He was a good singer I have an LP of his. Sometimes funny, sometimes not, but certainly talented. RIP .

i had on my hard drive a long sketch of him performing a mix and comedy to an audience of his show business peers. He was hilarious.

It's sad that he had such a lonesome end to his life. I hope he rests in peace now. He was funny.

For me Freddie Starr was the all time variety star, he had a fantastic singing voice but he could be funny and sometimes just silly. The first time I saw his act on TV I was a young child in the early 70's I remembered I laughed so hard, it was Tom Jones , Gene Pitney and Mick Jagger . He was also a great mimic. Sadly his act never really changed much 20 yrs later, he lived for laughs.

He looked a sad fiigure after his court case, like many I wonder why he lived such a lonesome life in the end he had 6 children?

Thanks for laugh Freddie and may you rest in peace.

Whilst I liked Freddie Starr he was, unfortunately, embroiled in Operation Yewtree.

He was arrested three times but never charged.

RIP

We all look the same in the grave. Power or wealth means nothing to the ravenous worms.

A sad ending for this fellow - according to rumours. :-(
