Short and bespectacled, "big-hearted" Arthur Askey was one of the most important (and most beloved) English comedians of the 20th century. His tv series "Before Your Very Eyes" took its title from one of his catchphrases. The programme featured comic monologues and simple skits, of the sort which had been popular in English music hall between the wars. Askey was ably assisted by Dickie Henderson, soon to become a major comedian in his own right.
