Aww! I’m going to have to look him up. He seemed like a very nice person.

I thought he was creepy.

@@caraevans2609 Bob Monkhouse was one of the biggest stars on British TV. A brilliant stand up comedian, he was the host of many game shows. A few years after his death in 2003, he made an advert about the cancer that killed him; in reality, they re-edited footage of him and got a voiceover from someone whose act is an uncanny impersonation of him.

I remember him doing that on celebrity squares when he failed to get a little boy a bike - he was nearly in tears.

Not long before his passing, Bob Monkhouse was feted by his peers on British show business. His comment on that occasion: "When I told people that I was going to be a comedian, they'd laugh at me. Well, they're not laughing now!"

My little Margie was a favorite of mine also.

The Amish Umpire Mine too, I loved her in My Little Margie and again in Oh Susanna. One of my first crushes on film and I was only in the single digits then.

bill ding Lovely talented woman.

Mine too! I was totally awed when I got to actually know her. I just loved her and she treated us all as if she loved us. Knowing her as a most genuine person, we knew she loved us. Awesome!

I was a fan of The Gale Storm Show, in which she worked aboard a cruise ship. Also loved "It Happened on Fifth Avenue."

Gale's falsetto was ribtickling!

I agree 100 per cent !!

In case anyone is interested, the date of my wedding was 8-8-88 @8 pm

ImaginePuppies Breath how lucky !! I love her !

I sang with her several Christmases in a row in the eighties. She was so delightful, so warm, and so talented. I will always cherish knowing her. I miss her.

@@magnificentfailure2390 The number right is very lucky in China! Didn't the Olympic games start on that day??

What a Great story!

+SaveThe TPC Time 21:17

Johan Bengtsson Thanks for supplying the time signature, Johan! I hadn't seen this in a long time, and it was great to be able to watch the part I'd commented on again! I'm sure it will also be helpful to others who read my post. :)

+SaveThe TPC My pleasure! It can be difficult to write comments without time signatures and it's more fun when you actually can listen to the remarks yourself. :)

Johan Bengtsson Agreed! I'm not sure if I was just being lazy that day or if I didn't quite get the idea of time signatures yet, but I'm glad you added it in. :) Btw, it's good to "see" you! Are you re-watching episodes you've seen before, or is this what you're up to chronologically now? I seem to remember that you may have started watching these episodes later than I did, but we've had so many interactions here on YT that I'd thought we were probably watching the same episodes around the same time, and I had caught up to Gary's posting schedule last summer, I think. --Or was it the summer before? It's all a blur already, but I think I started watching the WML channel around February of 2014.

Johan Bengtsson P.S. I just checked and see that: 1) indeed you have watched through to the last episode, as have I, and 2) Gary posted the last episode in March of 2015, so that means I must have caught up the previous summer -- towards the end of the summer, I think. But maybe you had started in the middle and are now working your way back from the beginning?

Ditto!

It's interesting to see these people again from this perspective, at 62, confirming what I was drawn to as a toddler… her heart.

She was. Just a lovely lady. She was generous of spirit to everyone, even a nobody like me.

@@cynthiat6505 no one is a nobody.

I liked her right away...was shocked to see where's she might have been murdered for her investigation into the JFK assasination...ugghh !

@@blueforest2927 That was NEVER properly investigated! Don't get me started....

@@geraldineclarke5434 and Blue Forest, yes, Dorothy's whole death "investigation" was blatantly compromised. Some people will always ignore even numerous "coincidental" facts. RIP DK

Thanks to JFKs killers for her being too nosy

Arlene Francis is beautiful.

hopicard She was indeed.

+John Tomasello That too, very much so.

She's a glitter on the panel. .

+Jason Wilson THE Glitter.

"I Hear You Knockin'" also in something like 1957.

Quite a handsome guy!

Very belated thank-you for your info...I could not find any details on when he died etc online 👍🎩

If there were any audience members under the age of 30, there is a fair chance that some of them are still alive.

What sort of responses would you be expecting? Audience members are in individual seats, are cued on when to applaud, while watching along with the rest of us. (?!?)

Leg-end. Insufferable with all the smarminess.

I read a transcript from Columbia University where Bennett Cerf said Dorothy took this game very seriously and wanted to win every time.

It was a little over the top. Of course this was 1957, but from what I've been seeing in the news of late, women don't find that behaviour very nice.

Richard Wielgosz Well, I was going to say that such comments were more acceptable back then, but the way Mr Daly chastised Bob @4.30 (“that question was out of order sir”) shows that it was clearly considered inappropriate even by other men.

@@lindashelley3635 The 4:30 part was mildly inappropriate; look at the smile on Daly's face as he issues the admonishment. He is clearly taking Bob's comment in good humour. However, compare that to Daly's reaction to Bob's question at 19:08. Daly is clearly baffled. I think at that point, Bob was so lost that he was trying to make a witty remark instead of a question (as he acknowledged himself in later years, he was never any good at improvisation but was a master at delivering crafted jokes).

@@Wizardofgosz It was creepy to say the least!! It's something that former panelist, Harold Block would say!!

Among other kinds of films!

goodiesguy Not to mention his famous joke books (that once got stolen).

His autobiography is, let’s say he has a lot of good stories.

He had a great show in the 60's about {those} movies.

I adore Benny Hill

Dorothy made some very sarcastic remarks about a Country Western singer (Patsy Cline) not all that becoming on her part.

Yes DK was very smart. I think it irked Bennett Cerf who seemed to avoid acknowledging her.

Except for the reference to attractiveness, which I take to refer to physical attractiveness, the encomium is deserved.

@@igkoigko9950 She was attractive. Watch yourself.

Women ALWAYS think or insinuate that men are “threatened” or “intimidated” by their intelligence and other things. I’ve got a secret for you ladies…..men are not the least bit threatened by anything to do with a woman’s intelligence, success or anything else. You take the fact that we don’t care as us being threatened. We care much more about your appearance and personality than anything else. The narrative that you paint has gotten extremely old. Maybe that’s the men YOU attract.

If that's the correct Sharon Laschen that would have made her awfully young at the time of this taping. About 17 or 18 years old.

She became the wife of Chicago wresting promoter Bob Luce.

Female wrestlers were much more elegant then today thats for sure..

Lemmon?

kzfaq.info/get/bejne/mNBpf7GK1LzTias.html Monkhouse was a little slimy IRL. Have you read about his escapades?

Amen to that !! :-)

She's Lovely in the Movie "The Abandoned" 1949 .

What a name.

Dot shots! LOL Good eye.

Probably trying to undo the damage done by her blindfold and its widish, ribbon-like ties. It was a big help, later on, when they switched to blindfolds with plastic earpieces resembling those found on eyeglasses -- the earpieces slid over the ears and didn't disrupt a woman's hairdo. Probably even better for many of the men as to their hair than those thin elastic straps.

Good ones, I'm sure it's not the first time she's rolled her eyes at JCD. A lot of women might want to touch up with a mirror in the presence of gorgeous Gale Storm.

I agree. Steve was my favorite 4th panelist.

He left WML to host the Tonight Show.

I got to meet him once & listen as he played the piano--very nice guy.

paacer I admit that was the reason I came to this video. I never really liked him all that much, but I was curious to see if it was him or perhaps an American celebrity with a similar name.

Looks a little bit like Anthony Newley.

@@gbrumburgh: That's an insult to Tony Newley. :)

The 3 of them are flaming toe touchers!!The smile & the twinkle in their eyes gave them away!!

@@richardmilliken5651 Doth protest too much.🌈🌈

I take it you have watched WML before.

More class and elegance than ... anyone these days, I’d say.

On television, she was on her best behavior. Who knows what she like in everyday life. Who knows what any of them were like elsewhere. Dorothy Kilgallen, for example, was an alcoholic.

A very very funny guy

An insufferable creep with all the phoney smarminess.

A lot of pendants utilize heart shaped gems or precious metals. Arlene is wearing such jewelry, too.

Me too ! I've been watching multiple reruns of that classic sitcom over the past few months on Wed nights on the "ZLiving" channel and have fallen in love with it ! Zany but cute series !

I wrestled your older sister once. She won. Oo-EEEEEE!

I was boxing with Myrna, my cousin and named after Myrna Loy, when I was 7 or 8 yrs old and so was she, when she caught me unprepared and zonked me squarely on the chin. Made me dizzy for a moment.😊😊

I agree. He often came over as a 'schmoozer' in these early days; but he was never two-faced, unlike so many others in the profession. Always generous to others. I forgot he had some kind of a profile, this early, in the States, tho'. He got around...

Right? Somehow, I think "Robert's Full House" doesn't have the same ring to it.

Absolutely! One of the BEST!

Love Charlie Ruggles, hate Victor Moore.

such a good one!

I think because that next panelist was a lefty, and he wrote his name from the other side of the board. They had to make an adjustment.

Yes, I too sensed that Gale was a little bit miffed that they didn't work out who she was after she used her own voice .. I felt a little sorry for her .. She seemed to be quite a nice person.

I don't see any resemblance between the two. Rita Hayworth was a great beauty but in a much different way. Gale Storm's eye expression is especially captivating.

The regular panelists were all New Yorker's, therefore anything outside their orbit was a bit tough.

For the mystery guest there is usually a reason why they are in New York and appearing on the show. If they could work out the reason for being in the city, they would usually work out who it is.

You're just trying to start trouble. Knock it off.

He was embarrassing.

Agree. He was definitely more bearable as he got older...

Uuuuuhhhh..Have you ever heard of a stage name?????

Such a pervert is more like it.

@@TheBatugan77 another ridiculous comment. You are irrelevant.

Greg you are probably thinking of soap opera the Secret Storm

@@robertlongwill8856 LOL, 😂 That's probably it. Thanks.

@@Theyralltakenfu NP

That's The Secret Storm. :)

Yes. It was coined by biologist Richard Dawkins in 1976 to represent a unit of cultural transmission that is passed down from generation to generation like a gene. It is only by accident that we heard it on this show. Bob Monkhouse guessed that it might be the way Americans pronounce "mime."

I think he meant a mime.

Diana Dors was also married to Richard Dawson.
