  • Saw this back in the very early 70’s in Australia. So glad that it hasn’t been lost.👍
  • Was allowed to stay up till 11pm on a school night to watch these brilliant men. Am so happy I was.
  • Good Lord, those guys were funny.......good ole fashion British humour. I wish I could turn the clocks back and bring them back. Thank you Peter thank you Dudley for all the laughs.

    Simply brilliant! Proves you can be politically incorrect and irreverent without being offensive!
  • @doggedout
    To think, this pre dates Life of Brian by 9 years. And does all the things they accused LOB of doing x10. ....and what they did with Bedazzled was just brilliant. What a couple of underrated geniuses.
  • @mrmink
    So much is improvised (obviously), and amazing they can do it and keep a straight face.
  • @janetgray8638
    Why don’t we have comedy shows like this any more? I loved these two. Never to be forgotten.

    I always love this sort of analytical humour: choose a topic and then dissect it to look for the potential humour in each aspect of it. :-) I'm a Pete n Dud fan, but I'd never seen this sketch before.

    I grew up in the 60's and knowing the culture back then I can imagine the switchboard at the beeb lit up like a Christmas tree the next day.
  • Pete and Dud will forever be within my heart. No matter if it was the Church, the State or the Judiciary, they knew their craft. Thank providence that they young folk can see them in the 21st century, and beyond.

    This is absolutely bloody amazing.What’s happened to British humour since the greats, Dave Allen , Monty Python, Peter Sellers side splitting humour . Thanks for this it made my day
  • @someguy2135
    This is classic! Wall to wall wit. Right up there with the best of its kind.
  • Brilliant! Bravo! 🤣 Thank you Peter Cook and Dudley Moore.👏
  • Complete bliss! I'd never seen this before so it was a joy to watch. They were unique and so wonderfully funny. Their use of language was sublime...sadly becoming a lost art. Surely the inspiration for the Life of Brian. Perfection.
  • @toddcott9510
    Both brilliant on their own, but together, hilarious. Gone never forgotten.
