"A place where, until recently, the hand of man had never set foot." Priceless.

You have to hand it to them ... today's comedians can not stand toe to toe with such handiwork ... they would not even get a foot in the door back then!

Love these sketches, yet, on this point, I'm compelled to observe that the Thom(p)sons have already used this phrase in "Explorers on the Moon."

Ronnie Barker had a nonpareil facility for mixing linguistics and comedy. Brilliant. He was truly a thinking-person's comedian.

"Now, how can we conjure up this picture of writhing naked bodies glistening with sweat from these two relics? Is it the wonderous science of archaeology? Or should I be back on the tablets?"

Superlative! I well remember the priggish professor who hosted the original program. This is delightful.

@sgtgorillaz Hahaha, I don't think so, cause he kind of stifles a laugh when he corrects himself. I almost died laughing when I realised he didn't mean to.

2:02, was that a screw up covered up by improv or is that in the actual script?

@YorkshireNutte 7 жыл бұрын

He said years later on the Two Ronnies show that it was an impro. Ronnie B was always good for ad-libbing

This has got to be an imitation of Patrick Moore, surely?

@helenwood8482 8 жыл бұрын

+DieFlabbergast No, because Patrick Moore talked about space.

+Helen Wood Oh, God give me strength! It doesn't matter what the subject of the talk is: the manner of speech is a dead ringer for Patrick Moore.

+DieFlabbergast Now you mention it, I think he his!

@TheOmanJam 8 жыл бұрын

It is pretty Patrick Moore-ish I agree. It's interesting that Ronnie mentions David Bellamy and Magnus Pyke but does not mention Patrick Moore because he is probably impersonating him. All three of them, Moore, Bellamy and Pyke once appeared together on Parkinson, more eccentric television popular scientists in one place than ever seen before or since.

@DieFlabbergast 8 жыл бұрын

Thanks for your input. Moore, Bellamy, and Pyke all together in one place, eh? It sounds like a critical mass! I'm surprised there wasn't an explosion!

It was difficult to hear because the studio audience's laughter was loud.

A good test of this Ronnie's pronunciation is to pay the video at half speed. Click the cog wheel under the video and use some common sense should do the trick.

+TCG1984 It was filmed in front of a live studio audience at the BBC Television Centre studios in London.

@Thusssle 8 жыл бұрын

thats hard to believe

@johnking5174 8 жыл бұрын

It was, in Studios TC1, TC4, TC6 or TC8. 250 members of the studio audience where there from 7.30pm-10.00pm.

@johnking5174 8 жыл бұрын

Only exterior pieces were filmed without an audience, such as their long comedy sketches set as dramas. All was done in studio with an audience. Why? Are you from the UK?

@Thusssle 8 жыл бұрын

Solid info, did you work at the studios or something? My family lives in UK I am from America but grew up watching these shows. It just seemed like a ton of intense laughing that its notably related to canned laughing machines.
