Yes...they called their own tour 'behind the fridge' after they seperated from Jonanthan Miller and Alan Bennet, who were the other half of the original 'beyond the fringe' group, which made them all famous. Peter Cook and Dudley Moore called their own show 'behind the fridge' after a doorman, who couldnt speak english very well, called the original group that when all four did their sell out new york tour in 1962.
HAHAHA!! ooo, thats hilarious! and his silly walk is more entertaining than cleese's (which is hard bc i was already enamored of the Ministry of Silly Walks) his cloak-billowing would give Snape a run for his money. is that a cloak, really, or part of the academic robe?
Then this begs the question….. “which came first, the Cook or the Cleese”? I still go for Cleese as the “sillier” walker as it’s a bit more refined and definitely more animated AND he’s got a degree. So (I think) the Cook came first. But then if anyone can confirm either way we could meet in Room 12a ‘for an argument’.
I agree Graham Chapman is the truer genius. He puked under his desk for all to see. But I don't see what your comment has to do with this particular sketch, which is by a different comedy duo.
Yeah. Poor Dudley. What would he do, if he weren't tied to Peter? He might have been Mozart. In fact, he probably was. But he never sold as many records as the Red Hot Chili Peppers. He was probably a no-talent hack. Still, Poor Peter, saves Dudley from the deluge once more. "Out," says Peter, guzzling the bottle. "I said out!"
You can see Beyond the Fringe in the making. Delightful!
Excellent! Been waiting ages for these!
Nope it is Behind the Fridge - a 1974 one-off special for the BBC with material from the stage revue of the same name.

This is always reminds me of one of my old university History lecturers.
They've got it to a tee!

Thank you
Do your research. They did two shows, two different titles, one letter off, similar material.
The best of the best.
ill do another then as they got a nice response.
Who is they? More specific. More specific. The repetition is to emphasize the ardency with which I wish you to be not so lazy.
guys-it's beyond the fringe, not fridge
The group was known as both at different times with different lineups. Please refer to the comments above for more information.
I've really gone off Cleese in recent years. Chapman is the best p

Utter bollocks

Excellent!!! Thanks for the upload!!!
Poor Dudley must be thinking here we go again...

Looks awfully similar to "Silly Walks".
