Danny Ross was a British comedian most notably remembered for his role alongside Jimmy Clitheroe in the long running BBC Radio comedy show "The Clitheroe Kid" (1957–1973). Danny Ross played the part of "Alfie Hall", the dim witted, largely unintelligent and mismatched boyfriend of Jimmy's posh sister "Susan" (Diana Day). Alfie Hall was a name Danny Ross had used prior to "The Clitheroe Kid", including during a television series in 1956 entitled "I'm Not Bothered..." which followed the exploits of milkman "Alf Hall" and his stuttering mate, "Wally Binns" (Glenn Melvyn). The phrase "I'm not bothered..." was occasionally used by Danny Ross in The Clitheroe Kid as a catchphrase, in indecisive (but not unfriendly) responses when given a decision by girlfriend "Susan". Danny had made his reputation in comedy by starring alongside Arthur Askey and Glenn Melvyn in "The Love Match" - a hit stage comedy presented in Blackpool during 1953, that lead to the spin-off TV series "Love and Kisses". He had also starred in the George Formby role in the revival of the stage musical "Zip Goes a Million", and later made a pop record of Formby's hit song "The Old Bazaar in Cairo". Danny Ross was born in Oldham, Lancashire, England in 1931. He was taken ill on New Year's Day 1976, en route to London with his manager to arrange a new show. He died of a heart attack, aged just 45, at Blackpool's Victoria Hospital six weeks later. == Filmography == 1. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Danny Ross (comedian)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
