Kenneth Williams in wonderful initable form. Marvellous...
The King of JAM Kenneth Williams, Peter Jones, Clement Freud and Dereck Nimmo.....try and assemble a quartet like that today!!!
Hilarity at its best.
These episodes are riots compared to the very bland fare offered by Sue Perkins these days.
One aspect is the polarized approach to the rules in these earlier series. Either they let things go completely and let the person ramble on, sometimes to very funny effect, or they chase up the slightest thing often leading to a Kenneth Williams diatribe or a withering grumble from Clement Freud. In today's JAM they play it more seriously and a lot of the humour has been lost.
agreed, plus nowadays it's clear that the programme's chairperson seems to want to be the star of the show, which NP never tried to be.
@@RockinRedRover She does and he does. They are cut from the same cloth. I watch very little of the new episodes and more or less stopped when Merton took the programme over and clearly and intriguingly allowed to which appeared to be backed up by Parsons.
@@Omnicient. You say " She does and he does" - sorry, not sure what you're trying to say, who do you mean by "he" ?.
@@Omnicient. Re Merton, I didnt realise until started listening to these old shows, that Merton's style is very much a copy of the greats of yesteryear, but without the originality of course.
I listened to Sue Perkins as a contestant before she became chair & she's just not a funny person, far too big an ego
Kenneth Williams, in his diaries, mentions an episode after which they all agreed, it had 'got out of hand.' I wonder if that episode is in this batch... the 'wretch' episode's pretty 'tasty...'
I see Clement was more than usually unkindly disposed toward Nicholas during Episode 7 with the rest of the gang of four only too happy to join in-Also as Peter Wisely pointed out, Derek's performance with the bag of snow is somewhat lost on the radio audience.
If Parsons wouldn't be so quick to alter and invent rules it might help.
2:40:40 As usual Parsons is entirely wrong. The juniper berries are indeed for flavouring only.
The show was better when the guests weren't just the latest fops and fads.
