Line 13:
* [[Rapid-Fire Comedy]]: He used to hold the Guinness World Record for Most Jokes Told In An Hour.
* [[Self-Deprecation]]: Some jokes:
{{quote| I went into a mirror shop and I said to the bloke behind the counter "I want to buy a mirror you tall blonde idiot". He said "I'm over here sir".}}
* [[Sliding Scale of Silliness Versus Seriousness]]: Probably the silliest it's possible for ''anything'' to ever get.
* [[Small Reference Pools]]: A victim of this: many of his jokes have been wrongly attributed to Tommy Cooper.
* [[So Unfunny It's Funny]]: The "funny" anecdotes in "[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xQOOHsIO2Mc&feature=related Family Holidays]".
* [[Surreal Humour]]: The set-ups of some of his puns are strange enough to turn the jokes into this. For example:
{{quote| I was in a restaurant and a duck came up to me and said "your eyes sparkle like the morning dew". I said "waiter, I asked for ''aromatic'' duck".}}
 
{{reflist}}
