What is so very very sad is that a lot of those “celebs” in the vid are no longer with us 😨😰😰 it made Comic Relief a helluva lot of cash and gave Tony Christie a new fan base (he was such a good sport 👍🏻😃) Would love to see Peter Kay back on the tellybox or doing “something” - he is just such a naturally funny person - without having to try very hard - he just IS funny ….although I have seen that video a million times, it never fails to make me smile - and Little Ron, falling off the running machine WAS an accident, not scripted! Hence Michael Parkinson turning around looking as if to say “what the heck you doing down there?” So, of course, it had to be kept in and the first time the clip was shown on tv on CR we ALL laughed at poor old Ronnie Corbett hitting the deck! 😂😂
So many well known U.K. celebs there. So many of them gone now. Poor Ronnie C really hurt himself when he took that tumble - apparently he ripped a hole in his leg and bled badly. It took ages to heal. The story I heard was the Peter Kay phoned up Ronnie C to make sure he was ok and Ronnie C insisted they keep that bit in because he knew it would get a laugh.
Peter Kay organised a few of these celebrity musical numbers for charity telethons. My favourite was his Animated All Stars video. He played an animated character called Big Chris for a kids TV show so he did a video where Big Chris organised a sing-a-long with other animated kids TV characters from shows going back for decades. It was brilliant. He even got Ringo Star to voice Thomas The Tank Engine, which he hadn’t done since the 80s. It took years to put together mainly because of negotiating the legal rights for all these shows, which is a task that Kay really got stuck into. I heartily recommend it, although many of the TV characters are very British and may be unfamiliar to you.
In Glasgow they would dance, The Slosh, to that song,
you can look it up or wait for Jack and Victor to show you
Peter used to play Amarillo before his comedy gigs to help warm the crowd up. Then he featured it in Phoenix Nights in a scene with Max and Paddy singing along as they drive a mini-bus full of bewildered pensioners from the Indian/Asian community. That's singer Tony Christie who appears in the same suit as Kay.
Asian elders mini bus.
Tony Christie was a big deal when I was a kid in the early 70s. A local lad made good. Went to see him a few rimes with my parents in The Wakefield Theatre Club and The Batley Variety Club. He even did the theme tune to a Gerry Anderson TV show with Robert Vaughan with a song called In The Avenues and Alleyways - a song I still love. He still had a great voice when he came back for this remake.
😆 😆 😆....FUNNY loved when Brian May and Roger Taylor popped in! Like I've said before QUEEN FOREVER 👑 RIP Freddie Mercury 11/24/1991 ❤🌹
Love this, it brings back memories, sadly some British stars have passed since it’s making, ❤️
The two actors at the start of the clip were veteran actors who have been on “Coronation Street” for decades. William Roache has been in it ever since the first episode in 1960, and is still going strong aged 90.
His son was in Law and Order as a DA.
I love this song. This was a charity version, Peter Kay miming to a 1970s Tony Christie hit. Tony Christie is the other one in the purple suit. Ronnie Corbett falling over was not scripted.
Needless to say, all the people are (or were) famous actors, entertainers and TV personalities. The green duck (Keith Harris & Orville) and the ostrich (Bernie Clifton) were both very popular characters in the 1980s.
For the uninitiated - Tony Christie is a popular English power singer, here, from the school of Tom Jones - contemporaries from the same mold, as it were, but, for some reason, without the success. The song was written and released by Neil Sedaka, whose version paled into insignificance cf, Tony's very popular version in the UK - IIRC, it was released around 50 years ago.
It was revived by Peter in a way - he would encourage an audience singalong of it as part of his warm-up, which led to this charitable release and music video, raising funds for comic relief, as part of their regular, to this day, telethons. You could hardly go anywhere, it seemed, without hearing this at the time. It was number 1 for about TWO months in the charts.
Raised a lot of money for Children in Need . Most of the people from British tv shows you might not recognise but to see Brian May and Roger Taylor must have raised your spirits. Ronnie Corbett commented later that he fell off the conveyer belt! 👍😂🐿🏴
Fantastic to see my child hood hero's with Peter. He has done another children on need music video with the little Britain. Look up. I will walk 500 miles
The man at 2:11 (opposite Mr Blobby) is the veteran comedian Jim Bowen. In the 1980s he hosted a long-running game show called “Bullseye”. Interesting historical fact: serial killer John Cooper was a contestant on the show. Footage from the episode in which he appeared was vital evidence in proving what his appearance and hairstyle looked like at the time of the murders, and was a key part of the evidence which led to his convictions for 4 murders. They had to trawl through videotapes of hundreds of episodes in the archives of Yorkshire Television in order to find it.
I wonder how many criminals
appeared on game shows and if we can see them.
Obviously Charles Ingram became a criminal on WWTBAM, but this Bullseye fact is new to me.
@@rwlynch3468 they broadcast a drama about this case last year on ITV, starring Luke Evans (of The Hobbit and Beauty and the Best fame) as the lead police officer and Keith Allen as John Cooper. It might be of interest if it's on the ITV Hub/Britbox or repeated at some point. I believe it was called The Pembrokeshire Murders.
Don't slate Mr Blobby love him
That song was such a hit (it was for charity hence so many celebrities) even people of different proffessions sung and did the walk. I think one was done on the army base and one in one of the hospitals.
I wish you had seen the NHS version of it.
The original video contained Jimmy Saville.
You need to check out Peter Kay's version of 500 miles with the proclaimers, that really is a who's who of British 80s and 90s entertainers
It’s on this channel or the main channel but I have done that. Was pretty cool
I think this was a charity record for one of the annual Telethons over here in the UK (maybe Children In Need?) Not many of those celebs I didn't recognise so they're mainly all pretty well known
Anne Kirkbride & William Rachel (Ken & Deidre Barlow of soap Coronation Street)
Bernie Clifton with Oswald & Keith Harris with Orville
Max & Paddy (Mcguinness)(Phoenix Nights)
?, Tony Christie & Peter May
[back alley behind Coronation Street's Terrace (Rowhouses)] ???&?

Peter Kay was always a good sport for Comic Relief and this was another one of his songs Think you have done The Proclaimers one with Andy from Little Britain and Brian from Phoenix Nights.
Peter is my number one comedian and I’ve always loved this .They we’re all tv celebrities and yes Tony Casey I also saw Tony many times at The Wakefield Theatre Club and Batley Variety Club I saw many top artists in those places but I must be a bit older than you I didn’t need my parents with me . It’s a shame that they are no longer around but these two places bring back wonderful memories Great Reaction Love from Denise in Yorkshire England 🏴🤣🤣😂😂😂👍💞💞
Love me some Peter as well, talented guy. Appreciate The support, Thank you Denise
Not the unedited version. That one featured he who shall not be seen ever again ion British tv, unless it’s a documentary about him... Saville
I LIKE PETER KAY..THANK YOU MY FRIEND
Nice one, so many great stars in this.
Ah. This is the fixed version. Got very confused for a while.
Still game reviews are your king my friend
I must admit I'd forgotten how many UK entertainers were in this video when I recommended it Mr Squirrel. I remembered Ronnie C and his tumble of course, Michael Parkinson who you'd have seen in Kenny Everett sketches with 'Cupid Stunt', Mr Blobby (!) and Queen. Many others though would be a complete mystery to you!
Good memories lol🍻🍻🍻🍻
That was amazing I luv Peter Kay that was The Who’s who in there world of comedy great 😊♥️✌🏼🐿
Iirc this was a charity single for comic relief.
The best version of this is the one where British forces in Afghan did a version of the video but I can't remember what it's called
Just put British Army Amarillo in the RUclips search thingy and it comes up
@@Westcountrynordic thanks, found it, enjoyed it all over again😎🏹🙏
I see Jimmy Savile has been removed from the original video.
Wasn’t this written by neil Sedaka when he was living in the UK in the seventies
I hated this at the time, it was so overplayed back then, but I loved it here 🤘🇬🇧🤘
Can’t believe you know who Ronnie and Mr Blobby are..!
I did the blob by song on this Chanel
And on my main channel Hey Look Squirrel I have what I’d guess is the largest (or one of anyhow) collections of two Ronnie’s reactions there.
If you'd like the opposite of this try Sting's song ''What Have We Got?'' Real working class men. Or another updated version of an old song - Disturbed doing ''Sound of Silence''. Perhaps play the old and new 'Silence' back to back with the original to show the different world we're living in now.
From 2005 i think. Ronnie corbett fell for real too lol..
👏👏👏❤️❤️
Looks like the version with the pervert Jimmy Saville removed from it...but don't you dare put little Ronnie's tumble at the end in slow motion...
this video spawned a host of non celebrity copy cats including hospital staff firemen policemen etc one of the funniest was British troops in a firebase in I believe Helmand including guys in toilets opening and closing the doors in time to the chorus oh and BTW the scenes in-between two brick walls, that's the famous back alley of Coronation Street, longest running UK soap by far
Jimmy Savile was in the original before the edit, dropped for good taste.
The Mr Blobby celeb thing always was weird, it started on a Saturday evening entertainment show Noel's House Party, I think very young kids found it entertaining, adults in the main couldn't stand it.
You skipped Savile?!
british TV at its best making money for charity
