I often walked past his house which looked delapedated with my girlfriend who I married to go to the knotty ash pub - little did I realise hMy mum was born in knotty ash, she lived a few doors away from Ken Dodd , my folks got married in St Thomas church ( I think that’s what it was called)
is floor boards were stashed with cashlol
I often used to see Doddy on Pilhch lane in an oldish Ford Escort estate driving home in the mid 1970s era...
