RIP big Bernard Bresslaw. He passed away a few years after this. Unfortunately he had a 'real' funny turn and died suddenly in his dressing room before going on stage in the summer of 93'. Think this was one of his last tv appearances. Also interesting how Miriam Margolyes and Maureen Lipman now actually look just like this without the make-up.
I remember this, to a degree, I was a baby when this was shown, but I feel nostalgic for it, oh the good old days when folk didn't have to be young and pretty to be on telly.
Wow, I remember this like it was yesterday. I was just thinking about the bit when Harry says 'come for dinner' and grabs the last fish finger! Great upload.
@@AndrewEdwardBailey Wow ,really. I 1st saw her when I was 8 as well, in that BT Ology advert, I'm 40 this next year so we similar age. Didn't know I was related at that time, just saw her as an old looking woman in the classic advert, didn't find her attractive, thought she was about 60 odd. So yh, I've never met her cuz she fell out with my mum at a family wedding. She said "eating again are you you fat cow" to my mum's mum, thinking it was her own mother as they looked similar from behind. It was mistaken identity, but my mum never forgave her. Probably a hint of jealousy that she was becoming this famous actress as well I imagine. But look it's all gone fucked now and I really need to talk to her myself and have her advocate me. Something severely fucked up happened to me. So yh I had a really jinxed event happen to me in the lottery. There's a man called Neil Trotter, you can look him up on Google, he won £108 million in the lottery in 2014. 3rd highest ever jackpot at the time. Well I gave him his 2 pet cats 7 years before he won after my cat had kittens and I kept the runt of the litter after my other cat, (the mother's sister) died about a week after she gave birth to them. I played the lottery cuz of my connection to him and somehow came up with what were the next set of winning jackpot numbers due to these silly interesting observations I was making in the draws. didn't put them cuz of this unfair series of events that happened in the shops and ALL of the numbers came up. I threw away not just £36 million, but 2 Euromillions winners in a row that share cats and are from the same town. This is obviously rather too much for my brain to handle. I had a bad stroke a year later at age 34 which destroyed my video game talent where I hold countless World records at games, not good. My mum then dies 1 week later whilst I'm in the hospital. Things can't get much worse.. I get sent to mental hospital as I have a story about the lottery where I sound delusional obviously. I was put on drugs for schizophrenics when I'm vulnerable autistic, not crazy in the slightest. As a result of this wrong decision I am now in a whole new world of shit: This evil homeless crackhead woman called Jackie befriended and manipulated me in there. A very long complicated story, but when I got out of there, a few weeks later she stayed the night around my house. When I eventually fell asleep she went round my house and she robbed me good of some very sentimental and valuable possessions... Among the haul she found my stack of vintage framed autographed photos of old pop stars and she stole the best 3. there was 11 I think, now there's only 8. She stole Billy J Kramer, Peter, Paul and Mary, but worst of all she stole the pride of my collection which was the George Harrison and I am now totally destroyed over how this \and how this has now happened to me as well.. Now look, this autograph is very significant you see; my mum was the main screaming Beatles fan from the famous old photos; if you Google 'Hull Beatles fans' you will see my mum in the middle of the photo with her hands behind her head, screaming. After the gig she posed as a reporter from the Hull Gazette where she got backstage and interviewed the Beatles, then got all their autographs on a piece of card which thankfully I do still have. And she also got the George Harrison photo signed and framed since he was her favourite member and is this which has now been stolen from me. I need it tracked down via public plea obviously cuz anxiety off the scale now, but getting the media to listen to me and help me is proving to be an impossible task. Well at least I still have Auntie Maureen, people will listen to her.. Wikipedia says that she attended an early Beatles concert, so yh she was at it as well and will be well aware that my mum was the main fan from the concert. So I got to talk to her and get her to spread the word about what's happened. This will obvious;y be very tricky as well, hopefully she don't see me as a crazy guy or whatever, gonna be mighty difficult trying to explain what happened whilst keeping integrity, but I kind of have no choice but to do this now. I want to ask her what happened at the wedding as well, get her side of the story and yh, tell her my mum died now as well obviously, and her important autographs now pawned for crack. I guess I contact her via her agent then?
@@AndrewEdwardBailey Hey thx. Yh I'm connected to some truly bonkers stuff. You'd be so amazed if I were to list them all. But my mum's 1st cousin David Sugarman who is more related to Maureen than my mum, was best friends with Rik Mayall and Ade Edmondson at Manchester university, doing drama together, he taught Rik Mayall how to play Greensleeves on piano apparently. well they've always been my favourite comedians, liking Bottom mainly. was obviously well freaked out when finding out about the connection I have to them here. Rik died a few weeks after my lottery fail. As if I wasn't depressed enough, then my favourite comedian dies, joke's on me. I obviously always wanted to meet him and ask about my mum's cousin but that not happening anymore which really upsets me. I feel that if I'd won that lottery then it would changed entire course of events since it such a major occurrence of chance. Just maybe he wouldn't have died had I won the lottery. I need my story scripted and made into a film as it's that good and important an event. I've been told that Ben Elton would be the ideal person that can do my story justice so would like to talk to him about it as well. He was at university with mum's cousin as well obviously, a couple years below them and will know my mum's cousin so maybe he'd have time for me and help me. I' m sure I'll eventually get to talk to Maureen in coming months as well. I'll let her know about your liking for her if you like and can try to get you to meet her as well as you shown such a life-long interest. I shall not forget.
@@AndrewEdwardBailey Yes, my life is ridiculous; I live 10 doors up the road from where Meredith Kercher lived before she got murdered, we crossed paths all the time and smile at e/o. I worked with Mark Dixie who murdered Sally Anne Bowman. A friend and I were hijacked in my friends car by Stuart Hazell about 10 years before he murdered Tia Sharpe, so I'm connected to maybe the 3 biggest murders of the century from this country. My best friend from university made the news when he supposedly joined Isis and his wife got imprisoned for trying to smuggle their kids across to Syria. Look up Sajid Aslam and Lorna Moore if you want to read about that one. My grandfather was chairman of the Natwest bank for the West End of London in the 60s/70s. He the person thsat shut down Meccano, Hornby Railways, and bankrupted Simon Dee and he done business with Robert Maxwell, framed photo of them shaking hands with e/o in my grandpa's old study. I am also inadvertently responsible for the creation of Dubstep music, long story. There is more stuff, but can't be bothered typing anymore out.
Haha, what tripe - you sentimental old duffer! There are some works of utter genius out there today too. Open your eyes and, God forbid, your mind a little!!
