Pete & Dud - Jesus

[@saturdayplayer2492]

Doesn't age at all. 2022 and it's still brilliant.

[@carlT1986]

The UK has some amazing comedians these days. Nothing against them - I just think the 60’s & 70’s were a golden age with many brilliant actor/comedians. We are blessed to have these videos.

"You save the world; I'll take care of the built-in cupboards." I saw this show on Broadway and laughed so hard my face hurt, but I have never seen anyone be as convulsed with laughter as the man sitting next to me. And to this day I can't hear (or even think) the word "myrrh" without hearing it in my head the way they said it.

Ahhhhhh !!! So wistfully jealous here, that you saw and heard them live! The BEST. ❤ 🌳 🦋 ☮️ ☀️

What a script ... absolutely hysterical ... brilliant comedians glue it perfectly !!!

[@lyudmila2882]

When my American ear misses something, I put on the closed captions, but they are often off the wall. This is the best Pete & Dud I've seen.

[@prisonersforprofit]

amazing, so far ahead of its time, and holds up beautifully over 50 years later, a classic. and their ability to do live stage work with such heavy dialogue, in one take... aside from the writing of their own material, fresh and far reaching... acting on par with actors in plays, who many consider the best in the biz...

[@barrylenny2814]

One of my favourite sketches from these two.

[@stevej1154]

"Well, it's only human, int it?" What a great line, in a sketch full of them.

Peter Cook deserves an Oscar from outer space. I love wherever he gets his ideas from. Ahasuerus feeds, wandering, usually on less nutritious nonsense. But I forget myself, the way to eternal one-sense is through the hoooo.

[@ExodusPessoa]

This is too hilarious the greatest comedy duo ever!!!

A bit dull (Dudley, you might say)!

[@RockinAtheist]

Pete and Dud, aka Clive and Derrick - brilliant comedians. We miss them.

[@petersyme7083]

Absolutely brilliant! There is nothing like this a round these days! Peter Cook, changes the script to try and get Dudley Moore to corpse, which he tried to do on every sketch they performed together!

"The most unabidable fields." I feel that. I am unabideded by my fields. I look back on them, in hopes they might grow rings. They never do. I eat them. I'm so tired of my eternal hunger I grow rings and eat my supposed father. He never looked back on Peter, and so he never was mine. All the better reason to grow rings.

Actually, Woody Allen has made some funny Jesus jokes. I’m a “religious person,” saved by Christ. I find nothing offensive in this clever and funny sketch. Then again, I’m not American.

[@cynthiaprice5784]

It's just joking we need to laugh especially at the serious

[@cynic150]

My theory is that all great comedians are just very good actors. They are totally believable; they become real people. There is a lot of truth in comedy. That is why it is so popular. The truth makes you laugh. Comedy mocks serious things and the superficiality of everyday life.

John Cleese borrowed their "Frog & Peach" sketch for Fawlty Towers, so it wouldn't surprise me if Monty Python were influenced by this sketch.

Yep, definitely mate.

Monty Python stood on the shoulders of giants. Pete & Dud, the Goons, others...Python would be the first to acknowledge their heritage.

[@EnosEverything]

Don't think so - it's nothing like any portion of THE LIFE OF BRIAN - and I've read the books on how THE LIFE OF BRIAN came about and you are way off... If anything it almost certainly inspired the PHILOSPHERS FOOTBALL MATCH which was a sketch on M.P.F.C.
