A life-sized bronze of the comedian and magician Tommy Cooper, complete with his trademark fez and a hand half-raised in mid-gag, on the edge of Castle Lane just across the moat from the castle gate. Cooper was one of the great British comics of the twentieth century — his catchphrase "just like that" entered the language — and his death live on stage in 1984 is part of British television lore.
A short stop on the way in or out of the castle. Photographs with the fez are obligatory.
