The Two Ronnies takes me back to my childhood in Scotland.

Used to love Ronnie Barker's linguistic orientated sketches like the Swedish class...

He wrote anonymously for the show under an assumed name...

"Most famously, many contributions for The Two Ronnies were submitted by a mystery writer called Gerald Wiley. Wiley had first gained credit for his work on the Frost on Sunday show, but no one had ever met him. His status as a recluse became well known among the comedy writing fraternity, to the extent that it became almost a challenge to discover his identity. Frank Muir (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frank_Muir) and Tom Stoppard (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tom_Stoppard) were both accused by members of the writing team, including Barry Cryer (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barry_Cryer), before one day, Wiley said that he would reveal himself at a Chinese restaurant. No one believed Barker at first, when he stood up and announced it was him, particularly as he himself had turned away scripts credited to Wiley. Barker admitted that he carried out this deception because he was afraid that his ideas and scripts would not be judged on merit otherwise."

Those guys are tops aren't they ! I have a whole stack of (mainly pommie) comedy dvds that I just watch thru again and again.

Another gifted comedian who may have escaped peoples' attention is a great old favourite of mine - Ken Dodd. Some of his TV stuff was a bit daft, but he could be very funny live on stage. Take a look at this segment .....
