spooky

[fremsley]

Does anyone remember a comedian from the 70s/80s who appeared in a hooped prison suit and said 'Spooky' and 'You'll all be doing it tomorrow'.Trying to remember him has been driving me nuts for quite a few years now,please HELP!.

You're not thinking of Charlie Drake are you? I seem to remember him in convict stripes.

Roy "Sliver"Jay I think his name was and i think he was convicted of something and that is why he disapeared from the scene...........

[fremsley]

Thats the one Peanut42.Thanks,what did he do to get convicted?

[peanut42]

I don't know i just recall hearing something along those lines or i might have imagined it.........

I vaguely remember Roy Jay. His early 80s stand-up act was randomly punctuated with the words "spook!" and "slither!". He was apparently last seen performing in a bar in Benidorm in 2004.

Obviously we weren't "... all doing it tomorrow ..." were we?

I do remember that Roy Jay exposed himself on stage at a show and then stormed off stage in Jersey in the 80's because nobody laughed at his 'jokes'. He denied being drunk by all accounts but i think the business took a dim view of these antics and, whether as a result of this or not, seemed to disapear from our tv screens. Not a great loss from what i remember of him!

I was his Roadie in the early eighties. The reason I was employed by his agent was to get him to his venue and keep him off the drink. Sober, he was the funniest man I have ever known. Drunk, he was a real pain in the a*se.

I heard that he was last seen in Benedorm. I would like to know where he is now.
