I had very similar thoughts. Some early B&W clips gave a better hint of this. His singing doesn't compare anywhere near, but I guess he was successful as an enduring TV compère.
ohI do so agree Lance. I saw him in his touring one man show many years ago in York, He was amazing, especially on piano. In a TV tribute this eve with Miranda Hart from 4 years ago he played "Misty" it was terrific. A great entertainer RIP Sir
