    Jesus H Christ, didn’t know that Boris Johnson modelled himself on the bold Sir Arthur. Both raised by goats, but Sir Arthur makes much more sense.

    Peter Cook makes an error when talking about the Giraffe. As the Romans actually did import african animals to various parts of the Empire, including the Girraffe. They were considered to be harmless creatures, that were peaceful ; roman crowds were appalled when the emperor Commodus slaughtered one in the Colosseum. There is a likelihood that the Picts of what was then Northern Britannia, would have in fact, seen a giraffe. There is a very high likelihood that they would have sighted a ladder too, as the Romans certainly had them, and would have made use of them with those walls they constructed in Northern England. In fact, given the Pictish artworks they have left behind on alingated rocks, it is likely they had ladders of their own.

    • @adoreslaurel
      @adoreslaurel 6 лет назад

      Emperor Commodus? fancy doing such a terrible thing, maybe they decided to use his name for a crock of shit.

    • @petermorningsnow
      @petermorningsnow 6 лет назад

      What a beautiful post! I disagree with you on the Picts, but it is good to hear you speak truth to the 12 disciples, is how it's spelt. Keep up the good work.

    • @RodCorkin

      But the Greebling tribe was subterranean so they would not have aware of anything the Romans were doing.

      Apart from ladders, building walls and importing African animals. what have the Romans ever done for us?

    good god, yet another year in the crapper...always fine to open the last month with this dainty Cook holiday classic. just a smattering, uh, smüttering of comic genius to make the season palatable.

    have been listening to bbc's desert island discs recently. listened to commander sir stephen king-hall from a 1961 recording. he sounds just like streeb greebling! clearly an inspiration for cook. quite uncanny

    @ColtraneTaylor 13 лет назад

    @JeffersonToblerone You think a witty person is a great mind. That is your foolishness talking and you're the arrogant one in telling people your idol (quite literally) has no comparison. So Cook now is more brilliant than all the philosophers we've seen. Fack off ya cant.

  • @ColtraneTaylor

    @evolegnartsrd Cook is really funny but Fry's opinion really doesn't matter.

  • @ColtraneTaylor
    @ColtraneTaylor 13 лет назад

    @lil902 His comedy was not "too high brow" but it was irreverent and funny. I don't consider him a very intelligent person but compared to many idiots out there, yes he was but that's not saying much.

    The days of the comic genius(Peter Cook, Monty Python) etc are alas sadley over. All we have to look forward to today is the likes of Graham Norton whos only comic brilliance is to say "fuck and cock" ect..

  • @dirtyflute
    @dirtyflute 17 лет назад

    The reason Ludovic's timing is so spot on is that he was cut in afterwards. He wasn't actually present when Sir Arthur was being recorded.

  • @thurstons
    @thurstons 17 лет назад

    Sir Ludovic Kennedy (still going strong at the age of 87) is brilliant here, in many ways better in this sketch than even Peter himself. Watch for a second time. His timing is exquisite.
