Why is Clive the No 1 tribute to the late, great Tommy Cooper?

When the Tommy Cooper Society held a special birthday party for Tommy with his family including his daughter Vicky, Clive was the first to be contacted to do the tribute show for them all.

Clive was the only magician allowed to perform magic for their patron, Sir Anthony Hopkins, at the unveiling of the 9 foot bronze statue of Tommy by the TC Society in Caerphilly.

Tom’s wife Dove gave Clive Tommy's last fez for good luck and gave him many other original props to use in his tribute shows to Tommy.

Clive was flown to Ireland to perform his Tommy Cooper tribute show and close up magic for Her Majesty the Queen’s special birthday celebrations.

When English Heritage unveiled the blue plaque on Tom’s house in Chiswick, Clive was called to celebrate the occasion in true TC style along with Greg Dyke who conducted the ceremony.

Clive, just like Tom, is a member of the world famous London Magic Circle.

Mary Kay, Tom’s personal assistant for many years, told Clive that when she watched his tribute show it was "just like watching Tommy”.
