You find Tommy Cooper funny mate, taste is inexplicable.
Tommy C was awful
Nah. Cooper was one of those rare comedians that people laughed just looking at him. He was just funny in his bones. I watch old videos of him and they still stand the test of time I reckon

Not really. It’s smartly written in terms of its comedy devices and is universal in its appeal because it’s so simple. They also mix physical comedy and visuals in very well. Its been translated into a tonne of different language because anyone can find it funny. I’m not mad about some of it and think the gags are sometimes signposted but it’s very very good at what it is.
Millions of tans- I think they use it as an antidote to eastenders

Aren’t most of the gags lifted from other comedy/tv shows and old well known jokes and yet the cunts still lap it up.

You’d already know the punch line for most of the jokes
Most comedy has been done before. You still have to put your own slant on it and play all the gags right. That fact that this is a hit all over the world shows how good it is imo.
