Randolph Sutton

John Randolph Sutton (24 July 1888 – 28 February 1969) was an English singer and comic entertainer in music hall and variety shows.

He made his first stage appearance in a concert at Burnham-on-Sea in 1905,[1] and was so well received that he left his job with a printing company to start a performing career.

[3] He rapidly became popular as a singer and entertainer, touring around the country, and always performed in top hat and tails, with a combination of "charm and cheekiness".

He appeared regularly in BBC radio broadcasts from 1932, billed as "Britain's Premier Light Comedian".

[10] He made his final stage appearance at the City Hall Theatre in St Albans, Hertfordshire on 26 February 1969 and died two days later.
