Blank. Lovely Liza Goddard....

Quite liked the Cagney and Lacey joke. The library music adds the energy that Sid can't quite manage.

"I think Jimmy Savile made a mistake letting you do this," hmmm.

I remember a Freddy Starr gag where he's a gangster going "You dirty rat!" and the camera pulls back to reveal him scrubbing a rat.

Nice one Eddie, sneaking Deputy Dog in at the end there!

Good God.

[Alberon]

Thanks for that.

Just off to bleach my eyes.

Having just spent the last few days singing "Lubba Club" to myself thanks to a different thread on here, now this clip has stirred a dormant memory in me. This song briefly was all rage at my school, except with corrupted lyrics to make it even ruder (same tune):

"My mummy won't be happy
When she sees what's in my nappy:
It's big and brown.
I can't sit down."

There was more, but that's all I can remember. Not an interesting anecdote, but the main takeaway from this is that we at primary school arguably had better writers than Little and Large.

They live there?

[non capisco]

Bang bang Eddie's actual hammer came down on Syd's head

[Glebe]

Move over the White Album!

More trangressive and alarming than any Whitehouse live action

:)

[millwall32]

Be fair, "Syd you were born during the midwives go-slow..." is a decent joke.

[Thosworth]

Good God.

Extraordinary scale of the scenery. Are they supposed to be baby Borrowers?

Here we go L&Lers..

Enjoy!

Unless I'm mistaken, Eddie is actually reminding him to wave at two seconds in.

Syd & Eddie doing one of their seminal classic routines here at approx 13 mins. You may recognise Maddi Cryer, who appears earlier, from her appearances on The L&L Show too:

[Fambo Number Mive]

Has this been posted before?

[Glebe]

It has but an L&L thread bump is always welcome!

Eddie seems like a nice bloke here.

[Glebe]

Brace yourselves for a treat - it's the long-awaited sequel to the epic that inspired the whole thread... the '81 Christmas special!:

Summary and highlights:

Spoiler alert

"How can any funny face..."

Eddie interrupts Syd's introduction with his Walkman, sings 'O Superman' and Toyah! Refers to Syd as 'Steak and Kiddly!'

Sketch with Eddie as John McEnroe and Syd turning into the Hulk!

Bucks Fizz spoof.

The lads as bizarre pandas with a giant Rubik's Cube.

Madness with 'It Must be Love'!

Eddie does David Bellamy.

Syd and Eddie as schoolkids doing a childish rhyme.

The Stutz Bear Cats (?).

Crap and slightly creepy schoolkids sketch.

Syd sings 'The Green Green Grass of Home' while Eddie interrupts with impressions of Popeye, Benny from Crossroads and Worzel among others. Eddie strangles Syd at one point.

Syd as Santa, POISONED BY EDDIE.

Lulu.

Bizarre sketch with the lads singing in nappies.

Syd attempts duet with Lulu but is foiled by Eddie as Adam Ant!

Syd and Eddie doing Stan & Ollie, arriving in their car like they previously did in a Seaside Special or summit and do the Way Out West dance.

The lads sign off.

[close]

As a bonus, Limmy reacts to the L&H sketch!:

[Gurke and Hare]

Madness with 'It Must be Love'!

I was on tenterhooks through this, fearful that Eddie was going to come on and spoil it.

The Stutz Bear Cats (?)

And through this, but praying for him to come on and spoil it.

This was duller than the previous one, shit in less interesting ways. Nice to see a pre-Les Dennis Mavis impression though.

As a bonus, Limmy reacts to the L&H sketch!:

limmy cutting himself off after instinctively launching himself into an explanation of who Starsky and Hutch were with a Ohhh ffffuck!... right at the beginning is the most ive laughed at one of his streams

starsky and hOH Ffffuck...

[Glebe]

I love Limmy's perplexed anger at this!

Of course this remains the pièce de résistance as regards Syd & Eddie's Stan & Ollie work!

Thinkin' about your chocolate, thinkin' about your taste, woah baby I'm...

[Replies From View]

Limmy watched the whole episode on his Twitch stream, not just that clip.  It's on YouTube as well.

Why are their faces painted grey?

[Alberon]

They're in black and white?

[jamiefairlie]

That's what northerners look like

A mixed bag from the charity shops. The 10p Syd Little CD is this trip's star find.
