Acting

Eric Sykes

Born May 4, 1923
Oldham, Lancashire, England, UK
Died July 4, 2012, aged 89

'Eric Sykes' started as a radio scriptwriter but he soon found he could perform as well as write. The slight handicap of being very hard of hearing doesn't interfere with his wonderful comic timing. The spectacles he wears have no lenses but contain a bone conducting hearing aid.
