This is fantastic. This Christmas special was special in 1973 and as the years roll by you realise just how special Steptoe & Son was and this Christmas episode completely shows up the so-called comedy that the BBC serves up now. I was 12 when I first saw this and I never tire of it because it has it all - it's shows society as it was then - truly brilliant acting and writing with pathos, comedy and portrays life as it was in 1973. Forty four years later it stands out as the best comedy you can watch IMO. Ah, how I miss those times and television. Todays 12 year olds are on Facebook, headphones on, smartphone in their hands and wondering if anyone likes them. Looking back I was so lucky!

A highlight of Christmas Day, in the era where the family sat together to watch the only tv in the house (B&W tv in most homes) and where the superior writing and acting of Steptoe & Son would avoid most arguments over what to watch, as most episodes were hilarious, so the Christmas special would be even more so.

I was brought up on British Comedy having been born in England 1956... as a kid I must say Steptoe & Son slightly stressed me out! It was possibily one of the earliest series I can remember - so much comedy on the 'telly'... half-an-hour every evening from 7.30 - 8.00; first programme of the day "Childrens' Hour" at 5.00 (start warming the tv set quarter of an hour beforehand so as not to miss the beginning), "The Evening News" at 5.45; a documentary maybe after the news, Comedy Half Hour then ending with a film... never a break for pubblicity with BBC, not even a glimpse of a name-brand by mistake; at 11 o'clock closing of transmissions with the National Anthem and a reminder to switch off your tv set as it could set fire...

Today i don't know anyone without a colour tv and i actually gave the last one i owned away to a recently divorced guy who had fallen on hard times. The main expense of course is the licence and also, for those that indulge it, subscription channels such as Sky, the cost of which i find horrendous so never had it. I'm nearly 70 now so from an era when even a home telephone was a luxury.....now everyone has either a land-line or mobile phone.

Thank you from across the pond where the American version of this show was "Sanford and Son." The characters were black except for one dumb cop (white) and the neighbor with a goat who was Hispanic. Time of equality of the races and sexes when tv shows allowed for everyone to laugh at each other and themselves. Precious indeed. PBS ran lots of Britcoms and in the 90s, with VCR, I taped 50 8-hour tapes which I later had to re-record on DVDs. However, "Steptoe" was not shown anywhere I lived so I am most grateful to have the chance to see it. I agree you have the best oldies comedies. I know many by heart and still laugh till I cry. Thank you for posting. Please continue to make this work available on YT; we need the laughter more than the BBC needs the cash (I think). Cheers!🙋🇺🇸

British comedy from the 60s and 70s was very good - and the acting talent was through the roof! The highly popular TV show Sandford And Son, with Redd Foxx, was based on this.

I was 9 in 1973. I remember this christmas special watching it with mum dad and my brother. Loved this programme acting superb. The comedies today not in the same league. Too politically correct today.
@helencampbell20642 жыл бұрын
That's very true. Too much PC nowadays. We never get any outstanding situation comedy like Steptoe any more. We haven't got the writers.

Fantastic comedy from the golden age of TV. I dont believe for a second the rumours these two could not stand each other, they just lived very different lives thats all. Wilfred was deeply upset when harry passed away.

@helencampbell20642 жыл бұрын
@@spmoran4703 I think Wilfred had a different expression for every line he said. You often knew what he was thinking before he spoke. Wardrobe department was pretty good too. Real rag and bone men attire. The two actors didn't look dirty but didn't look exactly clean either. I suppose that was the idea.

1973 was my best Christmas ever,i was 9 years old,i was never aloud to watch Steptoe and Son it was on too late and too rude we were told but me and my sister use to creep down and watch it from half way down the stairs through the living room door.I got Hot Wheels a talking Action Man and a Joe 90 car plus loads of other prezzies.My mom had three jobs and me my mom and my sister all slept in the back bedroom of my grans house.We were poor but we never went without and Christmas was a happy magical time which if i could would return there without a second thought to escape waking up tomorrow, a sad fifty year old loser with no wife no job no house or money with one last hope that the number 78 bus which goes past my rathole of a council flat veers off the road and puts me out of my misery.Oh yeh Slade were no 1 with Merry Christmas Everybody.Enough said.

jacob freemans My grandfather, Bill Stedman was the caretaker at Barry Island for many years. He gave us free passes to all the rides, free candy floss, toffee apples you name it. Then he was the caretaker at Barry Zoo and we got to touch animals like a Cheetah and a wolf etc and go behind the scenes. Yes, happy memories. We were poor like everyone else in that neck of the woods (except the bastards at the council offices who always had the nice cars and houses and looked down on the rest of us), but I digress. we were poor but we were rich in so many other ways. We are left now with only memories. Our loved ones are gone but believe me they are not far away...... Get the movie 'Badder Santa' (there is Bad Santa and then there is the unrated version 'Badd'er Santa") and have a good laugh....

These are so good, I just saw the Steptoe And Son rides again movie on tv here, the scene at the cemetery, where Harold accidentally smashes into a tomb, .. whilst being buried Albert finally wakes up and frightens everyone away. The vicar runs off and meets Harold looking like he himself is one of the undead absolutely hilarious! :D
