The little man in the crooked cap

Laughing at the pictures

The game's question

Let the clues come slowly. No need to reach the end if the name is already there.

At the pictures in the 1950s, one little man had the whole cinema laughing. A tweed cap worn crooked with the peak turned up, a suit two sizes too small, a crumpled collar and a twisted tie. In 1953, ‘Trouble in Store’, set in a department store, was his first big film. Who was this comedian? Circle his name together.

  • Alastair Sim
  • Norman Wisdom
  • Kenneth Williams
Need a hint?

Owls are famous for it: his surname is also a word for good sense.

See the answer

Answer: Norman Wisdom – ‘Trouble in Store’, his first big film, in 1953.

Why this game : A cap worn crooked is enough to start the laughter again – and with it the cinema seats and who sat beside you.
