@GeorgeMCMLIX Why not? What about this sketch would you consider "of its time"? It's just people shouting ARSE and coughing, sneezing, hiccoughing etc. Funny, but hardly unique or the "best".
Ha haaaa! My dad had a bad cough which carried on for ages. It was starting to irritate my mum (she's not the most sympathetic when it comes to this sort of stuff!!) My dads name is Rob but everyone calls him Bob, so of course, she started calling him Bob Fleming!!!!
They have a lot to answer for - I gave away my Steeleye Span LP after that particular Fast Show! But I'm still looking for records of The Farmer and the Rabbit, Twankydillo, The Parson with the Wooden Leg, The Brisk Young Butcher and You Ain't Seen me, Right?
True enough, as it was reinforced by Peter Cook and the individual Goons, followed by Monty Python, then that by Fry and Laurie, Rowan Atkinson, etc. I think it's fading now, though.
NYE 23. Laughing my head off with first daughter. Second daughter is a bit captured, she says "Are you laughing at people with Tourette's Syndrome?" and makes a disapproving face. Oh well!
I have a neighbour who hangs out of his bedroom window at least 4 times a day smoking weed and coughs as bad as, if not worse, as Bob Fleming. Sadly though the neighbour isn’t as entertaining. 🤦🏼♀️
To this day if I hear 'All Around my Hat' it is obligatory to shout ARSE! And it will never not be funny.
_ARSE! _*_HORSE ARSE!_*
I never knew hat was the actual lyric 😂
I'm the same with The Wild Rover. It's just not the same without shouting ARSE!
@@antster1983 I love it when the comments section is as funny as the sketch! I love you guys! 🤡🇬🇧 ARSE!
Not just me then
folking, FOLK singers ! (cough} ARSE !
I'm sorry, can't watch this without crying out laughing.
Even after soooooooo many times.
Probable the best Sketch Show ever on the BBC.
And for bonus points, in the song list at the end is "You Ain't Seen Me, Right?"
LOL 😆
Lol I never noticed that
And I thought my sense of humour had grown, matured and become more sophisticated.
Now sitting here, creased up.
Arse......
Feb 2023 and its still funny ARSE!!
Wurzels spring to mind 😂
I still remember watching this sketch on the tv when i was a kid. Nearly died laughing!
Me too. I laughed so much everything went grey. I was genuinely worried.
1:58 Simon Day's expression gets me every time, looking as if he's trying to keep it together without bursting out laughing.
Paul Whitehouse is such a legend
And it’s no, neigh, never
AACHOO, HIC, ARSE!
Brilliant
If I keep watching this, I will have to be taken to hospital through stomach cramps, funniest Fast Show sketch ever 😂😂😂😂😂
Can't stop laughing at all around my arse 😂
ARSE !! , of the 90's most frequent utterings , thanks to this masterpiece , and equally brilliant , Father Jack Hackett / Father Ted.
Feck
Whom else would actually buy this if it was real? I reallllly want it!!!!
Laying in bed with f**kin COVID & by God this made me laugh!!!!! Thank you!!
My daughter goes crazy and obsessed with the word Arse
Still just as hilarious today as it was the first time around. Sheer brilliance.......... ARSE!!!
Honest to God, Bob's coughing makes ME cough. It's like how they say smiles are contagious.
Folkin' classics!
I nearly died in laughter watching this as after covid I also cough my head of bit more of a reality now 😔
Still find this funny all these years later😂😂😂😂😂
Christmas number one lol
Feel sorry for the 3 people who put thumbs down 👎
A time when bbc comedy was the best, alas, that was a very, very long time ago.
Yeah it's been a while.
@@fordprefect80- …….& probably never will be again! 🙄
@GeorgeMCMLIX Why not? What about this sketch would you consider "of its time"? It's just people shouting ARSE and coughing, sneezing, hiccoughing etc. Funny, but hardly unique or the "best".
My husband has just had an awful cough. I had to say " arse" after every outburst.
Ha haaaa! My dad had a bad cough which carried on for ages. It was starting to irritate my mum (she's not the most sympathetic when it comes to this sort of stuff!!) My dads name is Rob but everyone calls him Bob, so of course, she started calling him Bob Fleming!!!!
I could do the Bob Fleming role at moment
One of the more rememorable Paul Whitehouse performances. I think about it all the time 😂
Brilliant show. Bob Fleming's coughing creases me every time.
Bob Phlegming
Paul Whitehouse's Ewan MacColl impression is fantastic!
You cut off the bit where Bob (oblivious to the rest of them) cheerily says ‘thats got it!’
would deffo buy the cd.
Just brilliant,beats todays crap.hands down
This has me in stitches every time 😂😂😂
Oh God, please do not do this to a 60 year old woman whose pelvic floor is not as robust as it used to be! 😂😂😂
And it's no, nay, never! Achoo!! Hick! Arse!!
Always do that now whenever i hear the wild rover 😂
The Fast Show, only Father Ted equals it for me for pure comedy genius.
Froggy went courting is the best bit...lol
"Will you stop that coughing,". .... Arrrrsse
This is so forking f'' oorrkkk funny
I wish they'd actually ARSE!!! release this album
OMG i am addicted to this so so so funny 😅😅😅😅😅😅😅
I doubt anything will come close for pure laugh out loud comedy gold in my lifetime
I still remember seeing this for the first time and just laughing all the way through, it's perfect.
Hahahaha "you ain't seen me, right?" 🤣🤣🤣
Imagine watching this again for the first time. Take me back!
NOV 21 and I've got tears of laughter running down my face... 🤣🤣 This will never not be funny 🤣🤣
It is now June 2022 and I’m running out of incontinence pants! Every fecking time!
Know what you mean I miss the black and white minstrels.
I have not laughed this hard in a long time! I'm an American!
One of my favourite Fast Show sketches.
I remember watching this on the BBC when i was younger
Probably the funniest sketch of all time. What a show, what talented folks
Brit comedy at its finest 🤣🤣🤣
Bob fleming.dave angel just two of the mad characters from this top notch comedy😂❤😂😂
How they kept going I'll never know...must have taken dozens of takes.
That rainbows got a whole different meaning now 😬
Absolutely pissing myself laughing , " ARSE "
BRILLIANT! 😆
Man I nearly choked on my
Arse arse wine.
Folk ‘n classics 😂😂😂
They created so many characters, brilliant, Arse..!
My favourite Fast Show sketch ever!
My dad hated it when I was young
You obviously had a good time
“That’s got it” 😂
Beige overload.
I slot ARSE into many a different song... old or modern.. Just can't help it..
The 12" Remix is even better..🤔
They have a lot to answer for - I gave away my Steeleye Span LP after that particular Fast Show! But I'm still looking for records of The Farmer and the Rabbit, Twankydillo, The Parson with the Wooden Leg, The Brisk Young Butcher and You Ain't Seen me, Right?
Simon day so funny in this
I believe that none of the modern comedy would have developed without The Goons.
If heaven existed, it would be a place where you could watch the Fast Show with the Goons.
True enough, as it was reinforced by Peter Cook and the individual Goons, followed by Monty Python, then that by Fry and Laurie, Rowan Atkinson, etc. I think it's fading now, though.
0:46 FATALITY!!!
Bonkers 😆
Where COVID really started
never gets old .. :)
NYE 23. Laughing my head off with first daughter. Second daughter is a bit captured, she says "Are you laughing at people with Tourette's Syndrome?" and makes a disapproving face. Oh well!
Oh, lord. That set me off LOL.
Genius
Fantastic characters played by super actors with a natural talent for comedy, the scene was so good back then with less restrictions
🤣 that got it 😂
Wonderful 😅
Sublime
Sung by some of your favourite huuuuaghaaaaa 😂😂
What's the song at 0:50? Something about pie o and tea o??
Brilliant

Murtagh Blethyn 🤣👍🤣

True comedy
Bob went on to manage Spurs
Where could Clive Tucker go? Fuckin genius
Lmfao😂
I'd buy that CD, if it existed?
Laugh, I nearly fell off my rhubarb....that reminds me....
Classic 😂😂😂
ARSE!!
It’s just a seasonal sniffle honestly.
I now know when my Dad pretends to have Tourettes, what he is referencing.
I have a neighbour who hangs out of his bedroom window at least 4 times a day smoking weed and coughs as bad as, if not worse, as Bob Fleming.
Sadly though the neighbour isn’t as entertaining. 🤦🏼♀️
😆 🤣 😂 😹
