    Review Rutland Weekend Television

    Eric Idle's Monty Python spin off show. The usual pythonesque humour, but with musical items and songs created by Idle and Neil Innes. Their Beatles tribute/ p**s take band The Rutles had great success with hits, tours etc. In this clip.we have Henry Woolf aka The Collector from.Dr who The...

    Review Was (Not Was)

    Never realized that this track was a single, it's totally bizarre lyrically, a song clearly about being stoned out of your head,. A psychedelic video as well.

    Review The League of Gentlemen Are Back!

    Fifteen years after series 3 , a fourth series of three episodes is currently being aired. A great show, dark ,weird showcasing the amazing talents of Reece Shearsmith, Steve Pemberton and Mark Gatiss.

    Review David Jason as Edgar Briggs

    A wacky comedy with the young David Jason as superspy Edgar Briggs in ' The Top Secret Life Of Edgar Briggs' . Very OTT. Difficult to categorise this, almost slapstick.

    Review Hale and Pace

    Loved these two in the 80's, thought of as controversial at the time. They're shows did cause a stir, but by the end of their tv series run, comedy had maybe moved on. They drifted out of public notice , shame. Appeared of course in the final Classic Who story Survival.

    Review Budgie (1971)

    70's popular drama/crime series with Adam Faith. How do we view him? Near legendary status perhaps, here teaming up with the wonderful Iain Cuthbertson in a great series. They just don't make them like this anymore.

    Review Filthy Rich and Catflap

    This series , written by Ben Elton and starring Rik Mayall, Ade Edmondson and Nigel Planer , a sort of follow up to The Young Ones. I like this better than the earlier show. In this clip a wickedly funny p**s take of Blankety Blank quiz, with Chris Barrie, and I think Harry Enfield. Mayall...

    Review Dave Allen

    Another legend of yesteryear, his religious jokes were risqué at the time. Always enjoyed his shows.

    Review Benny Hill

    Ben Elton, a writer I much admire, particularly for his Blackadder series, really went over the top in his attacks on Benny Hill, despite here his claims of innocence.

    Review Benny Hill

    Politically incorrect, controversial now and axed eventually by Thames Tv, but adored by many and legendary in The States.
