What an absolutely, amazing impressionist and musician Philip “Cool” Martin is. It’s a shame that he retired, but I couldn’t fault him. No profanities were ever needed to make us laugh. Just pure, natural talent that cannot be seen today.
@@timetraveller9321 Thanks for your comments. He was my favourite entertainer of the time too. I recorded this at the time it was originally broadcast and knew it would go down well on TH-cam!
I've always liked Phil cool great comedian man never knew he could play guitar he's excellent on guitar great finger picking. I really enjoyed it. 🏴👌🎸💯♥️
Ahh man.. The Effluent Man 🤣🤣. What an incredible facial transformation. I would have dated this clip from the 80’s until Phil mimicked Silence of the Lambs. Just brilliant! And getting in a Des joke too! 😂
I played in a band that backed Mr Cool at Trentham Gardens near Stoke on Trent before he was famous. He was brillaint - Jacques Coustous was particularly good..
He had a strange career as I remember. Was huge for few years in the late 80s doing a straight stand up/impression show BBC2. Then went to ITV and did a bigger budget sketch type show which just didn’t work…….never heard from him again!

He was astonishing good! Amazingly talented and very funny! And, as others have said, grossly underrated.
Britain's most under-rated impressionist.

What Pope was that supposed to be?

@oldskoolfool141 Really? Thanks for the info. Absolutely dreadful impression.
It doesn’t really matter.. it’s the segue into the geordie accent that makes it harder to pull off. That’s the point.
@JohnArchbell 🤔. I don't agree. It was just a very poor impression.
@@mrsmum3-6 I don’t honestly give a shit. 👋
