After Rolf went inside, Phil had to fall back on his other impersonations: Jimmy Savile, Stewart Hall and Dave Lee Travers.

Like the Grumbleweeds Robin Colvills impression of Jimmy Saville, Phil mightve heard stories of Rolf (it was more well hidden) but like Robin he would never have given such an affectionate impression or even done it if he knew the truth.

I saw Phil Cool live in Worthing, West Sussex in 1998. Very entertaining couple of hours.

I saw him in Brighton. This chap in the audience tried to spoil it for everybody by continually heckling; Phil's response was perfect, he said, "It's now 8:30 (or whenever) in the evening, and all the other hecklers have stopped......but the one with the DURACELL battery......" 😂😅😊

Went to see him at Barnsley many years ago. Phenomenally good.

Apparently (For what it's worth considering what a twat Harris turned out to be) having seen his impersonation of him, he declared Phil Cool to be by far the most accurate of all the ones that used to try and 'Do' him. Absolutely right!

Recommended by Jimmy Savile.

I love the story about him going down to The Falklands to do a show for the lads in the armed forces. During his performance someone in the audience let out a loud fart. Apparently Phil stopped for a moment and said "That's the first time that I've ever been heckled by a real arsehole!"

Even funnier than the man himself. He did a version "Bridge Over Trouble Water" in the style of Rolf way back in 1986.

I miss seeing Phil Cool. He was great and had a face that makes Jim Carrey's look stiff. Unfortunately when celebs started literally getting caught with their pants down a lot of the most popular impressions were put in the bin. Not just for Phil but all impressionists.

One of the times I laughed hardest was Phil doing an impression of George Formby if he was in the modern era (circa 1985). If you could see what I could see, when I'm robot dancin'! 🤣

He made enough money to retire from the stage and concentrate on his family - the people who often get forgotten by successful entertainers. A wise decision.

What happened to phil cool, his impressions were good but his patter was humming?

Turns out Rolf would have fitted in well with the Catholic Church!

Phil cool did some great impressions, the problem with his own show was it got a bit tired and worn out, the musical impressions of singers went to extreme lengths including a whole band and lasted 5 minutes or longer, it felt as though what could have been a very funny 20 minute show was stretched to 30 minutes, better placed to have had a couple of other impressionists on to do some short gags instead of a couple of overly long freddie mecury or mick jagger entire song's

Yes I agree. He was an excellent mimic but unfortunately he didn't know when to stop with some of his gags. He used to carry them on for far too long, often after he delivered the punchline.

He had a very pliable face.

I suppose it was apposite that a creepy as fuck impressionist did Rolf Harris.

Bless Rolf. Hounded for Saville's misdoings. Messed up with Saville, we'll get someone else instead.

Rolf was not a great warm character in real life [first hand knowledge], but he was set up and broken by the Met, and we all know that Police Forces are run by perverts and the woke agenda, along with the corrupt media such as the BBC. Rolf was a sacrificial giveaway to distract from the crimes of Savile, Andrew and Chawwles, more of the royals, the Met, and about 30% of Westminster; and the best part?, it's all coming out!
