The ghost of the legendary TV host Bruce Forsyth has been haunting the London Palladium with his iconic catchphrase ‘nice to see you, to see you nice’, a paranormal expert has claimed.
It was in the 1950s when he was 30 years old that he got his big break on the ITV series Sunday Night at the London Palladium.
It was in the 70s that his catchphrases became nationally renowned, including ‘Nice to see you, to see you nice’ and ‘Didn’t they do well?’.
Paranormal expert Brocarde has claimed she knew Sir Bruce was ‘watching over’ when she heard his ‘unmistakable’ saying while interviewing magicians Penn Jillette and Piff the Magic Dragon.
She said: ‘I kept getting distracted by the words, ‘nice to see you’.
‘At first, I dismissed it. Then came the unmistakable second half, ‘to see you nice!’, followed by mischievous laughter.
‘That’s when I knew Sir Bruce was in the room. I felt like he was watching over the interview.
‘I even heard him mention a fire extinguisher, which was hilarious considering all the fire puns flying around during the chat.

‘He definitely knew I was speaking with ‘magic dragons’.’
The London Palladium meant everything to the entertainer, who got his claim to fame at the venue and sang with the likes of Sammy Davis Jr.
His ashes were even buried under the stage, where he ended his career as host of Strictly in 2014.
The venue is said to have had a ‘special place in Bruce’s heart’ and his family regarded the move as a ‘perfect tribute’.
He revealed he enjoyed his days performing at the London Palladium, despite the hefty workload.
He said: ‘We did 40 weeks a year with 40 different top of the bill acts. Where could you even find 40 different top of the bills these days…apart from me!’
Brocarde, 42, from Oxfordshire, became infamous for her ‘marriage’ to a Victorian ghost.
She insists she met soldier Edwardo after the ghoul ‘burst’ into her bedroom one night during a storm, but after their ‘wedding’ on Halloween 2022, things went downhill.
She added, ‘He grew increasingly more aggressive and nasty and began to haunt me with the sound of a screaming baby,’ she said.
Brocarde claimed she ultimately divorced him by having an exorcism.
