Fenella Fielding returns to the Morecambe & Wise Show

[@richardw64]

Fenella was such a good actor in this skit. Ernie's plays were world renowned. All 12 of them.

[@nezzy2957]

Actress!

[@richardw64]

@@nezzy2957 usually I do say actress, but, the actors union has made it so all involved are called actors. Not my doing.

@ Hi Richard , you say what you feel ! Don’t let others make your decision !!

They were super efficient artists...what with 12 plays in a morning...and three spouts on their tea pot...and still time to frolic with gorgeous women...amazing really

Such sublime comedy acting played to perfection. Fenella is wonderful. She doesn't miss a beat & is on exactly the same wavelength as Eric & Ernie.

[@Sheerwater909]

RIP Fenella, a legend of stage and screen.

[@alexc8209]

I love this episode/scene. Everything works so well here. I loved that Eric looked like my grandad too. He wore the same glasses, cardigans and similar hair.

That voice. Was it not caused by too much smoking?

[@simonramsay6080]

Hugo Lindum it wasn't just too much smoking; her voice was like a low murmur, it's just the way she spoke as an actress! Woman normally have very dry flat voices when they smoke. I've heard worse than her and I didn't even know if she was a smoker. She still lived to 90 anyway.

[@tullochgorum6323]

Fond memories of Fenella Fielding. She hung around our house for a time when I was a kid - an adolescent's fantasy. I very stylish lady, though I mainly remember her extraordinary voice. I got the impression that she fancied my dad...

[@deanmartin6052]

Lucky you!!!!!

[@MrHotlipsholohan]

Fenella had such a sensuous voice , intoxicating.

[@billybabu]

She was SMOKING! RIP beautiful Lady and Gentlemen. Glad I lived in the days of real entertainment.

[@keegan773]

So fresh and funny. The characters, the teapot and the toaster. Classic.

[@atticusfinch8652]

This is series 4. ep.4, which went out on the 12th August 1970. Fenella would be 42 here, since her birthday was in November, and even at 10, I thought she was magnificent. RIP sweet lady.🌹

[@AMikeOnLine]

1974.Picture the scene.Riding my shiny new 'Raleigh Chopper' on a sunny afternoon in the school holidays.I fell off it thanks to Fenella. I was riding allong without a care in the world. All of a sudden i began to daydream about her looks and her voice.A crash was inevitible.but i did'nt care. I ended up in someones front garden having veered off the road.! Covered in grazes and rose thorns stuck in my arms and legs..To this day i have never explained to anyone what really happened..Until now..!

[@theonlyantony]

I think this was from 1970. I used to bump into FF in Turnham Green. She wore a cape and beautiful boots. Always that smile - devastating, even in the 2000s.. She always said 'hello' and liquidised me.

[@hughmckendrick3018]

The "plays" and preping scenes, fantastic.

[@jshaers96]

I wonder if any of this makes sense to anyone outside of the UK. Let alone someone who didn't have English as a first language. You can't help feeling sorry for someone who can't understand why people laugh at something like, 'he's perused his synopsis'. Neither can I, but it's funny anyway. Gotta love Fenella and that treacly voice; she looks like she is having fun.

[@MrDaiseymay]

famous British inuendo an double entemndre. whereas today,, the full expression MUST be spelled out, and loses it's point.

[@IAmSoMuchBetterThanYou]

@@MrDaiseymay I was out of the UK for 23 years (apart from a week or so every few years to visit family and friends) until February of 2018 when I returned to work in Leeds for six months. I've always thought of dry humour and double entendre as very British and it's a matter of pride that Americans never get my humour. Unless you say 'just kidding', they take everything at face value. Most of my colleagues at my job in Leeds were considerably younger than myself - mostly graduates who'd never worked full-time before. Their inability to get double entendre , innuendo or dry humour was baffling to me. I always thought these things were innate in British people. But apparently not. I do like a lot of current UK comedy, but it seems that we've lost something.

[@hugebartlett1884]

@@IAmSoMuchBetterThanYou Not many people in this country can even speak coherently now,let alone appreciate humour. They mumble amongst themselves,and even the married couples I see mutter away as if they are afraid to actually say something. Texting has brought about an inability to communicate sensibly. And humour has to be spelled out and explained for people to understand.
