Jerry Desmonde’s zodiac sign is Cancer. According to astrologers, the sign of Cancer belongs to the element of Water, just like Scorpio and Pisces. Guided by emotion and their heart, they could have a hard time blending into the world around them. Being ruled by the Moon, phases of the lunar cycle deepen their internal mysteries and create fleeting emotional patterns that are beyond their control. As children, they don't have enough coping and defensive mechanisms for the outer world, and have to be approached with care and understanding, for that is what they give in return.
Jerry Desmonde was born in the Year of the Monkey. Those born under the Chinese Zodiac sign of the Monkey thrive on having fun. They’re energetic, upbeat, and good at listening but lack self-control. They like being active and stimulated and enjoy pleasing self before pleasing others. They’re heart-breakers, not good at long-term relationships, morals are weak. Compatible with Rat or Dragon.
After rising to prominence as the straight man in the stage comedy acts of fellow English entertainer Sid Field, Desmonde became known for his comedic foil roles in the 1950s and '60s films of Norman Wisdom.
During his late childhood and early teenage years, he toured with his family's music hall entertainment troupe The Four Sadlers. He later acted in a late 1920s theatrical tour of This Year of Grace.
He appeared regularly on the early 1950s United Kingdom edition of the game show What's My Line?
His more than three-decade-long marriage to his fellow entertainer and frequent comedy collaborator, Peggy Duncan, resulted in children named Gerald and Jacqueline. Tragically, he committed suicide shortly after Duncan passed away in 1967.
He and American entertainer Bud Abbott both rose to fame for their straight man comedy roles.
