I remember this as though yesterday. Loved the way that there was always a catch, and nothing vulgar, no swearing in order to get a laugh. This kind of comedy is no longer promoted.

I was 3yrs old at the time these guys were on the stage..lovely to see how young these guys were.. Grew up knowing them, but as much older men... Who sadly have now passed.
Also including my favourite, George Roper, at complete ease with the audience, enjoying telling the jokes, like he was one of your mates who just happened to be good at it. I also liked Mike Burton with his surreal style of humour and Eddie Flanagan, so relaxed it looked like he'd forgotten why he was there in between his jokes.

Been a band guy thru the seventies but I always got some one to record the comedians coz they were so funny, just brilliant comedy. Great times they were, but not PC for these days. Love it
Yes, TheJamie43, we could laugh at ourselves back then. I'm Irish, and I used to love the Irish jokes. They aren't allowed any more :( I loved the one about Paddy coming down the street dragging a big heavy wardrobe behind him. Murphy sees him and says, "Why don't you get somebody to help you?" "I did," says Paddy. "He's inside carrying the clothes." :)
"Everything was rubbish in the seventies" I'm sorry you feel that way, because I remember the seventies very well, and I don't remember everything being rubbish at all. In fact, I think on the whole it was far superior to the time we live in now. Better TV, better music, better football, better movies...and a lot less government intrusiveness and surveillance than we have to put up with now. Give me the seventies every time...
3 years later.. how do you feel about your comment? lol... i hope you feel good about it, because its excelent. your comment still stands.. lets remember that the comedians of the 70s had jokes that were "too edgy" to be shown on tv in the 90s+.. frankie boyles are just the right amount of "edgyness" LOL... aka- everyone knows they are purely crude comments looking for a cheap laugh.. unchallenging- sympathetic and lazy
Just remember in 1975 there were only three TV channels available, four national radio stations, and that was it. They held a captive audience. Also, these comedians were veterans of the working men's clubs, which was a tough training ground, and they had to tailor their comedy to their style of clubs.
But back then comedy i feel was clearly pidgeon hold fyi..working mens clubs..more sort of public school fyi..monty phython..now all the various lines are blurred anything goes..2019
It's just our slang like stupid Americans always say awesome to describe something they approve of, totally ruining the impact of that word. Don't be such a dick. Anyway, the word proper is used in it's correct context here, so you criticism is invalid. Who the fuck are you to criticise our use of OUR language. You're so obviously a troll. How about actually saying something positive for once instead of just criticising others all the time. If you cahn't say something positive then fuck off elsewhere and take that chip on your shoulder with you.
@@Trev359 Chill out mate. Calling Americans stupid and then typing " How about actually saying something positive for once instead of just criticising others all the time. If you can't say something positive then fuck off elsewhere and take that chip on your shoulder with you".
Got to be the BEST comedy show EVER produced for TV. No swearing.No lewdness,No boring jokes. Just real comedy with marvellous one liners plus racist jokes that did'nt offend. I watched The Comedians religiously in the 70's and regretted its disappearance when TV comedy went bad.
I would loved to have Johnny Carson watch this. I wonder what he would have made of UK stand up comedy of the 1970s. Johnny was the king of comedy in the US in the 1970s. He brought on many US stand up comedians on the Tonight Show and made them stars. I wonder of he would liked any of these guys?
Glenn Johnson I remember watching this back in `75 and having just watched it here again after all these years,still as funny.No swear words.Says it all.Thankyou for uploading this.Brilliant.
Thanks for the upload, brings bk lots of memories n even tell the jokes to diff ppl, Bernard manning is class , he'd never get away with his jokes in this day of age lol
Wow a very young Mike Reid (aka Frank Butcher from Eastenders) and Frank Carson (from Tiswas). Brought up with these jokes. A lot of these comedians had completely different jokes when they played in the clubs or broadcast after the watershed!
Luckily, I was born in '65. I was forced to watch these constantly rehashed old jokes when my parents had control of the TV while I was growing up. Then the 80s came along with the possibility of seeing alternative comedians like Alexi Sayle on a portable in the bedroom. Perfect timing for me. The comedy world was blown wide open , and we never looked back
'alternative' wasn't comedy, it was dumbed down slapstick and relied on profanity, just like today. Sure, these jokes are crappy, and in fairness, they never hardly made me laugh, but alternative simply appealed to the lowest of brows. Simple baby comedy, like the young ones, with stupid slapstick and toilet humour (and not even good toilet humour) Comedy never recovered after that.
Born same year and yes when watch the comedians now have to say so bad it's good. Young ones was brilliant and a start to more diverse and brilliant humour.
I too was born in 65. Whilst I don't think this programme has aged well, it must be remembered there was zero tolerance of foul language, or of "adult subjects" on TV in the 70s. The world we lived in then has gone forever, as through the ensuing decades, foul language and "adult themed" subjects became mainstream humour. Today of course it's fascinating to think we can say THE most foul language, about depraved $e×ual acts on TV without a care, but "The Vicar of Dibley" and "Only Fools and Horses" have warnings about possible offensive content!!
+Derrick Walker I think shit is the word I would use rather than awful. Awfully shit. I guess having just three tv channels back them made this show a success.
Genuine question - and I mean this sincerely - what part of this specifically did you think was "great"? I mean, which joe really stood out to you as being top flight entertainment.
I was 12 and laughed my arse off with my younger brother and for many years after, until it was sent back to safety, away from the new wave of political corrctness
Remember watching this show back in the 1970s. Even then, I found some jokes were better than others, some comedians were better than others, some episodes were better than others. While some 'politically minded' characters are quick to knock this show, as hostile to their values or views, its worth remembering this was afternoon television, on a Saturday? The comedians were here to entertain a family audience, comprising every age. Many had a quite different act for adult audiences, and many had survived a long career in working mans clubs etc. Whether you like their humour or not, the vast majority of decent, civilised human beings will be most concerned at those that seek to curb other peoples sense of humour, because they know it won't stop there.
I understand what you are meaning, but you must understand it was a time when you couldn't say things on TV as you could do on stage. But today the humour are most based upon swearings and lavatory humour than these comedians did on The Comedians.
Proper jokes by proper comedians, genuinely funny , and delivered with perfect timing. these were great times, today's comedy is so poor by comparison, and they haven't got the heart and spirit of these old comics...........miss these great times
There was a paperback that came out around same time. I remember studying it assiduously as a schoolgirl and 1970s the comedians had so much personality. Alot of fun There was a music hall vibe holding British comedy lost since the 1980s. But judging by The Sketch Show 2003, British comedy has not suffered despite the predations of the EU experiment.

George was my favourite, always a twinkle in his eye and a smile when the joke goes down well.

the 70's were awesome...the last decade before greed became king and a decade when the word 'offended' was rarely used...
The racial and sexual politics of the 70s led to the current liberal insanity. It's all connected.
Before thatcher ?
Rubbish
No work, no future, dirt and rubbish everywhere, open racism and sick man of Europe. We have come a long way.
Sadly a lot of these comedians voted politically Thatcher the source of that greed.

Excellent, love these snapshots of a better time! Great humour!

Bring bk the 70s 80s 90s good movies gd music bk then today years are rubbish nothin on music rubbish
Ken Goodwin total genius
Great memories, used to laugh to all these guys in the 70's.
Been a band guy thru the seventies but I always got some one to record the comedians coz they were so funny, just brilliant comedy. Great times they were, but not PC for these days. Love it

@Shahid Khan nuttin wrong with racists. Sure at least half of the english are racists. Lovely people
1978 is down as the happiest/contented year the UK has ever been,,, since then down hill and it is all due to over popularisation
Shahid Khan where are the racists?
TheJamie43 We had a good laugh then . Never seen anyone laugh now. Younger generation are so miserable.
omg memories thanks for sharing
Gosh, I remember this show back in the day. I had forgotten George Roper, though, but the sow joke made me laugh out loud.
