The joke about the milk bottle tops is a reference to how milk back in the day was delivered to your doorstep and the foil top was often pecked at by the birds in the morning trying to get at the cream, often blue tits, a common British bird and a clever pun about the Sun newspaper which featured topless models on page 3.😂
I remember when I was little Canadian tv used to air all the British comedians like Dave Allen and Benny Hill, Monty Python etc. after midnight and my dad stayed up and watched them so my brother and I would sneak down to the landing to try and see them ourselves. That is how I was introduced to these shows and more than 40 years later I still think they are hysterical! It brings back so many memories!
This is Ronnie Barker at his best. He’s using the fact your brain can go ‘Anywhere’ if you plant some simple hints. That then lets the mischievous part of your mind run wild. A wickedly funny and brilliant man!
Co-op is short for cooperative, a business owned by its workers where all profits are shared. Specifically, The Co-Op is a small supermarket, local to pretty much everywhere. So yes, you could find fish there, in the freezer section.
Hi Guys, great to see you enjoying more of the Two Ronnies. The Co-op growing up in the `60/70s was another Retail Department Store, selling everything from furnishings to food. It started as the Co-operative Movement around 160 yrs ago in the U.K . As far as I`m aware, it was where smaller businesses across the country joined together under one banner, to have a brand & buy in bulk. (So as regards the crossword, a fishmonger)
The co-op is not a supermarket. It's a convenience/grocery shop. Asda Sainsbury's Aldi Tesco's Morrisons Lidl Those are all the supermarkets in the UK.
The Co-Op (Cooperative Society) was an early version of Walmart, stocking all the essentials for everyday life that people commonly used back then. The American equivalent was a General Store.
a double twist at the end....yeah...your right...the nun, did put SHIT..in the crossword....then asked for a RUBBER?...(erasor) or in slang a CONDOM....to erase the error....considering the time, this show aired, early eighties...it was very Risqué, to have a NUM asking anybody for a rubber (CONDOM)...genius comedy writing...i hope you agree...lol
Co-op is short for "the co-operative" which is a chain of grocery stores in the UK. They're supposedly owned by their staff who get a share of the profits IIRC. Historically they were founded out of various local co-operative societies where members and staff got a share of the profits for sales made. Co-operative societies were common in the mid to late 1800s in the UK up until the late 1930s, especially in rural areas. Today the Co-op runs supermarkets (mostly smaller ones) and a bank as well as an investment arm IIRC.
Co-op is for a co-operative, an association of private individuals to specific goals - one of which could be housing, or the supply of food. There's a supermarket in the UK called the Co-op owned in part by the shopworkers.
The SUN newspaper reference is to do with female models on page 3 of the paper with their knockers on show. Topless Page 3 models were introduced by the Sun in 1970 and ceased In January 2015.
Co-op is a supermarket but can also be a housing association. Page 3 of The Sun was a topless model and blue tits are a national bird that learned to peck holes in the foil milk bottle tops when milk was delivered and left on your doorstep. I'm afraid that I'm so old I still do the crossword in the newspaper (not The Sun) without using Google. Great to see the Two Ronnie's. Thanks guys xx
It's Co-op, the Cooperative Society. Started as a general store for the poor in Rochdale near Manchester as they we being ripped of by the Commercial grocery stores.
Sun tabloid newspaper (I use gat term newspaper very loosely when talking about The Sun) used to feature a topless model on page 3. People that bought The Sun often bought it just for that. The other tabloids followed suit. Daily Mirror, Daily Star, there was even one that featured topless models every two or three pages called the Daily Sport/Sport (it used to have a "nipple count" on page 2 telling how many nipples were shown in that issue). Any joke about The Sun, is usually based around the dumbed down nature of the readership and the tits on page 3. Surprise, surprise, it's another Rupert Murdoch shit sheet. Page 3 has gone, but otherwise it's the same low brow, right wing, shit sheet it ever was. BTW, sad comment on Britain that until recently it was the biggest selling newspaper in the UK.
The newspaper ‘The Sun’ was a rag that had half naked women on page 3, hence the reference to tits,And a half naked man on page 7 for equality reasons only
Hi Daniel & Spencer x Brilliant!! 😂 I remember watching The two Ronnie's with my parents when I was a kid. Brilliant sketches! Have you guy's watched "The Dick Emery" show yet? If not, I highly recommend it!!! Love and respect to you and your family xx 💌 Clare Wright 🏴 UK 😃 (Rotherham, South Yorkshire)
Please can you do a reaction to the 2 Ronnies "Swedish made simple" sketch. It is so clever and so funny. I guarantee you will love it and it will make my day to hear what you guys make of it. Thanks.
Whilst UK letter boxes can come in varying sizes, most use a standard size of 254mmx38mm (10x1. 5inches), with most postal gift mailings adhering to this size.
* _Is_ the name of a supermarket...they still exist, fortunately. Where my daughter and I live, we're halfway between a Co-op and a Tesco Express, (the latter being merely a stone's throw from our Health Centre / GP's Surgery, and a small Pharmacy next door).
It's okay, if you come to the UK and say "eraser" we'll know what you mean. In fact, on packets it will always say "Erasers" not rubbers, it's just that's what we call them. Although, erasers might be more commonly said in the UK these days than it used to be
Maybe you didn't get the point (or two, actually) that the daily Sun newspaper used to always show a large picture on page 3 of various big-breasted young women whose attributes were barely covered.
@Embrace The Suck 21 nice... Morecambe and Wise the Andrew Preview sketch....you can thank me later...the absolute best timing sketch in British comedy history...
"It's not Rose" Really. Since when does a Hose smell? LOL Co-op is short for Cooperative Society which was originally set up in Rochdale near Manchester as a community grocery. A rubber is an eraser.
Brilliant these two are legendary over here.. Love you two to test out your braincells by checking out The one percent club a show over here hosted by lee mack.. Not a panel show just a show where contestants have to answer mind boggling questions.. Like to see how you guys would do.. 👍 👍
This is none of that - I think it's a parody on the self, on class. On the left we have the educated well dressed stock broker and the newspapers he reads. On the right the (ordinary) man who knows nothing of his world, engaging in the pleasures with which he's fed.
Another take on this joke … man on a train doing a crossword asks “What’s four letters for a female? Something …unt.” The guy next to him says “Aunt.” Then the nun across the way asks if anyone has a rubber/eraser. :)
These two are the pinnacle of British humour. Comedy geniuses at work......They are sadly missed.....

Spot on.
Open to page 3 on the tube,preferably next to a nice bird.
Watch the discomfort.
My mum used to say...
It's better to remain silent and appear a fool..
Than to open your mouth and remove all doubt..

Co-op is short for cooperative, a business owned by its workers where all profits are shared. Specifically, The Co-Op is a small supermarket, local to pretty much everywhere. So yes, you could find fish there, in the freezer section.
The customers also have shares in the Co-op and contribute via percentages of their change towards a local good cause of their choice.
Co-op (coop) .. is a supermarket here.. hence he said fish.. x

Co-op is a supermarket.
Or as Americans call it, A grocery store.
Like a 7Eleven or a Circle K
This is correct
The co-op is not a supermarket. It's a convenience/grocery shop.
Asda

A Foodstore perhaps!

Love the punchline to this sketch. So unexpected.
Crossed Lines is still my favourite, equal to four candles of course :)
One of my favourites, along with 'Racing Duck!'
No, definitely a pigeon 🤣✌️
The co-op is a supermarket in UK - sells food etc... hence fish.

Also the fact a nun was doing the Sun crossword
@@Wairoakid
Probably because the Sun's crossword was so quick and easy to do in time for a short train journey?!!
Rubber Jonny yes, but I don't recall condoms being called ' rubbers ' .. if anything it was ' jonnies ' rather than ' rubbers '

The nun was played by Barbara New, one of the best comedy character actresses of her time.
Racing Pigeon skit is quite good.
Well the This Morning video was fun whilst it was up
The last part when nun asks for a rubber (eraser) was she’d obviously got the answer wrong and put sh*t which

The nun joke was a twofer
Always love that punchline
We have many slang terms for just about every body part, yes erasers are rubbers, but rubbers are condoms or bald mans overcoat.

We already did, it was the first Two Ronnie's we ever checked out :)

Four candles/fork handles is the best. And Fawlty towers The Germans

I miss page 3 😆
Daniel 3:47. Did you meen watering hose, O's, panty hose ? Please clarify.
That was a take on the dirtier version - "Feminine Gender, Four letters, ending in .UNT"? The answer is of course "AUNT". Does anyone have an eraser?
I think these lads have a good understanding of English humour and colloquialisms. Nice video.
What happened to the inbetweeners reactions, did you abandon it? i was enjoying them

Topless girl on page 3
