  • Let's cut to the chase: who in their right mind would have imagined that Les Dawson and Jim Carrey ever shared stage and screen time? And yet, as the credits roll, there the two worlds do indeed collide. Unfortunately, Jim's main bit wasn't on the tape, but the trademark eloquence and musical stylings of Les very much were. He's just back from a health scare and starts in an obviously mischievous mood, then he and Bob riff on Cissie and Ada and Cosmo Smallpiece, before we finally get what we all came for: the piano. Enough said.
    I think the original broadcast date was Monday, 27th January, 1986, but I'm willing to be corrected on that.

      I would say we have so many amazing entertainers like this today - Jim Howick, John Finnemore, Kerry Godliman, Milton Jones, Katie Wix, Miles Jupp, Margaret Caborn-Smith, Miranda Hart, Stuart Francis, Kathy Burke, Ben Willbond, Daliso Chaponda, Jo Caulfield, Rowan Atkinson, Lolly Adefope, Bob Mortimer, Sue Perkins, Carrie Quinlan, Steve Pemberton, Reese Shearsmith, Martha Howe-Douglas, Matt Lucas, Matt Baynton, Simon Farnaby, Roisin Conaty, Bill Bailey, Greg Davies, Rob Brydon, Sara Pascoe, Michael Sheen, Sophie Duker, Alex Horne, Ellie Taylor, Lee Mack, Tim Vine, Chris Barrie, Peter Kay, Lucy Porter. There are many many more I'm sure, but these are just a few who talk, and banter, and play roles, and do silly routines. Don't get me wrong, I love Monkhouse, Dawson and their era - but I think we have comedians and light entertainers of equal quality and talent writing and performing today. And often corralled and herded by Graham Norton.

      Yes ditto indeed, two great masters! When comedians were funny, I'm 67 now we didn't know how good we had it in those great years.

    I thought it was really funny about the meal that les mention about the fartridge and dont think bob found it funny. Les is the greatest comedian there is. Bob is a lovely man.

    Les Dawson was beneath Monkhouse. A painful watch.

      I'll be honest, I was expecting someone to say the precise opposite.

      Les Dawson was a genius. Way more talented than Monkhouse.

      Monkhouse was highly intelligent, a superb artist but highly annoying.

      No. Both Les Dawson and Bob Monkhouse were supreme at their craft.
      Both of them were National Treasures and are very much missed.
