During Sir Norman Wisdom's funeral service at a packed St George’s Church, his son paid a moving tribute to him.
Nicholas Wisdom described his father’s devotion to his work over the decades and the delight he took in making people laugh by causing chaos.
He told the congregation the enormous crowds of well wishers came as no surprise, and that Sir Norman referred to himself as 'a lucky little devil' because of the success he had enjoyed through the years:
'There's a site sat there doing nothing': Former minister and committee chair at odds over Summerland
Application refusal 'was based on five clear and substantive planning reasons'
Manxman crossings rescheduled due to insufficient water depths
Steam Packet cites 'ongoing dredging issues' for changes
'Prayers answered' as Douglas RNLI eyes new base and new lifeboat
Crew helping to develop craft described as 'the future of lifeboating'
Government forecast to underspend despite mounting health and pension pressures
Tax receipts offset rising costs in Manx Care, pensions and benefits
