The little guy Charlie Drake was a massive star in the 1960s, tv, films and records ( My boomerang won't come back) let's just say he 'enjoyed' himself with drink, cars and ladies probably even more than a few well known pop stars! In one of his TV shows, the script called for him to be thrown through a bookcase, so the crew provided a specially built bookcase, what they never knew when they started filing the live show, a new carpenter 'took care' of the poorly built bookcase, screwed and helped it together. Charlie was thrown through the bookcase, he was knocked unconscious before he hit the floor, there are clips on RUclips, the next part in the script was him being thrown through a window. You can see the actor struggling with an unconscious Charlie, and must have thought he was acting, he threw him through the window,,,, Nobody thought anything was wrong, until they realised he had come back onto the set,,he had landed on a stage weight, and fractured his skull
I remember watching that at the time, we thought something wasn't right but, unlike today, we had to wait a couple of days before it was mentioned on the news.
The legendary, I mean 'legendary' Charlie Drake; a one-time massive music hall, variety and stage character. H e made a lot of money back in the late sixties and early seventies 'I'm a Gnu; How do you do", PG tips Tea Adverts! He also had his own greeting 'Hello My Darlings", fabulous radio and variety act!
If I remember rightly, you are quite correct... I think he had gone tea-total by then..? But having seen the panto twice within a month, I can confirm that the whole performance was scripted and made to look as if it was 'ad-libbed'. This was just a tiny bit of a LONG adult panto and Charlie Drake had many appearances with lots of moves, actions and talking parts etc, so was the perfectionist in acting the way he did.
I remember the Charlie Drake show when he was actually, rather than pretend, knocked unconscious and then thrown threw a window. He was supposed to come back through the door with his catch phrase "Hallo, my darlings" but didn't and the programme ended in some confusion. It was of course live in those days. You can see a poor recording on RUclips.
Sinderella. Old fella was the late great Charlie Drake. Jim Davidson wrote the panto. He also wrote Boobs in the Wood. One of the few non-political comics out there. A legend in my book.
it was an " adult pantomime " I believe ! The little guy was Charlie Drake - sadly gone but he was quite a famous television sitcom actor back in the sixties !
You should watch Jethro Norfolk Dyke Dish, with Jim Davidson. It’s outtakes from a show Jim was hosting and his best mate (who was a also comedian) Jethro. They couldn’t stop laughing, it’s so funny.
Just popped by to say merry Christmas to you both. LOVE your channel, one of my favourites on RUclips 👏🏻👏🏻❤️🙏🏻 Just stop confusing me by sitting in opposite chairs😂
The small guy is Charlie Drake he used to have his own TV shows during the 50’s and 60’s. . Jim Davison in the blue had his own TV shows but the left wing don’t like him. The Armed Forces love him!
Ah, I thought you'd like this as soon as I saw it come up in my notifications ! It was actually all very cleverly scripted to look like ad-lib, apart from the bit that you viewed here, where Charlie couldn't remember his lines and had to get a prompt from the orchestra pit on 'telegraph pole'. Here's the full show - the lady who plays 'Sinders' is Dianne Lee, part of a very succesful folk / pop duo in the 70s and 80s, Peters and Lee. Lennie Peters was an Uncle of Rolling Stones drummer Charlie Watts. ruclips.net/video/CpIXZZB0-qk/видео.html
There are some wonderful other bits in the show try and watch it all. I did have Cinderella going to the ball up as a clip but got told to take it down. But yes you can see it all on line under Sinderella
Hi Brad & Lucy, the comedian playing the Baron (Charlie Drake) was most popular in the `60`s & `70`s TV, films & released singles. In 1967 he won an award for his comedy performance of the 1812 overture, playing the parts of multiple orchestra members. see :- ruclips.net/video/KZM33ynvBKg/видео.html & songs :- Boomerang ruclips.net/video/_prtbj4MtDU/видео.html , Mr. Custer ruclips.net/video/dl1RltqVK4I/видео.html Enjoy !! :)
Charlie Drake was on a flight going somewhere many years ago. He approached one of the stewardesses during flight and said "what would you say a little f**k, she looked at him and replied, "hello little f**k.
@@thehonestcritic6577 To be honest i think you could be right i just have the bookcase as a thin memory but you could be right as it was a long time ago. Now i need to know ,so will check somehow and let you know.
@@thehonestcritic6577 Just watched "Charlie Drake's 1961 accident " and he was knocked out being thrown through a bookcase which was made too well then while knocked out two men [ only one was supposed to be used] then thrown through a sugar glass window so we were both right. As the show was live the actor could not lift the dead weight of Charlie so another person joined in to drop Charlie through the window.
Charlie Drake...legend...nuff said. pretty sure the only bit that Charlie forgot was the Gnu song and the telegraph pole...the rest was pure comic genius, playfulness and immaculate timing
Jim Davidson is wearing blue. The full length Sinderella is approx 1h 30m and is a real laugh from start to finish and is based on pantomine comedy as is Boobs in the Wood another Jim Davidson stage adult comedy which is equally funny.
Americans do this tamer version on ice a fiery tails we do adult version puss in boots and babes in the woods and there is sinderella two without a few stars are dead. This is about 1 hour 45 minutes with songs and jokes all the way through this show Love mum
Hi guys Brad you mentioned Don rickles who was a regular on Dean Martins man of hour from Vegas, where they would each take turns to roast the star guest, foster Brooks was probably the best he would roast the guest as if he was pissed loved that show. You also mentioned Tim Conway he did alot of stuff with Harvey korman on the carol burnet show, Tim's old man routines were hilarious. His and Harveys dentist sketch is one of the funniest schetches loved that show especially all the adlibs Tim did you have to watch if haven't already seen it brilliant. Anyway take care Brad and Lucy, from hereford city, UK 😂😂❤
@@SirHilaryManfat Sorry for the late reply but just been watching 5 million passionate, patriotic Argentinians welcome their National heroes home. Jim Davidson?He is patriotic and a Proud Englishman and British person,who loves the Flag,the Monarchy, and The British people and supports our Troops in THe Forces. Bloody patriot ......I don't like him....
@@SirHilaryManfat Tell that to all the soldiers who needed a laugh when they are 5 mins away from a bullet ending their life. From the Falklands to Afghanistan he was there supporting our warriors
Hi Brad & Lucy .. I, Loved this Video & your Reaction, always the Best 👌 **was Wondering could You Both React to Carol Burnett Show's "The Dentist" Sketch❓️ if so .. make Sure it's the FULL Sketch as You don't want to Miss anything ... Thankyou for ALL your Uploads, Stay Healthy & Stay Safe, & Take care of Yourselves-if You have to Venture Out .. Cheers 🍻
hey guys you should go find the full video its brilliant ive watched it about 10 times and it still makes me laugh the old guy charlie drake passed away few yrs back his famous catch fraze was hello my darlings was funny man
When you said he forgot his lines they weren't his lines they were just talking about his last car and he couldn't remember the word for telegraph pole
Jim Davidsons Sinderella plays started in the 1990's. sinderella Live - 1995 [ where this clip is from ] sinderella 2 Comes again - 2004. i could send you a link.... but i won't bother as youtube don't allow it, & they will only delete it. but.... you could still download it or buy it. as they are still very popular in England. Amazon have them on sale and are very much worth the price. just make sure you type them correctly with a letter S, & not with the letter C. sinderella Live - 1995 - sinderella 2 Comes again 2004. if you download video content I'm positive you will find them.
Jim davidsons "boobs in the wood" aka babes in the wood a traditional english childrens tale, jim did rude versions of classic british panto,s for adults with the results as in this video..😁
Jim walks VERY close to a very low line. I only wish I could explain just what he means, to people who lived in the UK through the 1980s. He meant 'something' to everyone. He did (and still does) a "kindly" impersonation of a black character called Chalky; when there were very few black people on British TV. His act and his life are very much "of the time". But he is Jim Davidson, and we ALL spent hours laughing along back in the 80s. Those who remember those days can enjoy the simplistic bawdy nonsense; but there is lots for those who don't remember to be offended by. Jim Davidson is a tough act to sum up. He does good work, entertaining the troops. But he doesn't particularly like the cancel culture/PC brigade; and they CERTAINLY don't like him.
Don't get the wrong idea. Charlie Drake was a consummate professional. Everything you saw here was planned, or improvised to perfection. A top quality performance! 😊
The "Jamaican" voice was based on one of Jim's friends who was known as "chalky", who was a Mac-a-nik🔧. Charlie did a song called "I'm a GNU" & a tv advert for Typhoo tea which featured a jingle based on the song. I knew this would appeal to your fucked up sense of humour - you must watch the whole panto.
In the 1960's Charlie had a regular TV show which was brought to an abrupt end due to a serious injury. A sketch called for him to be thrown through a bookcase which had been rigged to collapse. Unfortunately, an overenthusiastic carpenter had discovered the rickety condition of the bookcase and sured it up! Result - Charlie was knocked unconscious with a fractured skull. The actors working with him, however, unaware of his real condition, continued with the rest of the sketch which required that they pick him up and throw him through an open window. He took three days to regain consciousness. For more Charlie, search RUclips for "The Worker" (I think it might have been an episode of this in which he was injured.)
NOT drunk and ALL scripted. I know, having been to two performances a week or more apart. Each one was exactly as this, with all the 'seeming' ad-libs etc.. And Charlie Drake was 'on the wagon' (not drinking alcohol), but a perfectionist in acting. Just saying!
ACTING 'the old drunk fella' was Charlie Drake (he was tea-total when they were performing this). It's called acting and he was a perfectionist... every night (fully scripted).
That wasn’t his line Charley Drake really did crash an Aston Martin in to a pole and Jim at this point had lost his driving license for drink driving for the 3rd time. Almost all off this was off the cuff as they was all to pissed to remember it properly. 🤣
I can say 'it wasn't off the cuff', having seen it twice at the time (in 1995) and all the (supposed) 'ad libs' were scripted... JD played 'Buttons', CD played 'Baron Hardon', Mia Carla played the Fairy Godmother and Jess Conrad played 'Prince 'well-hung' Charming. They did 'ad-lib' during the panto though, like when someone laughed loudly in the audience and whoever was on stage might turn and make a comment or joke or answer a heckler etc. EDIT: I got the year wrong! DUH, my bad...
@@ListerDavid - If I remember correctly, Charlie Drake was either tea-total or never drank before a performance (?). He played the the part to perfection and had to do it every night the same...
The"old guy "is none other than Charlie Drake - a huge variety star in Britain in the 1960's. Great to see him again.
Charlie was such a superb character 😁👍
Jim is still going strong and a great supporter of military veterans.
Jim is a legend who does loads for our troops and veterans
Saw him at stevenage theatre the other week and he's still as funny as ever.

Nobody thought anything was wrong, until they realised he had come back onto the set,,he had landed on a stage weight, and fractured his skull
I've seen this and it is shocking and upsetting, you know what's coming and it feels like slow motion. He used to do straight Pantomimes to.

Love you guys
You must watch the whole of 'Sinderella' The clue is in the title. Merry Christmas to you both.
Jim is in Blue, Charlie Drake is a legend (& wasn't drunk - just pure acting).
Charlie was a great singer and comedy singer,Jim was in blue
We actually reacted to the whole show, but it was pulled from RUclips unfortunately.
were you forced to remove the full version you put on here? was magic watching that a classic
Yes, unfortunatley 😥
crazy I'm from the UK and i doubt many people would even know it was a stage event its that long ago
This is a tiny part of Sinderella, and Jim Davidson (the tall one in the blue) has done a few adult pantomimes...
Buttons was Jim Davidson , "The old guy" was Charlie Drake .
Jim Davidson was the guy dressed in blue, Charlie Drake was the old guy.
Yes it was a while adult pantomime. It's been repeated on UK TV a lot in the last 25 years or so
Charlie Drakes sings. My boomerang won't come back.
Another song that he released was “Please mister Custer, please don’t make me go” and many others too.
Every time I start watching one of your videos I feel a trem thirst coming on. I feel the need to drink copious quantities of lager!

Hi guys, just wanted to say that at the beginning you add that “you are responsible drinkers”.
Surprised you haven’t been struck by lightning. 👍
Don't get the wrong idea.
Charlie Drake was a consummate professional.
Everything you saw here was planned, or improvised to perfection.
A top quality performance! 😊
I thought that too...Charlie Drake was a long time professional...He'd been on stage since the age of 8...He was 70 in this
The "Jamaican" voice was based on one of Jim's friends who was known as "chalky", who was a Mac-a-nik🔧.
Charlie did a song called "I'm a GNU" & a tv advert for Typhoo tea which featured a jingle based on the song.
I knew this would appeal to your fucked up sense of humour - you must watch the whole panto.
Jim Davidson's Ustreme. RUclips channel.
You should definitely check out the sitcom “Bottom”.
In UK 'pissed' means drunk. The UK equivalent of the American 'pissed' is pissed off.
In Canada, we say pissed as well 😁
It was an ADULT pantomime.
In the 1960's Charlie had a regular TV show which was brought to an abrupt end due to a serious injury. A sketch called for him to be thrown through a bookcase which had been rigged to collapse. Unfortunately, an overenthusiastic carpenter had discovered the rickety condition of the bookcase and sured it up! Result - Charlie was knocked unconscious with a fractured skull. The actors working with him, however, unaware of his real condition, continued with the rest of the sketch which required that they pick him up and throw him through an open window. He took three days to regain consciousness. For more Charlie, search RUclips for "The Worker" (I think it might have been an episode of this in which he was injured.)
My favourite Jim Davidson joke was after his third marriage when he said to save time he was just going to find a woman he hated and buy her a house.
Charlie drake was a feckin legend and nobody knows him. He could read the alphabet and have you piss yourself
Old guy was Charlie Drake.....brilliant comedian.
The worker
see my comment below
Watch "Boobs in the Woods" from Jim as well its great.
Please watch more of this pantomime it’s so funny
