He played largely comic roles, first appearing in music hall acts and then moving to both film and radio comedies. Dampier usually appeared as a dim-witted 'silly ass' type, often billed as 'The Professional Idiot'.[4][5] He was best remembered for his post-war Jewel and Warriss radio shows, where he adopted the catch-phrase "it's me-ee".[6] Dampier toured Australia with Edward Branscombe’s Dandies troupes between 1910 and 1917. He revisited the country in 1921, and starred in two Australian films before returning to England.[7] He married Australian actress Billie Carlyle (c1901-1991), who appeared as a 'straight-woman' in his act.[8] They met whilst acting in the silent film The Adventures of Algy (1925).[9] Carlyle later wrote a book, Claude Dampier, Mrs. Gibson & Me (1978).[10][11] 'Mrs. Gibson' was Dampier's gimmick (apparently developed accidentally), a fictitious member of the audience with whom he spoke throughout his act.[3] Dampier is the father of actress Dorothy Dampier.[4][12] He died in 1955 in London of pneumonia.[13] He was cremated at Golders Green Crematorium in north London on 4 January 1955. His ashes lie in section 1-L of the Garden of Remembrance.[14] Filmography
