Be fair Jordy, ^^^ you never saw his lips move!

Lol Jordy, Brough :)

Oh yes, jordy, - I remember Peter Brough and Archie Andrews. Is there an easier job than being a ventriloquist on the radio? When he made the transition onto TV , he made absolutely no effort to stop his lips from moving. Apart from being a professional rabbit breeder, I think a radio vent act must be just as easy peasy
