Ventriloquist John Bouchier

Great clip of ventriloquist John Bouchier performing on BBC's ''The Good Old Days'' from 1976. This was an old time music hall type variety show back in the 70s, hosted by the late Leonard Sachs.

My goodness but he was absolutely amazing. A superb highly skilled ventriloquist. I'd not heard of him until this popped up in my feed. So glad it did. A real joy.

Hi John, We watched it yesterday - you are very good and very funny!

[@iancole931]

Funny how the cigarette would have seemed normal back then but nowadays you can't help but laugh how stupid it looks.
