A bit dated I know, but I never knew the 2 ronnies did this!

[sith-smith]

Not their best, but can't believe I never saw this. The 2 ronnies were always on our TV as a kid, along with Morecambe and Wise

:lol: Classic.

They actually did that quite well, we used to watch the Two Ronnies when I was a kid as well definitely wouldn't have forgotten seeing that.

 

[sith-smith]

i can't figure out how i don't remember it from back then or having seen in on one of the numerous reruns or someone having posted it on a forum like this!

Strange blast from the past!

 

[Grant_C]

Its actually better than Episode 2 :?

 

[sith-smith]

The effects are certainly better.

Not to mention the acting!

 

[Richard_H]

Ha - good spot. Never really liked the 2 ronnies thought ronnie barker alone was much better.

 

[sith-smith]

He was by far the funnier of the two.

He wrote a lot of their sketches under a psuedonym. Very clever & funny man

I'm a huge fan of the two Ronnies and thought I'd seen pretty much everything - but I've not seen that before

I wonder if Lucasfilm got their lawyers involved, which is why it never appeared on the repeats?

As Gary says its not their best so they may have just not bothered repeating it, I liked the Dulux Daleks though :lol:

It is strange we all have missed it. It's 1980 which is right in the middle of the Star Wars phenomenon so they timed it well :?

 

[mr_palitoy]

I remember seeing that when it first aired. The start is very Star Wars Holiday Special...

It's funny how it pre-empts things that would happen to star wars much later...

Oh my lord. Does anyone have some bleach for my eyes?!

 

[sith-smith]

I know. Terrible isn't it.

At least I can forgive the 2 Ronnies....just :?

 

[lee gray]

they show more episodes of the two Ronnies now at Christmas than they did 30 years,
Most of the good christmas stuff is repeats,

 

[sith-smith]

I only found this one because I was searching for something else

I remember a sketch they did in a toy shop, and I'm sure there were star wars toys in it. But it could all just be something I dreamt!

 

[lee gray]

it would be nice one Christmas, that instead of repeating their christmas specials, show a regular episode instead so it will seem more fresh.

 

[sith-smith]

Would be good to see them all again.

I really want to find that toyshop sketch..assuming I didn't imagine it

Love the 2 Ronnies, how did I miss this? Xmas telly has been mostly bollocks this year, grumble moan, must be old age etc.

 

[sith-smith]

It was though!!

I feel the need to see at least one The Two Ronnies and one Morcame and Wise for it to really feel like Christmas.
