Things that still make you chortle after many, many years

So, walking to work this morning listening to music at random and Dexy’s Midnight Runners Jackie Wilson comes on and I immediately think of that classic Top of the Pops appearance many years ago.
The props department at the BBC must have misheard the instructions, clip below, look out for a very large poster in the background of a very famous (at the time) Scottish Darts player and definitely not Jackie Wilson.

This still makes me laugh now after nearly 30 years, anyone else got one?

Lego Death Star Canteen

“This is not a game of ‘Who The **** Are You?'”

Spaced – can watch it over and over and there’s a) there’s all the bits I know make me laugh and b) there’s always the odd gem I don’t remember.

That and the Ali G in America talking about weed…

Some Like It Hot.

Phoenix nights.
Dozens of simpsons/family guy quotes.

Tom & Jerry
Roadrunner
Gilligans Island
Brady Bunch
Top Cat

Plenty of scenes, too little time to remember them all.

“don’t tell him, Pike!”

Many of the above & “Fork Handles” 😆 Making me smile as I write this.

Profanisaurus.

Robert Chantler’s farts during the final half hour of the GCSE Maths exam in 1995. Hard plastic chairs, an acoustically sublime school hall, and 200 boys who’d nearly all finished the paper. I don’t there’s ever been so much muffled guffawing and poorly disguised shoulder shaking in one room since. Even Mr Roberts was amused. Mrs Brimicombe not so much. Parp.

Greig’s piano concerto by Greig with him and him.

Though might have been the drunken nights at uni watching this that still makes me chuckle so much.

Wild? I was absolutely livid!

Wild? I was absolutely livid!

Also that.

Mickey’s Monkey Spunk Moped.

Farts

During the first day at college, we were doing the indtroductory round in our group.
It came to the turn of the rather attractive blonde at the front. The lecturer asked the usual questions of name, where from, etc, and then came to the hobbbies/free time question.
“I ride horses.” She replied.
“Anything else?” He asked.
After a short pause she responded, “No…. Just horses.”
😆

Just the opening music is all it takes.

Planes, trains and automobiles, the “those aren’t pillows”.

Not the Nine O Clock News, the Young Ones and series 2 of Black Adder

Frau Blucher

My Dads mate Steve telling us how when he had got home from the pub his elderly neighbour had come round saying that his wife had fallen and couldn’t get into bed. Drunk Steve popped round and lifted her into bed. Steve went home and jumped in his own bed. Was telling his own wife about it and she said, ‘Was she heavy’ to which Steve replied, ‘Yes, she was a dead weight.’ Then the penny dropped….!

and this

Some schoolfriends still discuss the antics of a prolific farter twenty eight years after the event. Apparently, the bassy bum blast reverberated so loudly against a wooden chair that the teacher in the next classroom stopped by to express his amazement.

At forty-two years old, it remains the high water mark of this particular individual’s achievements to date.

Oh and Jockey Wilson says… 😆

Mighty boosh, want some Baileys?

StewartC, >shamelessly lifted from Mark Lamarr/Never mind the buzzcocks< Jockey Wilson’s photo being mistakenly used as a backdrop was nothing when compared to a similar gaff when they returned to perform “Come on Eileen”…

The closing credits of All of Me with Steve Martin and Lily Tomlin dancing 😀

Wabbit season!

Who’s on first?

Unless it has many vegetables

Many of the above & “Fork Handles” Making me smile as I write this.

You know there’s a sequel, right?

“Och, deed you smeel that?” eminating from one of the waitresses serving me and some mates in the Bridge of Ken Hotel one night after hitting the Stanes.

I think you had to be there but it still makes us laugh after all this time.

Joss Ackland’s spunky backpack, Cake and the doctors ‘your knee’ scene from Jam.

Wild? I was absolutely livid!

Surely it’s mad?

As in:

Are you mad?

Mad? I was livid!

(Rowan Atkinson in the headmaster sketch – I forget where from)

Morph. Just genius, and the offspring likes it too.
