He had a weird, out of this world sense of humour which went over a lot of people's heads but there was one thing you could say about him - with his trademark Fez and his over the top arm actions his humour was as clean as a whistle.  He was a one-off.  You can't say that about modern comedians.  There's absolutely no reason to pepper the language with expletives.

One of his quips was how he rescued a man being swept away in a fast flowing current.  He said "How did you come to fall in the water?"

"I didn't!  I came to fish!"  was the sharp retort.  The old one's are the best ones.
