20:55 This sketch just bypasses all sense and reason and goes straight to the funny bone. I can understand why some people might think it's a load of rotten, boorish, self-indulgent claptrap, but clever people like me who talk loudly in restaurants can see that it's an extension of what Spike started in The Goon Show - the deep roots of punk rock. Untrammelled chaotic lunacy.

when comedy was just that.......... not the patronizing bull we are forced to tolerate today......... thanks again for the good laugh mate..... much appreciated in this sour world

I love it when Spike cracks up.

"Mr Jonathan King, a tree surgeon, was injured today when he fell out of a patient". I really do think that Spike is the only person who could have come up with that joke.

Oh, what a joy. Hilarious, start to finish. Thanks for uploading that.

classic spike

Yes at that time people thought that English did speak with cockney rhyming slang put fancy slipping fancy a Donald into prime time viewing is brilliant and he says it a few times without the faintest of a complaint normally if the BBC got to know what was meant he would have been banned from appearing on TV or any live performances.

Spike was also a great singer to

He was hit with a boxing glove at the beginning? Well, he was playing Morecambe and Wise's tune and they might not have taken kindly to it. Very clever opening titles.
