Good evening. It's good to be back with you again, isn't it, Ronnie? Yes, it is.
And in a packed programme tonight, we shall be meeting the runcorn woman who
married a gasboard fitter and complains that on her wedding night, three of them
turned up.
One to estimate the job, one to do it, and one to pick up the bits in the
morning.
Then I'll be talking to a tinsley man who got into the headlines yesterday
he sat on a lathe and gave himself a nasty turn.
But first, the news.
After three years of hard work, Irish intelligence experts today cracked
Britain's highway code.
At the indoor horticultural show today, first place in the all -comers
posy class was taken by Mr. T .A. Rose with two bunches of pansies.
The second place was taken by two pansies with a bunch of roses.
And trouble at Dartmoor Prison today when a bomb destroyed the toilet block.
Local residents have complained that since then at least 20 inmates have been
seen going over the wall.
French wine growers fear that this year's vintage may be entirely spoiled
the great tread of sit -in.
But now, a sketch featuring Mr Ronnie Corbett.
who recently gained a degree in mathematics from the Open University and
looking out for a job as a pocket calculator.
Hello?
Anybody there?
Ah, good morning.
I'm sorry, I meant... Oh, sorry, sorry, sorry.
I meant to...
I meant to... Good morning, Miss
Prendergast. You're early.
Ah, good morning.
Oh, I'm sorry.
Good morning, sir. Good morning.
Could I have two pounds of potatoes, please?
No, no, no, sir. This is an optician, sir.
What? Opticians. Look, it says so over the door. Oh, sorry.
It doesn't matter, because I was coming in here anyway, because I've got it down
on my list.
Greengrocer's an optician, you see?
Oh, I see, yes.
It was the wife's idea, actually. Oh, yes. Do sit down, will you? Thank you
much.
You're new here, aren't you? Yes, I've been here about six months, yes.
Yes, I thought I hadn't seen you before.
Yes, the other lady left to get married.
But you're not a lady, are you?
No, no, no, no. I just took her job, you see.
Would you care for a cup of tea? I just made one. That's very nice, yes.
Now, tell me, what seems to be the trouble?
Well, I've just got the feeling that my sight isn't quite what it used to be,
you see.
Yes, yes, yes.
Whatever makes you think that.
I started bumping into people at the office, you know. People I work with.
really? Yes. What sort of people? Well, the people I share the office with, you
see. I kept bumping into them and realised I hadn't seen them properly for
long time. Oh, dear.
Do you take sugar? No, no sugar for me.
Right, there we are, then.
You have that. Do sit down, and we'll see if we can work something out for
Thank you. Thank you very much.
It can be rather inconvenient, you know, spectacles, and I don't know, do you
wear them at all?
Well, I must confess, yes, I do wear them, yes, but only for reading and for
seeing things, you know.
Yes, well, I was passing by, so I thought I'd just sort of pop in, you
Yes, yes.
Well, you obviously need something a lot stronger.
Yes, I do. Thank you very much.
Well, I'll tell you what we'll do. Yes. We'll just have a look at some eye
charts, shall we? Yes. And we'll test your eyes. Right, yes.
Is there a
dog in here?
No, no, no, that was me. I was just scratching myself.
Right, now then, let's start.
Before we start, would you take off your glasses, please? Yes.
Are they off?
Yes. Oh, good. Yes, well, let's start.
Start here from the top, would you, reading? Right.
I'm sorry, could you wave your arms about? I've lost my sense of direction a
bit.
I'm over here. Oh, yes, sorry. That's it.
That's completely stumped me, that chart. I'm sorry.
Don't worry. We've got plenty more. Try the one on the back.
A.
I say try the one on the back. No, A.
Oh, A. No, no, not A. B.
No, C. D.
No, E.
E. Very good, yes, E.
Try the next line, would you?
No, sorry. Don't worry, I'll give you a clue.
What do you see with?
Your eye. Eye. Eye.
And what do you do with your eye?
See? See.
Try the next line on your own.
I'm sorry, is there a next line?
No,
probably not, probably not.
You know, I'm sorry, I have to say this. I almost didn't see any of that last
chapter. Don't worry, it's just a question of trial and error.
Don't worry about it.
Now then, let's have a look.
What about that?
Eh? And I didn't help at all with that one.
No, I don't. No, I've got... I... No, that's the hat stand.
H... No, you're reading all the furniture.
See if you can grab the end of this long pole. Yes, I've got it. Have you got
it? Yes. Thank goodness for that.
I'm just going to get the test frames now. We'll try a few less. Right.
Yes, here we go.
Right. Right, here we are.
Now, we just... Just put these on.
All right.
That's it. Are they all right? Yes.
Good. Now then.
First of all, we have to black that one out, you see? Yes, yes. Now, let's have
a look one at each other. Uh -huh.
Tell me, is that better or worse?
That is worse. Oh.
Well, let's see now.
What about that?
How's that?
That's fractionally better.
What about if I do that? No, that's worse.
All right, that's it. Well, that is your prescription. Then I'll just... All we
need now is to find out what sort of frames you would like. Yes.
Off you go. Follow me. Right.
I... Sorry.
Now, let's see what sort of frames we've got here.
Now, here we are.
Try this nice red pair on. There we are.
Let me have those.
Thank you.
Try those. Have a look at those. There you are. Look in the hand mirror. See
what you think.
I think this makes me look a little old.
Oh, yes, it does, doesn't it? Oh, wait a minute, this is not a mirror. This is a
photograph of an old lady. Oh, they're no good at all. Have you any others at
all? Well, there's these.
What about these?
These are... Oh, wonderful!
I can see everything as clearly as I... Oh, they're mine, they're mine. No, no,
these are yours. There.
Are you sure? Yes, you... Good gracious!
things become clear to me. Wonderful.
Isn't that lovely? I trust you just send me on the bill? Certainly not. I
wouldn't dream of such a thing. No, no, no. I mean, you've helped me just as
much as I've helped you.
Last
year
I spoke to you appealing for help for those who, like myself, have trouble
worms.
They can't pronounce their worms correctly.
Now, I am the secretary for the Loyal Society for the Relief of Sufferers from
Pismonunciation.
Now, the reason I am once more squeaking to you tonight is that many people last
time couldn't understand what I was spraying.
So I am back again on your little queens to strain it and make it all queer for
you.
It's a terrible thong to be ting -tied.
It's even worse when your weirds get all mucked up and come out in wakase that
you dick -knock what you're thugging again.
Like I did just then, only crutch much nurse.
Now, it can be cured by careful draining at special draining stools, which the
society has fed up all over the Twittish Isles.
And for the really dicky -felt cases, we have a three -week bash course on the
Isle of Fright.
The doctors can get to grips with the patients, and the nurses can get to
with the doctors, and everyone has a dolly good climate.
Except the patients, of course, who find it dudley dell. A dudley deal. Dilly
doll.
Or, in other words, bitefully flooring.
People have tried to cure themselves. They stand in front of their bod room
mirror and say, every day, in every way, I get bitter and butter.
But it doesn't cure them. You can bot your wife.
And most of them usually do.
The disease is spreading. It affects people from all walks of life.
Members of the swivel service, lawyers, silly sodders.
Commercial dribblers, cock keepers and whackery furkers.
Especially on the nightshirt.
And, of course, famous piddly -titions like Widdly Hamilton.
Not forgetting Peanog Owl.
Stars of Screege and Stain like Black Migraine, Frantic Howard and Peculiar
Clark.
And, of course, rude old Nuria for the Barry Dangler.
How can you help? Well, for a tart, it's no good... It's no good simply trying
to correct people when they suffer from this complaining distress.
My wife does it to me all the time.
Lucky old you, I hear you swear.
No, no, I mean she corrects me when I get any ring thong, and it makes me
and ingrate.
Last time I backed her up the kick side.
We need money.
Your money.
You may row ashore that it will be put to the best possible use by myself and
large and loyal stiff.
Send your chocks or pistol orders today.
Smash open your baggy pink.
Dip your hand into your wife's bags and send us a few cod hoppers.
Why not simply slip a pond newt into an envelope?
Send your donations to me, Popter Poggesmish.
My new address, 51 Doobly Road, Kiddling Dorset.
I'll just repeat that, Dr Smidger Posh, Wifty Fun Doobly Road, Kiddling Dorset.
Thank you for glistening. Good night and a crappy Christmas to you.
The tourist season in London.
Excited foreigners pour in from all over the globe, lured by London's glamour,
its unrivaled pageant of history, and its shady night spots, where anything
might happen and hardly ever does.
But this particular season has its own special grisly extra attraction.
Murder.
A dead yokel.
One of a long line of dead yokels.
whose bodies had been appearing with increasing frequency throughout the
Police were mystified. At Scotland Yard, they were twiddling their thumbs and
fidgeting with their feet. And a few miles away, in Neasden, Charlie Farley,
important half of that well -known two -man team, waited for the other one -and
-a -half, Iggy Malone, to return.
My search was completely fruitless.
All the greengrocers are shut.
Never mind greengrocers, read this.
Never mind, never mind greengrocers. I've got to get fresh fruit if I'm going
stay on this diet.
It's the only thing I fancy.
Well, read that. That'll make your mouth water.
Well, what is it?
Real front page stuff. That's what it is.
Where? It's a real inside story, this is.
Well, make your mind up. Is it on the front page or inside?
Next page.
You will notice there, side by side, two almost identical features.
Yeah. Nice, isn't it?
Not page three, page two.
Two stories. Both murders, both young men, both in London, both with their
trousers tied with string.
What are they trying to hide?
I don't know.
What would you be trying to hide if you tied your trousers up with string?
My point in a nutshell.
Well, there you are.
Both men were identically dressed, and the railway tickets and the possessions
in the pockets proved that they both come from the same village in Devon.
Drake's Bottom.
Drake's what?
Exactly.
Funny name, isn't it?
Sounds like a polite way of describing a haircut.
Is that really a village? Well, I've looked it up in the railway guide. The
train leaves 8 .30 in the morning.
Train? You're not suggesting we get on a train to Devon, are you? Well, I'm not
going all the way on a tandem.
And you wait in my butterfly equipment bouncing around.
No, I mean, are you suggesting we take the case?
Certainly. This village obviously holds a secret.
These two men were murdered because they were about to spill the beans.
It's exciting.
All right, all right.
But I shall travel as Mickey Dunn, the famous crime novelist.
What will you wear?
What I'm wearing now?
Well, what's the point of changing your name?
Look, who you are has nothing to do with the clothes you wear nowadays, is it,
eh? I mean, some of them writers are very scruffy, you know. Oh, I think
be all right.
Of course, you, you will have to travel as Algy, my schoolboy nephew.
Ah, why's that?
Oh, fair, isn't it?
room for two in here?
Oh, I think so.
We're both small ones, aren't we?
No, I mean two more.
Me and my uncle.
He's a big one.
Oh, I see.
And yes, I'm going to the restaurant car in a minute anyway.
Oh, fine.
It's all right in here, Uncle Mickey.
There's only one person in here. It's a very old lady. She won't be with us for
very much longer.
Oh, yeah, I see what you mean.
Oh!
You all right? Yeah.
One of your balls is rolling out the door, look.
Take the net out, that's it.
There we are.
I don't know why you brought this at all.
Could you go and just sit over there, please? You're making the place a bit
untidy.
Sorry, sorry.
I think I'll go to the restaurant and call now.
Oh, I wouldn't want you to go before your time.
to the restaurant car now.
We already just got that.
Lucky the barrier was still open. Yeah.
The trouble is I didn't have time to get any tickets.
Still, it's all money saved, isn't it, mate?
Look at that cow.
It's all right for you saying that, but of course I'm in double trouble, aren't
I? How do you mean?
Well, not only am I trying to travel half fare, but I'm trying to avoid
that as well.
So if the inspector catches me for not paying half fare, then he can catch me
again for trying to pay half fare, instead of the full fare, as opposed to
who are only paying full fare.
Well, that sounds fair.
Well, half fare, anyway.
There's another one.
What? So what are we going to do, then? I mean, he'll be here soon. He's in the
next carriage.
Tell you what, I'll disappear, and you tell him that your uncle, Mr Mickey
has got the ticket fee.
The name might impress him. Perhaps he's read my book.
Oh, don't forget to use your little schoolboy voice, though. Otherwise the
disguise means nothing, doesn't it?
What are you going to do?
I'll lock myself in the loo.
Great heavens!
Tickets, please.
My uncle, Mickey Dunn, has got my ticket, sir.
And where is he?
He's popped out for a moment, sir.
OK.
You're not going to make a catapult, are you?
Oh, no, sir, it's just I've got a terrible cold.
And I'm going to Devon for the conker season, sir.
And what is your uncle's name?
Mickey Dunn, sir. Well -known crime writer, sir.
Okay. Hey, are you done?
Not yet, no.
I dodged him.
Look at these, Chief.
Our two heroes stood amazed, dumbfounded. What was the significance
grisly clues?
Was it murder on the Exeter Express?
What was up at Drake's Bottom?
Find out next week in the second exciting episode of Stop.
You're killing me.
Ladies and gentlemen, the Nolan sisters.
I think I'll have a pint of, um... What, light? No. Brown? No.
Marge? No. Bitter? Bitter. Have a pint of bitter. A pint of bitter. Yeah.
Well, how are you doing, eh? All right. Marge and Grumble.
Marge and Grumble.
Just been at the, um... Up club? No. What, the donk's one? No.
Fish shop? No.
Only I've been having a bit of trouble with my, um... Chest?
No. Ears?
Waterworks?
No, wife.
Oh, wife.
No.
Only she's got it in her head that I'm a little bit, I'm, um... Uh, what,
annoyed with her? No, no, no.
What, a drunk?
No, um... What?
No, uh... No, a bit under the weather. Oh, I see.
The doctor's examined me thoroughly, says nothing to worry about at all.
So it's all right. Yeah.
Got me to drop my... Oh, yeah.
Had a good look at my... Go on.
He told me there was nothing to worry about at all. He said, on the contrary,
said I was very... First class? No.
Fascinated? No.
Not friendly? No.
Fit, fit, very fit.
You know, very fit for a man of... 90.
No, no.
It's nice to know, really. Yeah, yeah.
Of course, I only went up there on the... On the bus? No.
On the off chance. On the off chance.
You been up there lately?
No, I haven't. No, no. We changed it up there now.
Oh, dear, yeah. He's got this marvellous great big new... Rolls Royce? No.
Receptionist? Receptionist, yeah.
Marvellous great big new set. Oh, she's got it all... All up here? No.
You know, I just stood there in a... In a queue?
No.
What, in a vest? No.
In a draught? No.
In amazement. Oh, amazement.
But I could compare a belt up there now, you know.
So now all this sexy quality business, you know, none of them cubicles anymore.
You know, all the fellas had to take off their shirts and they stood against
that wall over there. And all the ladies took off their dresses and sat in...
Sat in blouses? No.
You're not sat in panties? No, no.
Rose, sat in Rose.
Oh, sat in Rose.
Rose up there now, that young, um, that young Julie.
Julie? Yeah, you know, her mother's got them two big, um... Teeth? No.
Bay windows? What?
Alsatians. Oh, Alsatians.
She keeps taking them on the common and they keep biting people in the, um... In
the leg? What,
in the front entrance? No, no, no.
In the evenings. Oh, in the evenings.
Yeah. Julie.
Yeah, you know her, don't you? What was she doing up there? Well, she was...
Well, apparently she went with this young fella one evening and they fell in
duck pond and now she's... Pregnant? No.
Stagnant? No.
Pregnant? Pregnant. No, no, no. Now she's off work with a cut foot.
Yeah,
doctor said she was very lucky with that duck. I mean, it could have been a lot
worse. It could have been a septic... Septic tank, yeah.
Septic toenail. Oh.
Shoes up there and... Yeah. Well, I'd better get going off here.
Are you off? Yeah.
Thought I might go home tonight and give the wife... Evening off from the
washing up.
Yeah. Bought a stout and a fish supper.
A night she'd never forget.
There's an idea, though.
Thanks for the suggestions. I might give her all three.
Thank you very much, studio audience. Thank you very much. You're lovely,
are lovely.
Here we are. We were just saying backstage there, aren't they a fantastic
audience? And what have we done to deserve them?
And who's going to tell them the coach is gone?
No, it hasn't.
I just said that, you know, to sort of bring the atmosphere down a bit.
Now, if you're too happy, you know, the people at home will think they're
missing something.
And except for the orgy scene, you know, and the topless wire walkers, they've
seen everything.
Anyway, it's good to be back here and back in the old chair, even though it's,
you know, it's getting a little bit uncomfortable.
I did actually phone the controller of the BBC and ask if I could have my chair
stuffed. And an unfortunate phrase, I suppose. And it's not my fault that he
doesn't like the show.
I may to tell you a very funny story about a chap who goes out to shoot a
By the way, in case there are any animal lovers looking in, you know, or anyone
else for that matter, I must tell you that he doesn't actually shoot the bear.
It's a perfectly harmless little story.
When it was told to the queen, she laughed.
And so did Albert.
There is this chap.
There's this chap in America.
And all his life, he's wanted to shoot a bear in the Rockies.
Now, why should... Do
you mind if I say that again and see if I can see the funny side of it?
Why he should want to do a thing like that, I don't know.
Personally, myself, I couldn't kill a fly. I tried it once and it got the
of me.
So this chap gets himself a gun, and off he goes to hunt bears in the majestic
grandeur of the Rocky Mountains. A bonus.
If you don't like the joke, you can admire the scenery.
You see now, don't you, that these jokes are specially stolen, sorry, selected,
for their utmost entertainment value. I mean, I could have told you any old bear
joke, such as the one where the baby polar bear said to his mother, Mother!
All right, we're done.
We can't all be Percy Edwards here.
Mother, he said.
Mother, he said. Am I really a polar bear?
To which she replies, of course you're a polar bear. What else?
Suddenly we've got a Jewish polar bear there.
I don't know how that crept in, I'm sure.
I haven't done a bar mitzvah for a month.
A bit later he says, are you absolutely sure I'm a polar bear?
She says, what are you trying to do, break your mother's heart?
There I go again.
I should never have had lunch with my agent, you know.
Well, I'm Scottish and she's Jewish, you know.
Such an embarrassing scene about the bill.
In the end, the waiter paid it.
So the mother bear said, the mother bear said, what makes you think you're not a
polar bear?
He said, because I'm bloody freezing.
I'm sorry, a naughty word. I'm sorry about that. It slipped out.
I'll bet there'll be a few letters about that.
But I don't mind, to be honest. I've had so little fan mail lately.
I think our letterbox has healed up.
You know, at one time, I used to think that perhaps all my fan letters were
going to the wrong address, to be honest.
I even started learning Hindustani, you know, so that I could have a chat with
our postman about it.
But I only got as far as the pen of my aunt is up the Kaiba and I gave up.
I'm sorry to burden you with my troubles, you know, but if you switch
the other channel, you'll only pick up in one of the middle of one of those,
know, underwater films, you know, with the crew of the Calypso searching the
reef for the giant groper, you know.
Anyway, if it's giant gropers you want, you know, we've got a seven -foot scene
shifter back here who's frightened more chorus girls than old Jack Custer that
has frog legs.
But I digress. Back to the story. This chap sets out to shoot a bear.
And when he gets near the mountains, he meets an old prospector. You know, he
says, hey, four eyes, he said.
He said, where's all them bears? Come on, you tell me where all them bears
or I'll chuck your hat in the puddle.
Yet another voice.
Well, a gift like mine, who needs talent, I'll tell you.
Jewish gestures and an American voice. And the old man said, all right, he
All right, slightly different American accent. He said, all right, he said, you
go up there in that mountain tonight and you'll find a big cavern. You stand
inside the entrance into that cavern and you shout, woo, woo, until you hear an
answering call. Then you get your gun ready.
You get your gun ready and you get it.
So anyway, the hunter went up. I'm getting carried away. Once I find the
I like to talk it into all the time.
So the hunter went up to the mountain, and he stood at the entrance of this
cavern, shouting, woo -woo, and suddenly heard, woo -woo, back.
And he got his gun all ready to shoot, and he was knocked down by a train.
Good evening, ladies and gentlemen.
Now, as this is our very first visit to this country, I would like to say that
it's wonderful to be with you all once again.
Is it not? Is it not, John?
Oh, sure, Celsius.
We've got some brand new songs for you, too. In fact, they're so new, I haven't
heard them ourselves yet.
We sincerely hope you're going to enjoy them anyway, so here we go, then. Four,
five.
It was on a Monday morning in the middle of the night. I dreamt that I had woken
up. It gave me such a fright.
I thought I got insomnia. It nearly made me weep. But luckily, when I woke up, I
found I was asleep.
Thinking I'll have a drink with you. Yes, I'll have a beer. But if I catch
with the wife, I'll dunk you in beer.
It was on a Tuesday morning, and the woman I was with, she said that she was
thirsty, and she asked me for a quid. Oh, I could drink the river dry, says
I do declare, says I, the river's got a bank, so borrow a quid from there.
Singing, I'll have a drink with you, I'll have a gin, but if I catch you
about, I'll bash you right in.
It was on a Friday morning and it really was a trial.
The wife, she craved affection, but I couldn't raise a smile.
Me get up and go has got up and went, but I don't care no more.
When I think the places me get up and go has got up and been before.
Singing, I'll have a drink with you, I'll have a stout. But if I catch you
your wife, I'll bash your brains right out.
Thank you. Now, before we carry on, I would like to introduce both of the trio
to you.
First of all, my name is Pete Cutter, and I'm a Pete Cutter.
And these two here is called the Boggers, on account of they both work in
bog, cutting the feet.
Now, this here is Sean, and he is the champion Bogger of the South West.
Ah, he's a marvellous little Bogger.
He has learned to clog dance in the bog, haven't you, Sean? Oh, indeed, yes, I
sure have.
He spends his whole day dancing in the bog, and that's not easy, is it, Sean?
Oh, no, it's not.
Because you get your feet very, very wet in the bog when you're dancing, don't
you? Oh, you do indeed, very wet, yes. Especially if somebody pulls the chain.
Now,
in his next number, Sean is going to give us an example of his dancing. Now,
usually play the bones during this number.
But I've got a terrible headache this evening, so I'm going to play two sticks
of rhubarb instead.
Here we go now, and the song is called Thump Thump. Thank you.
I love the girl. I take him behind the chair.
I don't know what to say to them because I'm simple in the head.
But I've got a little trick. The place is there I found.
