RIP Jethro, certainly one of the very best comedians, sadly taken from his very appreciative audience, you will be sorely missed.
Rest in Peace Jethro, You will never, ever be replaced.
I still watch him most nights. Either you tube or DVD. And glad to say, had the pleasure of meeting him on a few occasions. RIP my friend.
Such a nice bloke. I went to see him live one Friday night a few years ago; he liked to go out for a smoke during the interval with all the punters. He didn't mix with them but he was always up for a chat if you spoke first.
I went up to him and apologised for being late arriving to see the show (I wasn't). He said stuff like it's fine, no problem, glad you made it etc. I said yeah, we left on Wednesday to get here on time but the bloody train didn't stop at the station.
He roared with laughter, slapped me on the back and said "You bloody got me!"
What an absolute gent he was. I had a chat with him during the interval of one of his shows too. It was great that he would just come wandering out amongst everyone but not make a big fuss out of it.
Crying with laughter at the Norfolk Dyke skit with Jim Davidson! What a lovely, lovely fella - absolutely hilarious - so many great jokes, and now sadly gone.
Gone but very definitely not forgotten, especially by those of us lucky enough to have seen your live shows.
RIP Jethro.
Recently found Jethro on TH-cam and certainly had heaps of eye watering laughs , way down here in New Zealand . Cheers to a great English comedian , you guys sure knew how to breed them .
Me too
One of the best comedians of all time... and a gifted folk singer too.
Loved his work...
Had me laughing uncontrollably on so many occasions... God bless you Jethro.... You will be missed by many and enjoy your retirement.
RIP Jethro. You made me laugh so hard when I saw you live that I be nearly broke a load of ribs.
I've been lucky enough to have seen Jethro live twice, the tears, couldn't stop the tears of laughter.
Enjoy your retirement, and thanks Jethro.
I'm from the North East of England and really like Jethro. It just shows how good comedy travels.
I only discovered Jethro during the lockdown and I've watched all of his videos on TH-cam. What a pity I'll now never be able to see him live.
Jefro is the best comedian in the world he is the only one who makes me laugh the most !
Don’t worry.........he’ll be back !!!
R.I.P Jethro another legend gone 😢😢😢
A dwarf got out his car and stormed over to me and said "I'm not happy!!"; "well which one are you then"... I said.. so funny when he said that. 😂🤣
I grew up with jethro I can’t believe that he’s gone thank you for making my childhood a happy and funny one #ripjethro
Rip Very sad news legend one of the best will be missed but not forgotten
A brilliant comic and what an absolute joy to be able to make people laugh with such gusto - a consummate professional who will be missed by us all who enjoyed his comedy, such a talented man at many levels - and they don’t make them like that anymore unfortunately - rest in peace and I hope you find a wonderful comedy club upstairs‼️ - I’m pretty certain that if there isn’t one you’ll make one 💥👏👏
Sincerest condolences to your family who must be completely shattered that you have gone so soon after achieving a well-deserved retirement.
Lovely words. Very well said!
Cornish born & Raised. Love Jethro, Every time we talk about him at home, Dad always mentions how he went with Grandad to see him live in the Hall for Cornwall. He said if Grandad laughed any harder he was gonna need to be carried out on a stretcher🤣
That breakdown between Jethro and Jim Davidson is hilarious. I was crying watching it. First time I'd seen it. What a lovely man Jethro came across as. Great video.
I can watch that blooper time and time again and still laugh every time.
Now he's left us.... First time I've been sad about a comedian's death since Rik Mayall in 2014.
he was and still is a legend in my life so funny
I worked with jethro when he first started doing his PA at local gigs, used to turn up in his old Volvo estate which was his mobile office as well.
Had the privilege of working in his club one night as a DJ for a friends birthday party, he came back from a gig that night and just got up on stage for nearly an hour with us all ending up in stitches.
Was great to go out to his club as well as an audience member as he would just come out to bar serve you drinks and have a laught and a chat like any pub landlord would.
Great guy of the people with no airs or grace’s, will be sadly missed for the comedy circuit, but I hope he enjoys his retirement with his horses.
How fantastic to have worked with the man himself. Thanks for sharing those memories Pete. Shows what a lovely guy he really is.
What a fantastic star. My luv to his family.
RIP Jethro we will miss you but thanks to TH-cam you will carry on making up laugh .
Geoffrey Rowe.... We will all miss you Funny man RIP
RIP Jethro, one of the very best, if heaven isn’t in stitches now, they don’t deserve you being there. Sleep in peace Geoff.
Miss you Jethro. DENZIL X
Bathroom scales!!!! That's the funniest joke ever! RIP to a true comedy God.
Greetings from Penzance. This guy's brother has been known to sweep our chimney...and his brother tells a fine old story as well. My Yorkshire born wife doesn't get Jethro's humour but I'm from Pendeen.. so the guy was priceless...Geddon my'ansum ! God rest the fella !
