The Fast Show - Arthur Atkinson Complete Part 9 

The Fast Show had so many moments of absolute genius, especially the parodies in the Arthur Atkinson sketches. Me and my generation will still be quoting The Fast Show lines when we're in a retirement home.

I watched all the Confession films when I was a lad, and I can confirm that this is perfect. And the lovely Donna Ewin too, magic.

I like the fast show as much as the next chap but I won't have it rammed down my throat.

The best thing the Confessions films did was make me see how good Carry On is.

Tommy Cockles' Golden Moments!! This clip is awesome. I won't have it rammed down my throat ROFL....

"I ain't tawkin' baht your cucumber!" I like crumpet.

Simon Day is a brilliant character actor, his mannerisms and facial expressions are hilarious.

Absolute quality you had to love the confessions of films,so bad they were brilliant

"Oooh, that looks warm and hairy!!" And as an added it bonus it's Donna Ewin on the doorstep. As Louis Balfour would say "Niice!"

Ooooh hello duckie it’s my lucky day

'Jeremy, go and get the best china. We've got a guest'.

'You keep away from me, you and your kind' - haha fucking hell.

The credits are the best part. Nice to see Geoffrey Perkins with a credit.

My favourite Fast Show sketch

Perfect spoof

We're now going to witness a debacle!

I saw “Confessions of a Window Cleaner”. It really was this stupid, you would not believe it. Didn’t stop me looking at the girls, though.

Bob Mortimer is one of the writers in the credits

This is just how those Robin Askwith films were!

At least Chester Drawers didn't have to appear in THIS one with Aerthur . . .

I can confirm the '70's were exactly like this...😅

Hello, TC here!

Ooo Arthur!

Brilliant! So well observed 👍😄

I always imagined they entered a front room and some old lady served them real crumpet with butter and jam.

Charlie Higson is so underrated in this sketch

That first man the hero talked to - do you suppose he may have been a quare?

Spot on. Amazing.

Arthur's greatest performance for mine

missing the fast show

Anyone else notice Dave Gorman of "Dave Gorman the guy who found people called Dave Gorman" fame?

Oh Arthur!

Love the music at the end. Made up for the sketch or from an actual 70s sex comedy?

But thank God somebody, in the shape of M. Thatcher, came along and saved us all!

Classic - love TC.

Love this!

Donna Ewin at 1:19.

I love crumpet😄

Cor blimey!! That is the best swear word ever! 😂😂

Hehe yeah! Me and my mate have been qouting that for years. Sadly neither of us can imitate that hilarious walk of John Thompson's quite so well as he does!

feelin really raaandy!! hahahaha

@AntiGravDisclosure I reckon he's channelling the hofmeister bear with that walk

The seventies , where dreams come true .

Percival Pooftah Jerry Shaggit Candy Crumpet Annie Knocker etc. Those names in the credits are just brilliant

A rare speaking role for the lovely Donna Ewin there.

SheS A LoVelY BiT Of CrumpeT Come On I LiKe CrumpeT... Yeah Let's Go And GeT Some CrumpeT.......

2:52 oooh arthur! LOL

Jerry Shaggit & Stuffer. Those credits are actually better than anything Little Britain or Kevin Bishop or any of that shite could ever hope to do

CAST OFF CHARACTERS Nobby Arthur Atkinson Gladys Atkinson Percival Pooftah Jerry Shaggit “Stuffer” Dame Doris Sidebottom Candy Crumpet Annie Knocker Mimi Lovebutton Shirley Angel Young Man with the Horn Photographer Man at the Council Mr. Dinkum 1st Musician 2nd Musician Morris Dancers **************** “Morris Dancers”? Did I miss something? Like how the credits go on and on with obscure titles ( “assistant floor manager”? “Studio resources manager “? And two of them?) And 17 people with writing credit. All these padded credits for a film that looks like it took about two hours to make on a fifty pound production budget. Funny stuff.

Ooh, suit you sir. Suit you.

Hello, ducky

Incredibly, after this parody, someone actually went and made 'Sex Lives Of The Potato Men'.

What? Why aren't the geezers wearing flares? 1973 and all that.

I didn't know Dave Gorman wrote for the fast show.

I like crumpet.

Percival Pooftah in the credits :)

Fucking Classic clip!! I love it!!

The LoVelY Donna EWin.....

genius

Tommy cockles legend, fine actor (3rd nazi in behind enemy lines) and encyclopedia of Old era entertainment. (Don't play cards with his wife though)

Quality

Morris dancers in the titles 😀

@DMEB quality!! Phwooooaaaarr!!

‘I bet you could you randy git’

1.27 - 1.37 class

Absolute genius reconstruction of those tacky 70s so called Comedies... Brilliant

Confessions of series Danish Blue The innocence of the 70s Brut Splash it on

@2:20 the likely lads ^^

Arthur donated a lot of money to the Vote Leave Campaign.

Arthur Atkins is a parody of Arthur Askey..a well known British comedian of the 1940's.

This is one of the dampest things I’ve ever seen

@Alex Horn @Greg Devies

0:57 1:41 Lol

Simon Day brillant 😂

@taskmaster

Brilliant parody of the Carry On films. 0:58 1:33 1:41 2:05 LOL I like the closing credits.

About as funny as a wet lettuce

👎🏻
