My God, there has been some awful stuff said about this poor guy. He gave me my first break in television. He took a chance on me as a totally unknown writer and my career took off from there. I found him to be a genuine bloke and a true gentleman.

Did he have a moustache and glasses Little Malc?

Bobby Knutt (Robert Wass) liked on Lindsay Drive and he worked for Wigfalls repairing TV's when he first left School. I lived on Lindsay Rd and knew him well.

Oh Yes, Bobby Knutt - his slogan was 'Sheffield's Own Comedian' - in his opinion and nobody else's. About as funny as an orphanage on fire on Christmas Eve.

Robert Wass (Bobby Knutt) went to Abbeydale Boys Grammar School on Springfield Rd.

He lived then at the bottom of Cemetery Rd near to London Rd.. This was late 50s early 60s.

He was a year older than me and a bit "cocky" at school.

He was also a bit on the small side then but "bulked " up with weight training as he got older.

 

Last saw him at Bridlington about 12 years ago but his act didn't travel well and he was getting a bit maudlin.

I remember Bobby Knutt and Paul Shane as top acts who filled the clubs by 1830 on a Saturday night, so they must have had something. I myself thought they were brilliant. I'll never forget fist seeing Shaney at the Dail House, doing his inpression of Charles Laughton-as Quasimodo, singing My Way. Sheer brilliance!!

Went to Sharm el Sheik last year, saw Bobby Knutt in the airport and shouted "ey up Knutty".
