Broadcast 21st September 1975
I remember this show. Thanks for posting an episode.
Cant remember the series but my god its brilliant i love the 70's
Jonathan Lynn (channelling a bit of a vocal tribute to Rodney Bewes in that performance) then went on to co-write Yes Minister and more.
yes he and george layton wrote carry on again nurse, On the Buses, Nearest and Dearest, Romany Jones and My Name Is Harry Worth.
@@alexlazebat839They were also both in the Doctor In the House series.
@@squirehaggard4749 yes and wrote it
I grew up with shows like this before moving to America in 1983. I remember both these actors by sight, but have not seen them in basically forty years. I still watch many old shows like Rumpole and Rising Damp. Some comedy holds up well and some shows its age like this one. An expat in Florida.
I had forgotten all about this, thanks for posting.
Brothers keeper *Fantastic comedy* .
This is the predecessor to the wonderful 1983 *front line*
Anyway...
Can you please share the remainding 12 episodes of *my brothers keeper*
Many thanks _cbt_
Mr p decker.
I agree, any more episodes would be gratefully received. 70s Brit Com ts the BEST.
Monday nights after Corrie….
George Layton left It Ain't Half Hot Mum to do this show.
i thought because there was another doctor series
No he left IAHHM as he felt his character was being sidelined he said as much in an interview on the distinct nostalgia web site distinctnostalgia.buzzsprout.com/650596/episodes/15063409-we-meet-prolific-tv-actor-george-layton-doctor-in-the-house-it-aint-half-hot-mum-the-likely-lads-dr-who-z-cars-minder-and-more
From the days of fun and happiness.
A young Lesley Dunlop too.
Stripper Brandy Di Franck was seen 6 days prior to this episode being broadcast in the Sweeney episode 'Supersnout' ( shown Sep 15 1975 ) & she wore the same outfit.
Her other appearances as a stripper on tv shows include the Play For Today 'Brassneck', the 'Get Some In' episode 'VIP Guard', The Wheeltappers And Shunters Club ( bizarrely her stripping routine appears on a tie-in LP & she is featured on the album cover alongside Manning & Crompton ) & the 'Z Cars' episode 'Rummage' ( also featuring Judy Matheson as an exotic dancer, Judy has said in an interview that Brandy taught her the rudiments of burlesque dance for the appearance ).
Sounds like she were type-cast

Ten little what???!!!???!!!! 8:14
and they were none agatha christie, ten indians
Yes, you heard correctly. That was the title of the Agatha Christie whodunnit. it was later changed to the alternative title mentioned in this clip. It is as they say, a reflection of the views and attitudes of the time.
@@EnglishAddict i was only having this same conversation the other day about thomas the tank engine when they used the n word
It's actually a fairly progressive discussion of the word, given the attitudes of the era.
@@ClassicBritishTelly what puzzles me is on wiki 1950's weren't ok with it so why use those terms
The 70s really was a terrible time for sitcoms. Only a small handful were funny or can stand up today. Mediocre and dire come to mind. But some clowns still live in their perfect, poorly remembered, past.
A classic time for comedy sitcoms. Put together a top ten of all time comedies and most will be from the 70s…
@@stephengoulding1595- Rubbish. Rising Damp, Porridge, and Fawlty Towers are the only real classics. The comedies of today are far superior. As has been proved by so many top 50/100 lists.
@@user-ii8tc7zm2h 50s = Hancock/ 60s = Alf Garnet, Steptoe/ 70s = Rising Damp, Porridge, Fawlty Towers, Reggie Perrin, Some Mothers Do Have’Em / 80s = Only Fools And Horses / 90s = Absolutely Fabulous. After that, I can’t think of any classics ? Add some more to the list..
@@stephengoulding1595 80s best was The Young Ones and 3 of the 4 Blackadders, Yes Prime Minister, and The New Statesman. 90s you have League of Gentlemen, The Royal Family, Spaced, Alan Partridge, Dinner Ladies, Father Ted, and Rab C Nesbit. now the 2000's: Not Going Out, The Thick of It, The IT Crowd, Green Wing, Peep Show, The Office, Extras, Still Game, The Young Offenders, The Inbetweeners, Outnumbered, Catterick, Count Arthur Strong, Phoenix Nights, Car Share, Black Books, Ghosts, Marion & Geoff, Nighty Night, Man Down, Mum, Toast of London , and Two Doors Down. Beats ALL previous decades. Plus I have not even touched on the far superior to ours, the American ones. But you carry on living in your little fantasty world of the great 70s.
