Eric's "Jake The Peg" impression 1971

Eric Morecambe's version of the Rolf Harris classic. (Or is that Anita Harris?)

[@paulapenny9102]

Just absolutely brilliant it brings tears to my eyes of laughter and joy every time I watch them , they are icons

[@tachikomakusanagi3744]

you cooooooooooot

[@timmorgan8450]

I have Not Seen These To Since I Was A Boy They Are So Clever How They Put the ACTs Together I Could Not Stop Laughing

[@lpgibbo7463]

1:22 this is surely where Reeves & Mortimer got the idea for 'club style' singing on shooting stars? Reeves is Eric Morcambes double in more than looks I've always thought? 🤔

Oh for the return of days when we had real comedy on TV

[@meh54]

I love when Eric repeats a line that Ernie flubs haha. "What am ma suhpozed be doon?" XD

[@synthonaplinth5980]

Yup, that got me too.

[@modernwarfaregal]

very funny!!!!!!!!

[@donttakeoffname]

hahahahahahahahahahah I have never laughed so hard in my life!!

[@noname-fx6qf]

Loved Eric & Ernie. I reckon Steve Martin may have borrowed parts of this routine for Dirty Rotten Scoundrels at Michael Caines suggestion.

[@therespectedlex9794]

I don't remember that. Funny, because it was on Sky Movies all the time, in 1990.

Looks like Nana Mouskouri with a beard.

[@Grundsau47]

Good one!

[@lordeden2732]

Nana Mouskouri had a beard after the face lift

[@xr6lad]

That’s who I thought it was In the clip

[@celestewarren8548]

🤣

[@1515327E]

I didn’t know Nana Mouskouri had a beard?

[@synthonaplinth5980]

Looks like Gary Green from Gentle Giant. Edit: Wow, 4 people know who Gentle Giant is....that's about 1/3 or 1/4 of Des O'Connor's fans....

[@AD65]

Five now

[@starsky51]

I've always thought his name was Jeg the Peg

[@JamieBoy-ij2ri]

Just a shame both Eric and Ernie never found out who Rolf really was.

[@bonniemountford6963]

Hehehehe

[@mattuk56]

Wish I'd never watched this.

[@mikey99999us]

So do we wish you'd never watched it.

[@alanwitton5039]

Hilarious

[@johnmifsud2698]

Wonder if they paid Harris royalty to use his trademark character..

[@johnbishop5316]

Anita?

[@1515327E]

@@johnbishop5316 No, Rolf Harris (released from prison in 2017).

[@zanussidish5685]

I don't like to reply to old comments. But why would anyone pay royalty for a parody?

[@MaskedMan66]

"Mallet!?"

[@cousinsister69]

Unfortunately paedophiles and sexual predators abound in all types. Different ages and socio-economic backgrounds. They are legion. This skit was OK. I do love Morecambe and Wise shows. From down under 👇💜🙃

[@therespectedlex9794]

Certainly true in Australia.
