I had terrible trouble sleeping as a 10/11 year old. I used to watch this on a monday night with my mum absolutely shitting myself with worry I wouldn't sleep. Butterflies and feeling sick. Can someone confirm it was a monday ?. i'm now 66, and sleeping is still an issue with me, always as been, but I don't worry about it so much now, so consequently I sleep
When I was younger I used love Frankie…I was to young to understand the double entendres…but all the same I found him hilarious The way he spoke directly into the camera was pure genius 😂
Is there a branch of Grace Brothers in Pompeii? Mr. Rum old and Miss Brahms are in this episode, and Mrs. Slocombe and Mr. Mash have been in others. :-)
"Guest Virgin" Trisha Noble went on to become known to Sci-fi fans both as the "Hyde" half of a woman with two personas on _Buck Rogers in the 25th Century_ and as Padme Amidala's mother in the _Star Wars_ movies.
What an excellent show! Frankie was made for Up Pompeii and Up Pompeii' was made for Frankie. Fantastic script by Tolbot Rothwell and great supporting cast. Comedy at its best!
Brit comedy has its ups and downs even in the classics. Not shown here in the Philippines due to the innuendos. Just realized the late Ms Windsor's harem outfit looked like Barbara Eden's.
Love when he says something towards a sexual innuendo and the audience starts laughing them he stops and gives a dirty look as if to say your filthy minds 😂😂😂😂😂😂
This is by-far one of the best episodes in the series. Max (the senator) was so good in this role. I never tire of @29:25 to the end as it makes me laugh out loud.
Frankie Howerd - absolute genius and master of saucy innuendo. I am now sixty years of age but never tire of his humour, and stage presence, a man who simply owned the screen and could work an audience like no other. R.I.P Sir Francis ❤
Frankie Howerd at his absolute best, ad libbing, great comic timing, and presence coupled with his wonderful way of inviting the audience into his mad cap world. R.I.P Sir Francis gone but never to be forgotten ❤.
I'm not being rude but I never understood why Willie Rushton was a celebrity. Was he an actor or comedian? I remember him on a load of panel shows at the time.
I'm Surprised that Frankie Howerd didn't try the same trick as he did in another Program the Peace treaty when he dressed up as a Woman 😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢
