Very true, every characterisation was done with affection, there was nothing offensive in it. I know fashions change in everything, including humour. But where are today's comedians who can hold a one hour TV show together like the late, great Dick Emery, Les Dawson, Larry Grayson or Stanley Baxter - to name just four great comic names of the 'seventies and 'eighties. They are very much missed! Will Ant and Dec get belly laughs like this, 40 years from now? They don't even get them today!

Dick Emery is hugely underrated imo- for someone who was on BBC prime time for most of my childhood and is genuinely hilarious it’s surprising he hasn’t had the recognition he deserves, partly no doubt because it never gets repeated on British TV He did use stereotypes but there was no sense of hatred - the format of the show worked brilliantly with the recurring characters and I thought it was seaside humour done much more intelligently than Benny Hill who you reviewed recently Really hope you react to some more Dick Emery, Alan - love your channel

During the 70's and 80's UK TV had many sketch shows like the Two Ronnies, Dick Emery Show, Monty Python, Benny Hill show, Tommy Cooper show, Morecombe and Wise, Not the Nine O'clock News. These shows were usually on Friday, Saturday and Sunday evenings. Usually it was a sketch show, then a sitcom, then a chat show, then the news and then late night documentaries like Whicker's World, then TV stations would closed down from 1am til 7am.

Dick Emery had about 12 characters that he played in every show. One of the best ones which wasn't included in this particular sketch was 'Lampwick' the old butler. Many of the characters had catch phrases that they always used. The gay one said, "Hello honky-tonk, how are you?" and the 'young woman' always said, "Ooh you ARE awful, but I like you," before pushing the man over.

After having lived in Kenya for 3 years where my dear departed mother passed her driving license (a feat in itself with most of the drivers never having had a test), we moved to Scotland where she had to take another test. Her test examiner was a dour Scotsman and at one point told her to make an emergency stop, which she did but he said that was not "emergency". These were the days when there weren't any seat belts .... and told her to try again. This time she really hit the pedals and the poor examiner's head cracked the windshield. He wasn't very happy but had to give her her licence - that would have made a good sketch !!!!

I used to love Dick Emery as a kid! As for Kenny Everett, one that springs to mind which I found on RU-vid is listed as 'Spiderman needs a squizzle'. It's a short clip & a bit grainy but I think it's funny as I remember this sketch from the show. I also think his character Reg Prescott was hilarious. There's another clip titled 'The Best of Kenny Everett Reg Prescott Diy', but there are so many funny moments from his shows it's hard to pin down anything in particular as he was so funny!

Loved Dick Emery. With regards to Kenny Everett, there's a goldmine of fantastic comedy from him. He was a genius on both radio and television. As others have mostly recommended his best characters, I'd recommend his Rod Stewart and Bee Gees sketches. Both comedy gold. I'd also recommend his Spiderman sketch, although that's probably too short for a reaction video.

The show ran for 18 years, 160+ episodes. Typically it was made up of loose sketches like this, where his regular characters interacted with other performers, a regular feature were vox pop interviews with passing members of the public, all his characters. He wanted a change by 1981, and he was starting to work on other styles of comedy, but he died of a heart attack in 1983.

Paul Hogan had a similar show before he did the Crocodile Dundee films. He was pretty good but I think Dave Allen's At Large shows were best, he was a great story teller and incorporated some good sketches into his shows too.

Another of Kenny Everett’s characters I just thought of was Reg Prescott the DIY expert. Any of these sketches featuring Reg are very brilliantly done, too! Check ‘em out!

Reg Prescott, Cupid Stunt, Marcel Wave, and Sid Snot...........wonderful characters all..........and as if the show wasnt already brilliant enough, because it was so funny, it had Hot gossip and Cleo Rochas............and a cardboard cut-out Michael Parkinson as well.........

@@MichaelHill-we7vt Yeah! I could never tell the.difference between the cardboard cutout and the real Michael Parkinson most of the time! 😀 But, yeah, all of Kenny’s characters were brilliant, absolutely! I don’t know if you have seen those “live action” sketches he did of Captain Kremmen at all, where uKenny played.the Captain and if anyone can remind me again who the young lady was that played Carla. She did the character justice I thought! Worth seeing again particularly the “brick wall” one. The breakdown in communication between the Captain and Carla is hilarious! Thanks for your reply, Michael! Enjoy life!

@@johnrowley5833 indeed.....great comedic memories....back in the time when we could just laugh at things because they were funny! And Kenny WAS funny.....he didnt take himself seriously (or anyone else for that matter!) and that Rod Stewart Mickey-take is still one of the funniest things I've ever seen............. all the best, my friend! regards

@@MichaelHill-we7vt Thanks. And just a quick mention too, he did those other two that I knew of similar to the Rod Stewart one. He did Elton John where his glasses grew to a ridiculous size and I am more certain it was Barry Mannilow than Barbara Streisand, where the nose grew too! We could go on all day talking about them couldn’t we? So many great ones! Cheers, my friend. All the best to you!
