Sad news today of the death of Danny La Rue. He called himself "The comic in a frock" and was one of our best loved female impersonators.
Sleep peacefully Mr La Rue.

I absolutely loved Danny La Rue as a child.

If there was anything on the TV with him I would move heaven and earth to watch him.

His clothes and mannerisms were pure class.

I remember my parents going to see him in London in 1974, my mother loved him.

He will be missed by people of a certain age. I am not sure modern TV can compare with what was on then. Suffice to say I seldom watch TV any more.

Danny was my inspirartion , I so admired his tucking that I have tried to emulate it, without success.

I remember Danny Le Rue been a favourite with my gran and other adult relations when I was a child. But I am certain that they would all dissaprove of my crossdressing if they were ever to find out. It's one of those ironic things you have to put up with.
