Norman Wisdom

English actor, comedian and singer (1915–2010)

Sir Norman Joseph Wisdom (4 February 1915 – 4 October 2010) was an English actor, comedian, musician, and singer best known for his series of comedy films produced between 1953 and 1966, in which he portrayed the endearingly inept character Norman Pitkin. He rose to fame with his first leading film role in Trouble in Store (1953), which earned him the BAFTA Award for Most Promising Newcomer to Leading Film Roles. Wisdom's appeal extended far beyond the UK, gaining popularity in areas as diverse as South America, Iran, and many nations within the former Eastern Bloc.
