Its such a shame that comedians like him don't or aren't allowed to exist anymore. I'm 50+ now but grew up watching Dick in the 70s. The different characters he did (lots included in this sketch) then at the end of the show he would show the "bloopers" Usually where they'd fluffed their lines and ended up falling about laughing. Oh how I miss those days where every character trait was fair game

Oldschool classic British comedy at its best. Its simple easy comedy and Dick Emery was the father figure of many later comedians with multiple characters. A Milkman who looked like Hitler shows the genius of him.

@zetectic7968 2 года назад

The milkman is an archetype of British humour with adventures with bored and lonely housewives while the husband is at work. The 1st housewife was actress Wendy Richard, was in Are you being Served, appeared on the comedy song in the 1960's "Come Outside" and latterly a more serious role in the soap EastEnders.

@Paul-hl8yg 2 года назад

There used to be that famous sign for the milkman, a packet of OMO wash powder in the kitchen window, which stood for 'Old Man Out'. These days, unless you are a milkman named DAZ, you obviously have no chance!! 😆👍🇬🇧❤🇺🇸

Saw Dick Emery live at theatre, absolutely brilliant all the characters he did. Another comedian who was very similar was Stanley Baxter show a Scottish comedian.

@adrianbradley8513 2 года назад

Over here in Northern Ireland we had a similar comedian in the seventies called Jimmy Young.I was born in 1972 but I've watched him on DVD and listened to him on audio cassette. His humour was mostly based on the Protestant/ Roman Catholic situation over here so you really had to live over here or know about Northern Ireland life to get has humour. He also sung humourous songs to other popular tunes and did some monologues( talking along with sad music) which,as they say over here, would draw a tear from a stone.

@MrRhelli 2 года назад

The Dick Emery Show was among the first to show bloopers at the end of the show under the title Comedy of Errors. Glad you're enjoying the myriad of characters and the simple yet clever wordplay.

This was great but I am almost 68 in London and my first comedy was "The Rag Trade" with Reg Varney etc but there have been plenty of really funny shows in the last 10 years or so like . Alan Partridge, Derry Girls, Father Ted, Fleabag (Comedy-Drama) Peep Show,Inbetweeners etc

@speedtriplerider7853 2 года назад

In my experience most Yanks just don't get Limey humour and I think you were like this when you first started watching our comedy. It's been great watching you develop your understanding and appreciation. You still miss a few more subtle comedy moments but you're getting there. Your laugh is infectious and has me laughing my head off at things I've known and laughed at for years and years. Brother, you've still got so much to discover, there really is a gold mine of comedy to be discovered and I'm enjoying watching you discover it. It might interest you to know that when I was a little kid in the 60s the funniest thing for me was The Beverley Hillbillies, I really thought they were real and wanted to run off to America and go and live with them, well either them or on The Ponderosa. Keep it up mate.

@coot1925 2 года назад

I loved dick Emery when I was a kid. The British sense of humour is one of cheeky innuendo. The "carry on" films were a classic example of this humour. I miss the old electric milk floats. The milkman would give me 50p if I helped him with his delivery on the estate. Supermarkets killed the milkman off when they started selling milk at much cheaper prices.

@stevenc5227 2 года назад

@coot, yes i did the same thing back in the 70s, helping the milkman deliver round the village when i was a kid for a bit of money, wouldn't be allowed these days would be called child labour, it was a unigate milk float red and white, i would get up extra early and meet him at the end of my road, i loved to ride in the float as well.

@jillosler9353 2 года назад

I'm so glad that I grew up with this comedy when you were allowed to laugh at risque jokes and nobody took offence at everything. The reasoning behind using a milkman as the main reference was because the standing joke at an unplanned pregnancy was "it must have been the milkman"!

@lindylou7853 2 года назад

Wendy Richard - that’s where she was before, “Are you being served?” (Comedy - you’ll get to that one. One of the main characters has a cat …), and, “East Enders” (BBC daily soap based on a pub in London’s East End). Sadly, I see she died in 2009. Hard to believe when you see her answering the door to the milkman. Now, perhaps you’ll take a look at Father Ted and the Booby Trap sketch. Dougal (the naive, innocent priest who’s two baps short of a picnic), drives the milk float after Father Ted gets his predecessor sacked for being too friendly with his customers. And Benny Hill’s, “Ernie, the fastest milkman in the West’. That song went to number one!

Great Stuff EB.One of the main reasons this goes down well in the USA & abroad is because it's straight forward comedy that doesn't crack jokes about famous Brit names & places that u haven't heard of from that time period..Can u please take note of these 2. Dick Em The Seaside Blackpool & Dick Em Happily Married.Perhaps for near future showing when u can.All the best.

@lynneivison5773 2 года назад

You do know most of those characters are Dick Emery himself including some of the women. I am reminded how brilliant he is.This was what I was brought up on. Please play Benny Hill's 'Earnie, the Fastest Milkman in the West.' Same sort of silliness.

Really good reaction and I had forgotten how good Dick Emery was.True story. Between 1971and 73 a Pakistani friend of mine: Mr.Rahman, who I worked with asked me if I had seen Digger Murray last night and I thought "Australians aren;t known for their comedy?" and, of course, he said Dick Emery. It was a laugh a fortnight there:( Sadly, that last Housewife: June Whitfield, who got him beaten up, died in 2018 and only yesterday I watched a video about her unattended grave yet she had a daughter and became very famous in The UK..

@777petew 2 года назад

It was just lovely comedy and not written to offend anyone. The characters are too extreme to be true, nor representative. I lived in the 70s and even gay people would laugh. What's happened to the World when you can't laugh any more? When I was a boy, a neighbour looked at me and said to me and my parents "He doesn't look like his Dad. He must be the Milk Man's" My Mum and Dad were there and just laughed. Not meant, was ridiculous and instantly recognisable as humour. Who's offended?

@adrianbradley8513 2 года назад

Totally agree. So much of seventies comedy was based on stereotypes like the milkman and bored wives at home while their husband is at work. For some unknown reason it was ALWAYS the milkman and NEVER any other man calling at the house selling things eg coalman, breadman etc. Having said that this type of comedy wouldn't be written nowadays as the only people who call at houses nowadays are postal/courier workers because of modern living. Well over here in Northern Ireland anyway.

Great to see you enjoy classic as well as current British comedy, Eclectic Beard. Watching your reaction vids always puts a smile on my face regardless of what mood I was in prior. Keep up the good work!! A recommendation you may like; one of the most popular current panel shows here is Would I Lie To You. One of the captains is David Mitchell from Mitchell and Webb you've done before. Classic clips from that include "Lee Mack's Ex's Spell Bermuda", "Kevin Bridges Accidentally Bought A Horse" and anything with Bob Mortimer.

@robingraham6820 Год назад

So glad you have found British humour from the good old days. Word play, innuendo, whit, and much more. Analysing and presenting humour as humour kills it. “subtle” is the key word and dead pan is the secret. The best comedians never laugh at their own humour, they just look bemused. Sadly modern humour is badly damaged by PC and the need for a fall guy to make fun of. In British humour, the comedian is usually his own “fall guy”. Have a look for radio humour, there is plenty of that too. Keep enjoying and keep reminding us of the good old days when laughter was not a crime.

In my childhood ,milkmen would leave their dairies at 4am to deliver milk to the local community. Now, nobody has milkmen it is twice the price of buying it in supermarkets. We can get 6 pint cartons of milk for the same price as 2 or 3 pints of delivered milk.
