We're still on a Two Ronnies vibe here following on from the show's fiftieth anniversary last month. So we'd like to know your thoughts on The Two Ronnies comedy sketch show. Were you a fan? Or did you turnover whenever the show came on? What did you like about The Two Ronnies? Did you watch Barker and Corbett's other TV work?
It was unmissable TV in out house when we were growing up, and a huge part of our Christmas Day festivities. I really liked those spoof serials, but as a child, Ronnie Corbett's monologues used to bore me (sorry Ronnie!) although I definitely like them now!
What did you think?
Even now I could happily sit and watch the Two Ronnies all day long. People might say the humour and the sketches, jokes and so on are quite dated, and while we know a lot of that wouldn't stand up very well today, a lot of their work is so cleverly written. And both Ronnies comic timing is totally on point. Ronnie Corbett and Ronnie Barker were huge names in entertainment back in the eighties especially so it was impossible not to watch other things they were in. Two comic geniuses - may they rest in peace.
