Although he wasn’t on tv regularly, according to Jim Davidson in his eulogy speech at Jethro’s funeral (on TH-cam), Jethro’s dvds sold more than anyone else’s. Must have sold in the millions. Great comedian.
This guy tells jokes in his sleep. He's like Tommy Cooper, totally effortless. One of those names that will live forever in the comedy circuit. R.I.P Jethro
Over 30 years ago, I spent three nights in the local pub in st buryan, He was there, those three nights and had us in absolute stitches, what a fantastic comedian the roof nearly fell off the pub.
There are few people that make me actually cry with laughter. You are one of them. God bless you Geoff. I'm so glad I got to see you at the Wyvern. RIP
@@toysforthetoygod2671 your dad has good taste 😏👌 I hope they bring out his DVD collection be nice to have the old originals again I like the earlier VHS stuff it’s so funny
The greatest standup comedian the world was blessed to have, taken far too early, st peter will be kept entertained for life, Thank you JETHRO for all the laughs you gave me
Jethro was brilliant. His wry humour, effortless. Your comment however, should have said, 'in my opinion' as I have read elsewhere that others were/are tge best ever.
My favourite comic, sadly gone, never saw him use the “F” word like so many do nowadays, very suggestive but never offensive, absolutely brilliant, thanks for all the laughs Jethro, we’ll miss you.
Saw him twice and met him once after a show in Bournemouth. I'll never forget him walking out to meet his fans with his pipe in his mouth. Absolute Legend.
@@tonyryan1574 Well, sadly I only just heard about him this morning and I laughed out loud. We have Rodney Rude and Kevin Bloody Wilson here so he would have been bloody famous here in Australia.
PROPER, PROFESSIONAL, REAL & MASTER joke teller & joke writer With the JOKE MASTER now gone it has left an ENORMOUS hole in the comedy world which will be INCREDIBLY HARD to fill
Very sad loss and such a great talent a phenomenal comedian and Cornish legend, my condolences to his family at this very sad time, Rest In Peace JETHRO 🙏✝️
We saw him in Ivybridge about six years ago. It's a small venue which was completely sold out. Jethro came into the bar before the show and went round and spoke to as many people as he could, which luckily included my wife and I. It was like talking to someone you have known for years. We both came out of the show with aching sides through laughing so much. RIP Jethro.
God bless Jethro now he's finally got off the train. Not at Cambourne though, they don't stop at Camboune Wednesdays .... we shall all miss Jethro, truly funny, talented man. 😄
I went to see Jethro once. I’d never heard of the bloke and got offered the tickets as someone cancelled. Laughed non stop all evening and several of his jokes is on my all time favourite list. Honoured to have seen him before he passed.
Being a very proud Cornish-boy myself, I can't imagine what he and denzell penburthy are doing now over a pint Tereba nessa.Dew boz geno Noze daa tha whye. (Till next time. god be with you good night )
@@patkearney9320 he was a legend in Cornwall. You can't go into a cornish pub without hearing the local old cornish boys stood telling stories beginning with "What happened woz!"
I saw Geoff just before lockdown. I lived very near him and as was his wont he came down and spoke to people before the show. He told me he was retiring from touring. Such a pity he had no time to enjoy it. RIP old friend.
The greatest joke teller to ever grace comedy No new comedian will never, ever tell jokes like jethro ever again cos comedy like this (actual joke comedy) is dead & buried
"The train don't stop here on...." Somehow, that fragment of a pay-off line stays with me from a great addition to the roster of top comedy performers.
One of the best ever, I remember the joke he told about his mate getting the hoover pipe stuck up his bum, he asked the nurse how he was doing and she said oh he's picking up nicely, absolute class RIP Jethro.
One of a kind and much missed may his soul rest in peace. My nan loved him on his tv appearances but went to see him live and was a bit shocked at his stage material lol but said he was still funny when he didn’t swear or be too vulgar lol.
Aw, just class. Sorely missed. The great comics make it sound so easy and he was a great comic whom should have had more exposure on tv. His style and delivery was up there with the God's of comedy.
Have only just discovered this guy & so sad to hear hes passed away 💔 im a kiwi but lived in Cornwall for 2 years and i miss it dearly, miss my beautiful Kernow Lovvveerrrsss 🥰 so beautiful to hear this silly accent again! Fk i miss you Cornwall 💔❤️
Before I bloody start I would just like to say "we have all had the very worst news" The loss of a real comedian. His talent will be sadly missed. as I am sure hwill be the case by his family and friends
i am 63 this man will be sadly missed the same as all of the greats
I've listened to Jethro over and over again and I still cannot get enough of him.
I wished I could have seen him live on the stage
I was lucky enough to see Jethro in the 1990's in Wimbledon theatre
I loved this man’s jokes for years. He’s a total star. Best comedian ever
totally agree there best comedian ever
Absolutely brilliant. He deserved a much wider audience.
What a sad loss.
Agree 100%.
Although he wasn’t on tv regularly, according to Jim Davidson in his eulogy speech at Jethro’s funeral (on TH-cam), Jethro’s dvds sold more than anyone else’s. Must have sold in the millions. Great comedian.
He will be sadly missed one one northerner ronnie
Classic party
If China hadn't created covid, he'd most probably still be with us today
We will miss this proud Cornishman but always remember so much laughter. Rest well.
First ever live comedian I watched. No regrets. Absolute legend.
Rest well, Jethro. Your deliverance was always epic.
What a sad loss - RIP Jerrold and thanks for the laughs
This guy tells jokes in his sleep. He's like Tommy Cooper, totally effortless. One of those names that will live forever in the comedy circuit. R.I.P Jethro
Yeah the cornish tommy cooper. Both comedy legends. R i p jethro.
Tommy Cooper was funny ?
@@23715 Yeah he has in my opinion and many others.
@@colingeddes2172 😅😅
Tommy Cooper & Jethro Very Very Funny!!😂
I knew this guy in the 1970's, very funny then, very funny now, a true superstar.
RIP Jethro, thank you for everything
Over 30 years ago, I spent three nights in the local pub in st buryan, He was there, those three nights and had us in absolute stitches, what a fantastic comedian the roof nearly fell off the pub.
Proper comedian, Rest in Peace
A truly remarkable man. Who has given us all so much joy. You will be so very much missed but you will never be forgotten. Thank you.
There are few people that make me actually cry with laughter. You are one of them. God bless you Geoff. I'm so glad I got to see you at the Wyvern. RIP
THE BEST COMEDIAN EVER IN MY OPINION. GOD BLESS YOU. RIP GEOFF.
Tragic loss of such a genuine and funny person forever a legend RIP Jethro you will be sadly missed
I love this man’s voice. Saw him live twice….wonderful. RIP Jethro.
I was lucky enough to grow up with Jethro,every Christmas my dad would have his dvd.. RIP Jethro proper legend 🤜🏻🤛🏻
My Dad was exactly the same. Every year
@@toysforthetoygod2671 your dad has good taste 😏👌 I hope they bring out his DVD collection be nice to have the old originals again I like the earlier VHS stuff it’s so funny
Same here!
He was never what is deemed as an offensive comedian.
@@mercedesblack7828 I know a good old fashioned British comic like the two Ronnie’s they’ll never be replaced just cherished in our hearts ♥️ 🙏
Same here, every year I got the Jethro dvd for father, tears of laughter on Xmas day.
The greatest standup comedian the world was blessed to have, taken far too early, st peter will be kept entertained for life,
Thank you JETHRO for all the laughs you gave me
Yes with Jethro & Tommy Cooper there will be a lot of laughter in heaven
Absolutely Hilarious…👏👏😂🤣👌If there is another place after we all depart I just hope Jethro is there to entertain us all once again😏🥃x
Jethro was brilliant. His wry humour, effortless. Your comment however, should have said, 'in my opinion' as I have read elsewhere that others were/are tge best ever.
Yep... St Pete will ask him why he is there and Jethro will say... "Well, what happened was........"
Heard jim davidson talking about his best mate jethro,this man was so good,and jim davidsons tribute at the funeral was so touching.
He was one of the best along with Dave Allen and Billy Connolly all 3 very funny stand up comics
A real entertainer. Sad to see him pass in this way. R.I.P.
I loved him, back in the day. He was great. Lovely to see him again here. Thanks for uploading.
Jethro always without fail will have me in stitches laughing. RIP Jethro
An absolute legend. Rip
😢
My favourite comic, sadly gone, never saw him use the “F” word like so many do nowadays, very suggestive but never offensive, absolutely brilliant, thanks for all the laughs Jethro, we’ll miss you.
Fella cursed like a sailor anyway
you need to get out more and watch proper stand ups like peter now he is funny the best stand up are from the north/northwest and scotland
That was bloody funny!! I do like the pace & tone of it all. One of the best.
I've heard almost all of Geoffs jokes, but they still make me laugh. He had a unique talent. RIP.
So so sad your gone Jethro RIP, u have giving me so many proper belly laughs over the years and u will be sadly missed
Saw him live twice; a genuinely funny stand-up comedian with definitely none of the PC nonsense! I had no idea he'd passed away.
What an absolute LEGEND. He is soo matter of fact with his delivery and punch lines. R.I.P Jethro you was BRILLIANT mate.
A proper gentleman, a proper comedian....and a proper job my hansom....goodnight and God bless....signing off....Jethro ❤ 🙏
A comedy legend and true gentleman! We won't see the likes of him again!!🤗

Saw him twice and met him once after a show in Bournemouth. I'll never forget him walking out to meet his fans with his pipe in his mouth.
Absolute Legend.
How am I just hearing about this guy now? He’s brilliant. 👍
Not allowed on mainstream TV mate
@@tonyryan1574 That’s a shame. This bloke seems too good not to be more well known.
@@Bazrad68 surely in the name of political correctness you don't want an actual funny man on the BBC 🤔
@@tonyryan1574 Well, sadly I only just heard about him this morning and I laughed out loud. We have Rodney Rude and Kevin Bloody Wilson here so he would have been bloody famous here in Australia.
My sentiments exactly.
PROPER, PROFESSIONAL, REAL & MASTER joke teller & joke writer
With the JOKE MASTER now gone it has left an ENORMOUS hole in the comedy world which will be INCREDIBLY HARD to fill
RIP Jethro. You are sadly missed.
Fellow Cornish man. R.i.p. Jethro.
Legend.
The genius of comedy. Will be a huge loss in my life RIP Geoff
I first saw Jethro over 40years ago at a gig in Penzance, always been a fan of this funny man
Outstanding comedian never got the national recognition he truly deserved
Very sad loss and such a great talent a phenomenal comedian and Cornish legend, my condolences to his family at this very sad time, Rest In Peace JETHRO 🙏✝️
Thank you for this lovely tribute! He will be dearly missed down here in Cornwall, a true Cornish superstar!
His delivery is amazing. Even when it's jokes I've heard before he makes them even better.

I laughed with him for years..will be sadly missed..
Its 2023 and ive only just found you on youtube,god i was crying with laughter,so sorry to hear you passed away but i can still say goodbye friend
No doubt about it, Jethro was one of a kind. Such a tragic loss.
Watch Jethro twice at his club in Lewdown, absolute legend and a very funny man, so sadly missed.
One of the UK's best comedians ever. R. I. P
I was supposed to see Jehtro as a treat for my birthday but sadly covid robbed me of seeing the gentleman of comedy, RIP my friend
Omg his bit with the guitar😂😂😂 im dying 😂😂😂 fkn brilliance!!!

I was at Jethro's funeral today. Jim Davidson spoke and it was hilarious.
Never even heard of Jethro till today my loss. He comes across as a fine man.
@@patkearney9320 he was a legend in Cornwall. You can't go into a cornish pub without hearing the local old cornish boys stood telling stories beginning with "What happened woz!"
A happy event is definitely what he would have wished for.
Rest in peace Jethro from one of your loyal fans here in Australia, Absolute legend.
Brilliant comic, RIP and thank you Jethro
Discovered Jethro only a couple of years ago very funny man RIP mate
I saw Geoff just before lockdown. I lived very near him and as was his wont he came down and spoke to people before the show. He told me he was retiring from touring. Such a pity he had no time to enjoy it. RIP old friend.
As someone that new him through friends and enjoyed his company I will never forget the joy he has given us /Cornish men do it directly 😂😂😂
A different class of comedy that will probably never be seen again. At least we were able to enjoy it.
The greatest joke teller to ever grace comedy
No new comedian will never, ever tell jokes like jethro ever again cos comedy like this (actual joke comedy) is dead & buried
Lord have mercy.Thanks for the laughs.
"The train don't stop here on...." Somehow, that fragment of a pay-off line stays with me from a great addition to the roster of top comedy performers.
This train don't stop Camborne Wednesdays.....
@@paulscudds5651 Many thanks. I remember how i laughed when hearing the original back in the
day.
One of the best ever, I remember the joke he told about his mate getting the hoover pipe stuck up his bum, he asked the nurse how he was doing and she said oh he's picking up nicely, absolute class RIP Jethro.
One of a kind and much missed may his soul rest in peace. My nan loved him on his tv appearances but went to see him live and was a bit shocked at his stage material lol but said he was still funny when he didn’t swear or be too vulgar lol.
Laughing and crying, what a great comic genius. 👏
