Toughest letters for a ventriloquist: B, M, P, V, W. Most fool the audience by subbing in other letters....D for B, N for M etc.. This guy not only gets the tough ones, but draws attention to them. A master.
Anyone with a "stage feel" never forgets this act. Finding out who he was and his origins. Meanwhile, still waiting....Have not found a better V performer yet?
Arthur Wilkinson Worsley (16 October 1920 - 19 July 2001) was a British ventriloquist who appeared regularly on British television from the 1950s to the 1970s. His act with dummy Charlie Brown had Charlie do all the talking, while Worsley himself remained "silent".
One of the greatest ventriloquist to have ever lived. The King of Motionless Lips!
Awesome stuff
Truly brilliant in all respects.
The best! So funny.
Exceptionally talented and entertaining ventriloquist . Thank you for allowing us to laugh Arthur . We miss you.
This guy was great.
One of my favourite ventriloquists
An all time Classic! Thank You.
I should add that a "B" sound is very hard to do without using your lips. That's why he became famous for the rapid fire "Bottle of Beer" routine.

That guy was awesome.

Genius how he spoke to get out of doing V :D
So funny, I remember Arthur very well
I love you TH-cam.
This is the most I've laughed at a ventriloquist act.

How is it when I shout you spit in my face? 😆🤣😂
Arthur actually said something! That's got to be a first, and a last.
Indeed. Not witnessed on any TV show in the UK. Saw him live twice too, and he never spoke as himself.
I love this video so much ♥️
2:12 look at me when I’m talking son
I came here from the Dick Cavett show, interviewing Anthony Hopkins. They talked about this bottle of beer act
They do, I am here from that too. Funny how you're one of the 11.4K people to also see that interview.
He's very meta about his performance. 'How is it that when I shout you spit in my face'
Right up there with Ray Alan.
♥️
He used to work with Morecambe & Wise in their early summer season shows at the seaside
Is it just me or does worsley look extremely attractive
I often wonder if he became so intimidated by the puppet, he killed it like in that film Magic👀👀🤭🤭👽☠️☠️☠️
This must have slayed on The Borscht Belt.
Why is the word ‘ventriloquist’ in quotation marks in the title of this? He is, in fact, a ventriloquist.
Dis anyone else think this was Christopher Walken ...I did, until I found this video.
1957
This show was the last of Elvis' three appearances.
tenho gostos peculiares vc nao entenderia
Arthur Worsley is fantastic! However, if a circus clown had a ventriloquist act, surely the Quickening of the Apocalypse would Befall us all. Boo!!!
during his presentation a kid make fun of him and he kidnapped the boy to make him a doll.
Very very clever but not funny sorry
