Many thank 4 this great stuff. Ah Katie Boyle I remember her well, she was ubiquitous on Telly for years, especially on stuff like Eurovision Song Contest. But we never saw her like that in her unmentionables. If she'd done Eurovision like that it would have sent viewing figures sky high, not to mention viewers pulses and hear beats !!!

She actually presented Eurovision 1974 live from Brighton wearing no undercrackers...because they showed under her chiffon dress. True ztory.

one sequence reminded me of the coconuts for horses scene in holy grail. Maybe that's where they got it from.

@chriswatson7965 5 жыл бұрын

Using coconuts or similar as a comedic substitute for horses in stage plays has been around forever. The comedic novelty in Holy Grail was to do it in a movie and make it look like an unfinished placeholder for real horses, and all the meta-humour that is associated with that.

Dave Smith It wasn’t written into the script. They planned for horses but had no money, so they thought fuck it let’s use coconuts.

And Jethro Tull used 'Chateau D'Isaster' (from the Count Of Monte Carlo sketch) as a title for some out-takes from Chateau D'Herouville on a box set later.

Grace Kelly at the end. Such a tragic end.

irish66 - no doubt. Cleese was a huge devotee of Sellers and the Goon show. Transpersonals - not really. Comedy TV maybe. But Sellers and Milligan had been doing radio comedy for years. Its interesting to see this archival footage. Milligan did a longish running TV show later - Beachcomber. BBC managed to destroy all record of it afaik. Sad. Wait, some audio has been preserved by a fan, kzfaq.info/get/bejne/j6-IhayJnJarcWQ.html
