The Two Ronnies Present - By The Sea

My wife surprised me today and bought me a film, it's called By The Sea which includes another one called The Picnic. It's in the style of The Plank. I must say Ronnie Barker is absolutely hilarious in this, as is Ronnie Corbett. Two of my absolute favourite people in comedy.

If you want to warm up, watch this. I guarantee you'll love it. :D :D :D

I think you will probably enjoy Futtock's End & A Home of Your Own as well Nigel. Ronnie Barker sans Corbett!

I have got this on DVD as its included in The Two Ronnies Complete Collection Box set as exclusive bonus material. I think it is excellent just like all their work.

Thanks for that. Hopefully these will be in my DVD collection this time tomorrow night. I can't seem to get enough of The Two Ronnies lately. I have been looking at a few autographed Ronnie Barker/Ronnie Corbett pics on eBay which are probably prints but will still be a nice addition to my collection.
:D :D

I acquired Futtocks End today and I hope A Home Of Your Own isn't too far behind. :D

Has anyone seen Clarence? Gonna get this at weekend and give it a roll. Seen clips on YouTube. Looks great! :D

Yes. It's a fun, enjoyable show, but not quite a lost or underrated classic. I'm sure there's a thread for it somewhere if you look.

You really need to check out Hark at Barker/ Six Dates with Barker as well Nigel - both available on DVD.

I thank you both very much. I'm on a Barker/Corbett Buzz at the moment. :D
