Only The Funny Bits

[teacake44]

What film, comedy show, sketch, whatever, has made you roll about in laughter and stuck in you're mind, and can still laugh at it whenever you see it.
One that sticks with me is the 1969 film (KES) when ( Brian Glover) was bullying the kids in a football class / game and making all the rules in his favor.

This thread don't really warrant a best answer, but this one made me titter. Was never a big fan of Morecambe and Wise but did watch off and on, you had to be quick sometimes to catch their gags, so must have missed this one many moons ago. Scroll to elliemay @ 15.52 on Friday.

Why do you think it doesn't warrant a BA teacake ?

[teacake44]

Are you bored? may be because they are all funny, so I just picked the one that I hadn't seen or heard.

[burlyshirley]

Why would you ask me if I'm bored? Just asking a simple question.

[teacake44]

Just gave you a simple answer.

[burlyshirley]

No you didn't you were rude, but that's par for the course with you anyway.

Many a scene from John Cleese's Fawlty Towers...the brilliant thing being that they stopped themselves after 13 episodes, JC not believing they could sustain the comedy level going forward. "Know when to quit!"

Who can ever forget Manuel and the rat, the Gourmet evening, the Germans - and brilliant casting of all the characters.

The amazing thing was that the series only came to light when someone from Aunty Beeb saw the first reels as originally it was one of JC's training films, targeted at Thrust-House-Thrifty apparently....JC later selling his commercial training film company and raking in £17 mil to pay his wives off....

Its pretty obvious that out of 60+ good funny sketches it would be near on impossible to pick what would be a classed as the best, well to most. Again I highlighted that one because as stated I'd not seen or heard of it, and may be thought others may not have seen it. If you think I'm rude tuff.

Talking of Mr Bean, one of my daughter's favourites (the Holiday) though her fav. is the original Johnny English

Too many to mention, but Fawlty Towers has to be one of the top belly laughs. Also Stir Crazy, was one of the funniest comedy films I've seen.

"after 13 episodes"

12 episodes

This one made me laugh out loud...

Didn't see any mention of The Two Ronnies in those replies. Maybe I missed it. However, Bernard manning was the funniest comedian bar none, then Ken Dodd. Blackadder Goes Forth was really funny, especially the court martial over the killing of a messenger pigeon.
