Of all the Two Ronnies' musical routines this one in my view is by far the best.Brilliant lyrics matched to the marching tunes and superb choreography and performance. A lot of the credit for the overall effect I think belongs to the men in the chorus who play their supporting role flawlessly.
Thank god we can still watch the brilliant Two Ronnie's! This is so clever and funny. Such talent!!!! Thanks for the laughs, the more you watch this the better it gets 💜💜💜
@@alanwilson6830 They weren't ? Oh i thought there was two Ronnies not 1, that's like saying there's no Ant but a Dec, there was Morecambe but no Wise, there was Cannon but no Ball, there was a French but no Saunders
The version I like (out-takes) is when the cooks got the 'word' wrong and Ronnie 'B' made faces at the camera. Hysterical! It used to be on here, but it's been removed. Pity. 😢
For all those who asked the marches are 0:00 to 2:13 High School Cadets - J P Sousa 2:14 to 3:10 The New Colonial - R B Hall 3:11 to 4:13 Cock o' the North - composer unknown 4:14 to 6.19 King Cotton - J P Sousa 6:20 to 6:40 Washington Post - J P Sousa 6:41 to 6:59 High School Cadets - J P Sousa
you may be interested to know that Semper Fidelis is the theme tune of the Royal Marines - also it is played every time Plymouth Argyle run out on to the pitch at Home Park 😢
The two Ronnie's. Well what can u say that ain't worthy of their awesome work. Nothing that's what. Forkandles no tins of pea's. 😂 I'm proud to say I remember these legends ❤️👌
This one is right up there with Queen Victoria and the Highland Ghillie. And we met Ronnie Barker way back in 1983, when he was doing a book signing at Barker's of Kensington (appropriately enough). All ancient history now, but we remember both of the Two Ronnies fondly.
Can you imagine health and safety allowing to chop up a cucumber with a chopper. He even looked away as he got perilously close to his fingers on his other hand.
+Igor Zupnik Did these two greats ever do a skit as Himmler and Goering? Now that might even be funnier than a present day skit of Hilary Clinton & Bernie Sanders playing a game of corn hole. Corn Hole is an actual game of tossing a small bag of corn thru holes in a board, but let's hope a hole fits Bernie while carrying that HAMMER AND SICKLE and that old pic of Marx. Yes, I know most of you who are reading this are of the British Ilses, but I made this comment because "The Two Ronnies" were split a gut funnier than packets of parps on the Queen's birthday.
hi jeff, as always it is the individual who knows in his and in her harmlessness and sadness and despair about the incomprehensible and adored cruelty in the world, that when all of good heart and of sound mind and of suffering lives unite, network, speak out, the whole majority freedom fighters populations anywhere around the world can legally, morally, economically expose, define, accuse, condemn and take to court and put into prison for good, all those who have been tricked by outdated irrelevant who have allowed themselves to float and drift mindlessly in the false comforts of indifference towards the populations who are creating their own majority knowledge, purpose, rights in and for the 21st century - these are social political and indeed now anthropological turning points along the easily identifiable graphs of cyclical curves and timelined events, in the end - all that is important and that will protect populations and humanitarian community spirit, sprite, soul, is that populations seeks and yearn and determine to want to to wish to to will to find that strong spirit, sprite, soul within their aware consciousness - by the people - majority just drowned in debilitating lazyness and consumerisms and egomanic self-obsessions will not challenge any hopeless helpless who are too comfortable in the troff to do regular soul searching and common sense sounding and sanity reaffirming - reflect, redouble determination into mass democratic systems - no need to agitate, to heat, for indeed no bad can withstand the good - that is the simple obvious of the age of aquarius which is a greater scientific fact than any whose mindsets are stuck in the simplistic, convenient, inherited monopolistic past tense and past - the needs and demands of the majority of all members of society are respected and not one even the most aggressive pretender to democratic offices can any longer in 2016 defeat that deepest deep healing human humanitarian happiness humorous harmonies - no amount of money tricks seething of those cornered trapped in the darkness of self-obsession have what it takes to understand any of this - no matter how hard they try to pretend that they do understand and comply - the days, years, decades and centuries of the ruthless dictating minorities over the broken and enserfed majority populations persons people are fading too fast - the now in 2010's evermore self aware and aligned into mass population peace and into mass population purpose and into mass population principles - to want to lose time mental energy health hope drive to be trapped into limbo by responding to the trick debates and aggressive subversive questions and comments which are low animalistic tribal hostile and which have no part in the now historic and anthropological 2010's population aware awakening - asking for, determined to sense, determined to find,visioning creating today's mass aware alternatives to outdated who feel and who know that their ways views tricks slick lies are dragging them into greater reflection about their future modes minds means - creating new dynamic strong legally sound majority mass populations healing healthy community calm norms - creating those is all that matters - let the outdated talk in their own sad - only creativity creates creativity - bother about such outdated who have opportunity to reflect and to discover a new and integrated and cooperative activity within societies or rather the new generations are determining the present who are far too smart not to become victims of the slick sly trickery that is such a most sad burden to those individuals who wish to grow up into peaceful cooperative population peace, igor 10may2016tue.9.22am

Children, teenagers learn in school if they have good training at home and develop a good attitude, self respect, respect for others, and develop a sense of honor. Here's a universal truth: "Spare the rod and spoil the child".
My father was in the Indian army, and I do enjoy the two Ronnies, but for me the rather fast singing for difficult to grap properly, inspite of that did ,understand the mention of roly- poly, rissoles, curry, kippers, chips, but they missed out Yorkshire pudding, which to me is the most confusing of English dishes being an Indian.
Yorkshire Pudding fills the role that breads do in most meals - it's a filling, cheap addition to the meal, and (if made correctly) can act as a bowl to contain the main portion of the meal. Essentially though, it's just a savory pancake that's been cooked deeper and with sides to it, rather than entirely flat.
@@dreadlindwyrm I did find out what actually Yorkshire pudding was from looking it up on Google video. My eldest nephew had gone Scotland and had phoned me saying he was in Scotland since I have read lots of English novels I said " try Yorkshire pudding " thinking it to be a dessert ( pudding) so he ordered some and found that it was meat ,so he curses me for asking me eat meat ha,ha,ha.
@@anuradhainamdar8967 Oh yeah, it's a savory thing usually eaten with meat and vegetables - like I say, roughly filling the space that a flatbread would in indian and middle-eastern cuisine. It's not an exact analogy of course, but it's something that catches native English out sometimes. :D
@@anuradhainamdar8967 It's a sweet dessert that's spread with jam, rolled up and baked or steamed as a whole. It's often served with custard, and was a staple of school dinners for quite a while because it's cheap and simple, and is a filling, hot, sweet dessert for winter time. It's *sort of* like a heavy sponge cake texture.
I'm not aware of one other than it being a baked or fried meat/fish ball. They can be made quite cheaply so were used for school dinners or the army mess halls etc
Could be misunderstood for a**eholes or p*ssholes. But of course Ronnie Barker would never use such smutty innuendo. "This is because we are a family show and I will not allow smut into your home."
2:14 to 3:10 The New Colonial - R B Hall Parody. Oh we did a party on Saturday night, Terribly smart and terribly bright, Majors had the time of their life, Especially with the brigadiers wife, It was getting quite amorous on champagne, She likes a little bit now an agan, Very direct, built like a tank, and remarkably sauced be plain, There was Cornel Beaukettlery wearing spurs, marked distinctly his and hers, Lady Felicity earning applause, winning a raffle and losing her draws, An a terrible terrible terrible tongue ragu, Sat on the fork and dropped the spoon, Into the large deconitage, The brigadiers wife ensued, They were having a great big slap bang huge success, The officers there they got one hell of a mess, An the Cornel left the party in the small black dress, With a terr ibly, terr ibly, terr ibly gay success
