As an Englishman the Two Ronnies are so dear to my heart. Both of them are iconic British Legends. Ronnie Barker had two sitcoms called Porridge and Open all hours which are still to this day some of the best British comedy ever written . As the saying goes “ they don’t make them like that anymore “ 🙏❤️🇬🇧.

Oh yes, we had so many problems with bats pecking holes in the bottle tops when I was a child too. Sometimes when it was really cold, the milk would freeze and push the top off of the bottle, and the bats would get frozen stuck to the milk. Some species of bat in the UK had teeth specially evolved to extract the milk from the bottles through tiny holes so it wasn't obvious that the bats had been at the milk. This all ended with the introduction of screw bottle tops, the bats just couldn't get the hang of unscrewing the caps with their teeny tiny feet.

The Two Ronnies was in reality Ronny Barker, who was a brilliant wordsmith and comedic genius - as his shows "Open All Hours" and "Porridge" demonstrate. If you ever get your hands on one of his monologue sketches for "The Two Ronnies" you will see his brilliance amply demonstrated. 😂😂

[@irresistablejewel]

Credit where credit's due: the "Two Ronnies" did have a team of skilled writers, among them four of "Monty Python" and Spike Milligan (if you want a good laugh, his lifetime achievement award ceremony should amuse you). No doubt Barker was a skilled writer and comedian; who loved complex word play; parodied "the establishment" and included some "seaside postcard" (smutty) humor. It was Corbett who was famous for his monologue, usually just a simple joke where he kept getting distracted and going off on tangents; also skilled at absurdist humor, with great comic timing. I view them as equal partners and "edgier" than another "national institution" Morecambe and Wise. Luckily the BBC kept their work intact (all 12 seasons); their serial stories like: Death Can Be Fatal (1975) The Phantom Raspberry Blower of Old London Town (1976); The Worm That Turned (1980) etc... were pretty surreal. I agree with you, they were "brilliance amply demonstrated"; part of a transition between "music hall humor" and "alternative comedy", attracting millions of viewers (Sat 7pm). Geniuses.

This was a time in History when British comedy was at it's peak. I agree these two had a magic between them that is artistic and extremely rare.

Dr. Anonymous was my favourite though I have never found it online anywhere. Ronnie Barker is talking about diagnosing yourself because if you are sick he doesn't want you coming into a drafty old surgery and then infecting everyone else, especially him then he stands next to a chart of a human body and shows how you can do it. He points to the stomach and says "A pain here will be due to this drawing pin," then points to the left hip of the diagram and says, "while a pain here means your wallet is too full and I can certainly help you there." Lots of other good bits too but those lines are my best. The Two Ronnies were great comedians and the show was basically a collection of Vaudeville stage acts but as a TV show.
