Sir Ken Dodd, creator of the Diddy Men and one of the most popular comedians of his time, has died aged 90. In 2010, Newsnight's Stephen Smith went to Liverpool in search of the legendary – and legendarily illusive – king of comedy and spoke to him in a rare interview.

Newsnight is the BBC's flagship news and current affairs TV programme - with analysis, debate, exclusives, and robust interviews.
