Norman Wisdom is best known for a series of comedy films produced between 1953 and 1966, where he played a hapless character by the name of Norman Pitkin. However, he enjoyed a wonderfully diverse life. He enjoyed a career on Broadway, was given the freedom of the City of London, and was described by Charlie Chaplin as his "favourite clown".
