    Roy Barraclough was a much underrated comic foil to many great comedians of the seventies and eighties...I remember his appearance in Pink Carnations..an episode of Rising Damp with Leonard Rossiter...they played off each other brilliantly

    In true-to-form, those classic British double entendres are priceless. I'm an American and I LOVE British comedy and humor.

    ´That´ll ruin Florrie´s cream lagoon´ Les´s reaction must be one of the funniest moments in comedy history. Just sublime.

    Fantastic. Roy Barraclough was a friend of mine and he loved making these sketches with Legendary Les.
    An incredible comedy partnership which can still make us laugh, even when both of them have passed away

      ​@jonathanowen4075 True. Both comedy and drama. He invited me to see him starring in Death of a Salesman. Superb, an incredibly talented man, no ego and always down to earth.

      Roy is buried in my hometown Oldham. Often at the Rep in shows. He was a consummate actor. I wish he had done more straight roles. I was watching him, in Last Tango in Halifax recently, and he was more than a match for Sir Derek Jacobi.

    • @MaggieKrenek

      He wins top marks for not bursting out laughing. You could see him trying to control it. He was fabulous. They both were.

      Roy…Wonderful actor
      And Les, he came up through the school of hard knocks. Although he came to our attention courtesy of a talent show, he was worthy of everything that came after .
      We are still crying with laughing at these two nearly 40 years later, and I despair at how current, so called
      ‘comedy’ has fallen into the sewers .
      I’m so glad I lived through this wonderful time of great comedy entertainment. I just wish I’d appreciated it more at the time.
      You think that everything good is going to last forever when you’re young

    The sketch where they are drinking the homemade wine is great. The UCP mugs, which are obviously knicked. Unless you come from Lancashire you will have no idea what the UCP is/was. For all Cissie’s airs and graces, she still had robbed beakers in her house. What is clever is Les plays Ada like a Pantomime dame, whereas Roy plays Cissie, like a furcoat no knickers Northern woman. Les was way before his time. There is nothing cruel about Dawson’s humour. Julian Clary cited Dawson as a great inspiration to him. Him and Dave Allen to me were the two greats. Better than Eric Morecambe, Tommy Cooper, Frankie Howard, Ken Dodd. You can see VW in these sketches too.

    We wouldn't be allowed to laugh at them nowadays, just say how brave they are and accept them in the ladies changing rooms.
