Oh, I love Basil.
He was a brilliant actor♥️
Rest in peace🕊🙏🏻
The best thing about this skit is that you can see the classically-trained Rathbone holding his own in a fast-paced vaudeville sketch; that, and you can also see he's genuinely enjoying himself!
To prawda. Basil Rathbone to był prawdziwy, wykształcony, teatralny aktor.
Awesome. I love Rathbone. He must have had an awesome sense of humor. Wish I had met him in person just to shake his hand.
🥺🤝🏼
When one thinks of Basil Rathbone, humor/comedy isn't the first (or twentieth) thing that comes to mind. A classic bit. Nice to see him in this format.
Funny sketch!And Basil Rathbone and Arnold Stang were GREAT!
The great Basil Rathbone hamming it up with Berle.
I love it.
How awesome to see Basil Rathbone hamming it up, I'm so glad I found this video. Many thanks for putting it up.
Basil Rathbone co-stared with Errol Flynn in several swashbucklers. He was an expert swordsman. He said that, in their swordplay, he could have killed Errol Flynn several times over.
I think in their dueling Flynn actually cut Rathbone and left a scar once
He was also a much better person than Flynn
Without fail, my family watched Berle every Tuesday night.; as did most of the people who owned a television set. Arnold Stang remains one of my favorite second bananas. A truly endearing man who, I believe lived to be 91 years old and married to the same woman for 70 years!
My dad bought a TV in 1948, every Tuesday evening at 8:00 pm our living room was packed, with people who did not have a TV yet just to watch Milton Berle
American humor with Basil Rathbone!!!😂😉 "I've got one more line. Will you let me finish?!"😂😂😂😂 "Now, Bathroom ah Rathbone!"😂😂😂😂
I love basil rathbone 😍😍😍❤️❤️❤️

Everyone watch Comedy of Terrors with Basil Rathbone and Vincent Price.Amazing film.
Those live comedy variety shows were FUN!😂If you blew a line,so what?It made it all the more funny!😂
2 Legends Berle And Rathbornr

Basil Rathbone from Zorro movie with Tyrone Powers...& Hound of the Baskervilles...1952...before me by 8 years
Such class acting. Such great actors from a different time, alas...
This was beautiful! And Basil Rathbone was amazing!
Have you seen , The Comedy of Terrors? Basel Rathbone was brilliant in that film
Indeed I have, and I loved it! Yes Rathbone was beautiful in it, along with Vincent Price.
Goodnight, Irene! Brilliant
Leadbelly reference...though, most likely via The Weavers.
I wonder if Basil Rathbone would have liked to have been on "The Muppet Show" like Milton Berle?
Classic Movie Lover oh I bet he would have had the time of his life.
Berle was packing the beef in the slacks
8:05 Does he actually call Rathbone "Bathroom"? Looks like it wasn't planned--they both absolutely cracked up over it.
Yeah, he called him "Bathroom"😅😅😅
@@EPilz hahahahahahahaha.Watch Comedy of terrors film from 1963 with Basil Rathbone.He is splendid in this film.
That was the fun of live TV.
To be fair Rathbone does sound a lot like bathroom
"Farewell Liverpool."
jbailor13 Bang!! Hilarious!!!😂😂
Farewell Liverpool! :D HAHAHAHA! I love it.
Milton was 5' 10". Basil was 6' 2". An imposing figure
At the end of the sketch, that's Sammy Petrillo in the drag outfit. His brief career started out by imitating Jerry Lewis, until Lewis got wind of it.
I love this! Thanks so much for posting!
Lower the boom, lower the boom!
Hilarious! 😂
they don't make 'em funny like this anymore. No foul language necessary.
This is fab...
ARNOLD STANG AKA THE VOICE OF TOP CAT.
"Stang" of course being the past tense of "Sting" - unless you are from Texas (Doctor to patient: "that's gonna stang, boy.")
When gold meets ham.
As it happens he was from .Liverpool, his family were bakers, Ever heard of Rathbone Bread , his sister Ethel was an early Social worker, she helped many people in Liverpool's Merseyside Englane UK.
I have lived nearby in St Helens for 70 years and never knew this . Thanks!.
Basil's grandfather, William Rathbone VI, was a prominent Liverpool merchant, philanthropist and member of Parliament
No, he was fron South Africa.
Nobody -------- i say again "NOBODY" today could do what the comics back then could do !!!
🤣🤣😂😂
Utterly corny and totally hilarious.
🤣 West Undies 🤣
does anyone know who's the actor at 2:11.
was this the milton berle show or texaco star theatre?
Arnold Stang.
I can't understand what Basil says at 6:51, if someone could tell me.
Thank you.
Seo hyeon I laugh every time they mess up!!!😂😂

You cant make me the ship's cook.
I dont know to cook a ship. Hahaha
What a superelegant Aryan man
9:35 is that jerry lewis with Milton Berle?
Sammy Petrillo.
John Denver[ I Want to Live.
Load tve boom haha
Hilarious skit, was that Jerry Lewis in drag?
You forgot Jerry Lewis at the end dressed as the woman.
SHOFAR MINISTRIES Milton Berle was friends with Jerry Lewis' parents- Vaudvillians- Milton baby sat Jerry while his parents toured!
SHOFAR MINISTRIES That wasn't Jerry that was imitator Sammy Petrillo of "Bela Lugosi Meets A Brooklyn Gorilla".
Will Smith[ Bllm, Boom, shake the room.
9:33 Is that Jerry Lewis?
A Jerry Lewis copy-cat named Sammy Petrillo.
cleary too tall to be Lewis
What a shame to see actors in the fall as B. Rathbone for example.
sorry, but this is as funny as piles. I'm surprised rathbone agreed to do it.
It just proves that Basil Rathbone had a good sense of humor. also, he was in a comedy movie "Comedy of Terrors" in 1963
Unfortunately Mr Rathbone needed money great shame
American comedy is certainly poor I feel sorry for Basil Rathbone that he was in such rubbish
and British comedy is better? lol Get real, this was a comedic upgrade from what Rathbone could get in England - and his locale beats any in the Commonweath to boot.
