuine man. I wish I could have met him. An absolute legend ?

52.35…fabulous Dick Emery!……1.02.28… " What will he do?"…"He will probe your hidden complexes"….."I'd better have a bath then." Norman Wisdom; the comedian/actor/singer who made Britain-entire laugh out loud…period.
THE LITTLE BOY ON THE PIANO AT THE BEGINNING OF THE FILM
WAS NORMANS REAL LIFE SON
Not ashamed to say I sing the soap song in the bath too
The part where he tries to sing on stage and they try to get him off has me in tears every time.
…lv music conductor n when he gets mad…-00bc-2099ad ..
The song of f soap where they instigate him to song fr soap while he is bathing is full of wit n humour
Such. A master piece indian movie albela was inspired by this story
Does somebody know the title of the Norman's movie when he is an idiot, but some scientists make him a super intelligent man ? Unfortunately, the magic will disappears after a while.
This might well be my favourite Norman Wisdom movie.Thanks x.
Hi, Do you have a complete copy of Norman Wisdom This is Your Life, please? The versions already on youtube are all incomplete and the audio is affected.
I'm not a great fan of Norman Wisdom but at least he wasn't falling about too much like he usually does. It wasn't too bad apart from the scene in the club which got stupid.
At the end I expected Judy to go on and play the piano to encourage him on as he had no confidence and there was a piano there on stage, and then she'd leave after playing a few bars of the song to get him started.
Hi ? – to All “, Norman ***?- The Best Ever *** ?- he’s always been part of my life too ! . Cheers .
So much talent, not just a great actor, a very good drummer as well. Every film is a gem, priceless, x
My favourite part of this scene begins on 1:33:29
Whoever doesn't love Norman Wisdom must have something wrong with them. Before my time, but I've just bought the Norman Wisdom collection on 12 DVDs. : ) A comic genius who can make you cry with laughter and cry from pathos too. And if you knew of his upbringing … a homeless beggar at 12, an abusive father who didn't want to know him, who rose to be the only person in the entire UK who had our Queen around his little finger. That time when he's nudging the Queen at some fete, saying ''ere try the cheese' as she's being presented with a box of the stuff hahaha!
The irreplaceable Norman Wisdom.Still making me laugh after 70 years .He was the greatest.
Excellent, old school. Sick day greatness.
Fantastic he.was a great comedian and had a lovely voice ???
Merci beaucoup d'avoir partagé ceci. Norman Wisdom est le meilleur!
