Dick Emery
Dick Emery (February 19, 1915 - January 2, 1983) was a British comedian and actor, popular during the 1960s and 1970s.
He began his career as a sidekick to comedians such as Tony Hancock, and had a regular role in the sitcom, The Army Game. Emery's weekly BBC show, which ran on and off from 1963 to 1979, consisted of sketches which mostly involved his dressing up as various characters. The best-known was "Mandy", a voracious blonde whose catchphrase was "Ooh, you are awful ... but I like you!"
Emery also appeared in several films, such as The Fast Lady (1962), and was a voice actor on the animated Beatles movie Yellow Submarine. Template:Lived Template:Comedian-stub
