Off Topic Old comedy shows.

I'm not sure what I'd think of them now my sense of humour has become so much more cynical and a little warped but I'd like to watch them with my little girl and see if she likes them.

I've noticed that she laughs when she sees people falling over and stuff like that so she might like a bit of classic slapstick.

 

Larry David's Curb your Enthusiasm is funny. He's dry as you like.

 

As for the Ham Shank stuff, Sgt Bilko was canny.
And I think the cast of that did the voices for Top Cat.

 

You're right. Some of them did.

 

Abbot & Costello, I remember watching as a kid along with Sgt. Bilko

 

Talking about old ****, its not exactly a comedy, but The Day Of The Triffids is on Sky343 at the minute.

That takes me back a way as well.

 

There's a bloke lives in my village that looks like officer Dibble, lol.
Everyone calls him that.

 

Only fools...laurel and hardy...and as for the yanks...CHEERS!

 

When he comes in the bar for a pint folk will say, 'Oh arlreet Dibble?'
'Whey aye lads man, champion.'

 

Its good. But bottom is better.

 

I haven't fella. Just googled it so will give it a blast at some point.

 

First few podcasts are a bit slow, a bit like a good series, then it just gets funnier. The fact his partner in crime is a Sunderland fan - Andy Dawson - should make it even more entertaining for you and others on here. There's a fair bit of North east ribbing and banter that goes on. Anyway, enjoy!
