Russ Abbot made my childhood sparkling golden...absolutely love it

[@rajnirvan3336]

This has brought tears to my eyes happy memories of real Saturday night tv and being a child

[@spreadthelove77]

Raj Nirvan Same mate👍🏼😀

[@JAY1892]

Seeing you has taken me back to better times. Good to see you Sir. 🙏🏾

[@Victoria7141]

Absolutely hilarious! Thank you so much for uploading. I wish there were many more programmes like this - we need it now more than ever. There is so much garbage on nowadays, that I don't know where the my TV begins and my dustbin ends, so don't bother watching any more.

[@gpo746]

Les Dennis at 1:40 , I really had to double take as this is the best impersonation of John Inman ever , even the voice was spot on .

[@joannegray5138]

Brilliant. Thanks for this. I've been trawling You Tube for weeks because there's never anything worth watching on telly, and this has made my day :)

[@squeelerjakeaxcradle7095]

Loved these classics growing up, what a delight to relive this on the weekends so funny

[@IthratCordwallis]

I've been trawling my way through some old 80s primetime telly, mostly stuff of which I was aware but didn't see at the time, and this was much better than I expected; there was some excellent character work in amongst the broad (et still funny) stuff, and even the bits that they wouldn't be able to get away with today (I'm looking at you, Jim'll jinx it and the final musical number) were properly enjoyable. Thanks for the upload.

[@christopherdrennan3511]

First time I've seen a full episode of Russ Abbots Madhouse, plz do more!

[@2ombieboysVHSVault]

if i find more i will upload them :)

[@christopherdrennan3511]

2ombieboy's VHS Vault cheers.

[@dirkdaring3073]

The musical number was the best thing I've seen in years -just brilliant!

[@DAVID-bv2gv]

absolutely brilliant 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣👍🏻 no one even comes close to Russ nowadays

[@McSynth]

Glad you uploaded this !

[@patbailey3872]

I Managed to videotape some but not all of the madhouse episodes more than 30 years ago and I still watch them now even though picture degraded over the years but still watchable. He lost his spark when moved to the BBC and the writing got to be more slapstick which I am not a fan of so didn't tape them but when he moved back to ITV in the middle 90s I taped them so I can still delight in his full of fun characters.

[@bumblingbert]

you havent still got them i been looking for his 94 to 95 series for years

[@crazycraigy01]

probably refused to be a Paedo for BBC...😏

[@chrisbareford6890]

Russ Abbot's madhouse is now on sky channel 187 (Thats's TV) along with other great shows like Benny Hill & Monty Python

[@rolthesole]

Why can't we have comedy like this anymore? Answers on a postcard to.....😊

[@sc4344]

Why can't we have decent cars, decent music, decent clothes, decent professionals footballers everything has gone downhill

[@Steve-gc5nt]

@@sc4344 I wouldn't want a 1970s car thanks.

[@Wizard-uo4wj]

its f---king awful thats why ffs

[@geoffreyjonathanwilson5826]

Great entertainer! Criminally under-rated too I think!

[@adamoreilly6337]

Ahh I remember Dustin Gee 👍🏻

[@deanthyer9896]

loved it brought back memories ,,sunday night

[@philipbonner6486]

Great to this again thanks 😅😅

[@DanceySteveYNWA]

Millennials moan about 240p, Boomers had the tracking to deal with on VHS. Meanwhile, I'm sat watching this on a portable black and white with a coat hanger as an aerial...

[@gavinreid8937]

What a line up, which also used to include Michael Barrymore.

[@DeanoFrank]

Can not believe I found the wonderful I adore mi amor song, man Russ Abbot is forgotten about , while the usual tripe are remember. .

[@joeritchie7286]

Susie Blake an Sherrie Houson looked smokin hot back then

[@markgardner4426]

Loved his shows when I lived in the UK in the 80's. Funny skits always and great songs. I even purchased the LP of the songs.

[@tar_a]

Great job. You have more?

[@MrMarky2000]

Hilarious 😄

[@Mgb-js7gc]

what happened to real Saturday night tv

[@aidanlunn7441]

These aren't "missing" as such - the tapes still exist and are being looked after and maintained but just haven't been released on DVD yet.

[@2ombieboysVHSVault]

cool i was not sure if they where. itv have claimed the video so hopefully if enough people watch this episode it my prompt them to issue a dvd. i would buy it as enjoy this type of humour

[@aidanlunn7441]

You'd need to speak to Network DVD, they release tons of ITV stuff and this would be right up their street.

[@willpurry]

No main channel comedy or drama show from after the mid '70s will have been wiped.

[@Gallowaywind]

Alas it not itv you need to speak to it someone else, I cant remember the story but I believe Russ management has a control in the series.. TY for uploading this gem, ITs only one but its the only one!

[@jaapseiye2246]

you got any September Song bud?

[@myrahenderson5798]

Seen the neg reviews of course its dated this is a different era but I enjoyed it

[@LovelyRuthie]

Hmm...I suspect it won't get released what with the Jim'll Fix It reference & the blackface at the very least... #differenttimes

[@crazycraigy01]

2.20...That barman was in Hi-de-hi, when it started i had to hit bedtime for school 9-10pm..pisser..that hi-de-hi intro song was classic, the big dirty blonde and that Barry guy..😏

[@davidspencer3191]

classic russ and the gang ..with the young susie blake and sherrie hewson ,, wooohh and the late bella emberg and family fortunes ... les dennis and the sad passing of dustin gee

[@simonhodgetts6530]

I forgot how good this show was!

[@tinaoxnam593]

Dont see any dvds of Russ Abbott.

[@stjust17320]

Ah the days of silly stuff ,no wokism and non bindery cow crap

[@brenthennessy7903]

People who are calling this shit are judging this from today's standards and morals and not by the eighties standards. How do you think a forty something TV viewer from 1983 would feel if they could watch today's comedians and sketch shows? They'd probably call someone like Russell Howard a left wing whinging twat! Times change, but nobody should be judged on liking old comedy.

[@bwlboy123]

It's amazing what a difference 35 years makes. I can even remember seeing the Madhouse in St David's Hall in Cardiff. I loved this a 10 year kid but looking at it now, it truly is terrible.

[@stormytempest6521]

JUST FUNNY.

[@TheGava4]

01:41 poor Mavis can’t tell a decent joke..

[@leeneale8776]

That Les geezah, bout as funny as Jimmy Tarbuck!.🙄

[@davidbeavan9521]

TV people lost the plot

[@Solaar_Punk]

What's with the terrible accents and voices?

[@Steve-gc5nt]

Jesus, that's not good.

[@philipbonner6486]

It's because in your minds eye of a world
