Freddie "Parrot Face" Davies
"Brixton London born on the 21 July 1937, but long time Salford resident, Freddy Davies was a well known comedian in the 1960s and 1970s, both in live variety shows and television. A former Butlin's redcoat whose family were already veteran entertainers, Freddy was notable for blowing raspberries and his comic voice with its distinctive lisp and his trilby pulled hard down over his ears.
Later he went on to a successful career as a comedian along with fellow comedian and personal friend Jim Bowen on ocean cruise liners.
More recently he has made several notable television guest appearances in more serious roles, including BBC1's "Casualty" and in the 1995 mini TV Series "Band of Gold"."
Getting in to the spirit of Christmas with this obscurity from 1968 on the Major Minor label. It can only get better from now on. 49p! - well it was for charity!
