- Synopsis:
The classic BBC Comedy series starring Ronnie Barker and Ronnie Corbett. Ronnie Barker and Ronnie Corbett were comedy team whose talents complemented each other perfectly in a series that would run for 16 years and become part of British television history. From their introduction, "And in a packed programme tonight..." to the "Goodnight from him", viewers would savour the familiar features -the news items, party and doctor sketches, Ronnie Barker's word-play speeches and the rambling monologues from Ronnie Corbett. This seventh series was broadcast between December 1978 and February 1979 and contains eight episodes of the usual hilarious fare. They boast extended sketches of Sid and Lily, George and Edie; Ronnie Barker speaking on behalf of "The Society for the Shy and Embarrassed"; Ronnie Corbett in "The Last Mango in Paris" as well as the famous "Argentinian Racing Pigeon" sketch. Musical numbers included 'The North Acton Ladies Slimnastic Club' and 'The Kamikaze Theatre Company' with The Manhattan Transfer as this series' regular guests. - Actors:
