Morecambe & Wise with Tom Jones

[@janemarett1885]

OMG all the memories, we used to never miss Morecambe and Wise show especially with Tom Jones . All we have now is reality TV which is absolutely abominable. The younger generation don’t realise what good comedy we had back then , absolutely bloody marvellous compared with today .

You say that and yet a gen z man has arrived here

[@estelavicario7494]

When I was twelve, Tom Jones was in his highest point of his career. I didn't pay attention to him. Now I really understand how fantastic he is and he was. I have enjoyed this sketch a lot.

Week after week, year after year, the biggest stars were happy to come on the show and be upstaged by these two. All because they were so admired and of course brilliant.

[@blagger42]

They enjoyed themselves so much. Just great fun timeless comedy. Tom Jones just went with it.

[@justalittleofftopicbut373]

Tom Jones is one of my all time favorite comedians. He can sing a bit too.

[@soppdrake]

I met Eric Morcambe a long time ago. A big limo pulled up behind a night club I was working at and I approached to say they had taken the wrong road. The rear, darkened window wound down and I exclaimed "Oh, it's you!" as Eric smiled at me. :-)

[@MrDiggityaus]

I think this is pinnacle Eric and Ernie. Eric riffs so effortlessly in this and Ernie plays an awesome foil

[@angellicagoodson-lord7820]

WOW that's a keeper. LOVE THE SONG "TILL." WOW!!!!!!

[@colinfuidge8660]

Back in the days of 3 tv channels, no morning shows except school education and all services were off by about 11pm. Morecambe & Wise along with The Two Ronnies (and many others) were such joy and full of character.

[@philsinatra]

Three great talents - and they all knew at the end how good it was!

[@expat1250090]

Boy, could Tom Jones sing! No wonder he was known as 'the voice'!

Could sing ?

He still sings incredibly.

Looks like this thread needs a more recent comment. Great well rehearsed comedy routine, and singing not on playback !

Im 19 years old and I think that was a great part. Tom Jones such a perfection when it comes to singing. Eric and Ernie were hilarious being as dancers. HAHAHA! This should be getting more views soon!

Not just comedians but also highly clever dancers ontop of the volcano Tom Jones it doesn't get any better

[@rogerusa9696]

Morcambe and Wise were a perfectly matched pair. In a sense.the foil and the epee. Ernie.the more conservative, usually the recipient of Eric's kindly jibes, and the more serious player when the part called for it, was masterful in that role. Eric, more of the clown, was more spontaneous and insightful to the developing scene. Always looking for an opportunity to quickly exploit, he was just brilliant. Together they were pure gold!

[@matthewakian2]

So funny when they started dancing behind him. Those were the days, the singer could sing, the comedians were funny and everyone felt a bit better about things. Although alternative comedy was my generations revolution and I loved it at the time, where we've ended up is not so good. You only have to watch these pro's to realise that.

Not true. It's just that variety shows like Morecambe and Wise went out of fashion. There's a lot of excellent comedy around today in the form of stand up and sitcoms, and it's easily arguable that sitcoms today are collectively a higher standard than they were back then. We remember the classics of the 70s and 80s but there was a lot of dross back then too that we never clips for on KZbin because they were so bad. We may never see the likes of double acts like Morecambe and Wise again, but comedy is alive and well, just different, that's all, just like variety shows were different from the music hall show where Eric and Ernie developed their act.

[@anonUK]

This clip is why they were brilliant. Their show may have been variable at times (especially on ITV), but this is an example of their comedy at its best- self-deprecation mixed with gentle ribbing of the guest, then physical comedy, all calculated to bring out the best in their guest and in their show.

1971. A trillion years ago, when England was a decent, livable, lovable, admirable country. The rot had already set in, and was well under way, yet still concealed under the thick rich clothes of a glorious past, already lost for ever.....
