No obscenities, no f-word, just pure humour with no extras to shock.
That’s because they were on the telly in the evening with the nation watching. Most of these blokes were raunchy as ‘ell when they were on the road.
@@andrewlawlor7678 Ha ha.
NON-SEQUITUR a statement having little or no relevance to what preceded it
(Collins English Dictionary)
And 90% of the jokes are terrible. And I didn't need to add the F***ing before terrible
Fantastic. Thank u for taking me back to the good old days.💋💋💋💚💚
Excellent. Especially love Ken Goodwin.
Yes Ken was great & Charlie Williams, Hay No!!! Settle down na!
Lots of negative and offended people here, remember most of these comics started in Working mens clubs in the North, where there was no nonsense or airs and graces.
Charlie Williams did more for race relations then any of the Inclusivity/ diversity on any TV advert today.
People may think this is rude but it broke down more barriers then it made.
Because diversity and inclusivity only happens on adverts 🤔
Thank you so much, God bless you and your loved ones!
I have to watch these & programs from this era as they make you laugh. TV nowadays is just so DULL. I watched Xmas version of Spitting Image tonight & in comparison to the 80’s version, I don’t know why they bother…
I thought the Jürgen Klopp sketches were funny though, I must agree the old spitting image was a lot better.
@@Eleventhearlofmars For me, the political satire in the 80’s was made funny but then again, it was a time when I didn’t think the left & right were at each other like they seem to be now. Now I know there was the Poll Tax & Arthur Scargill & the miners strike. However, it seems that they would fight over semi trivial things now, so the political satire is just not as funny… We were a happier country in the 80’s. Most of us were in or from the same boat & I don’t mean the SS Empire Windrush….
I’d almost forgotten just how many regional accents that were common place just a few years back. A bygone era indeed.
How do you mean? There’s still the same regional accents around.
@@brianconway100 I reckon mr snot is right. I'm 66 now, so there's no chance of me moving "an inch". But the young un's, not so sure. Death will come first for me, which i do'nt give a monkeys about. Enjoy ya time, whilst ya here, we only have one go at it. x
@@blackbob3358 Admittedly there are quite a few more foreign accents nowadays, but there are still as many regional accents also (at the moment).
I am from the Black Country and still people insult me by thinking I am from Brumigum or Birmingham as the BBC say
@@brianconway100 not as strong, all for a general audience - this stuff long before, buying DVD
Russ Abbot. The only person other than my own late mother, who I ever heard sing the old Scottish refrain "Ye Canny Shove Yer Granny Off A Bus.." (Which my mum always assured me was a singalong when the Scottish were taking their annual coach trip to Portobello or other nearby coastal areas.
Aye, good nights were had in Portabello. Built the ASDA there, for good or bad. Could tell ya some tales, of a night, most good. Not all of them. Over all, fond memories of a 20 year old.......experiencing "wising up" I suppose. We've all had to do it.
Wonderful!! Funny men with great personalities! Loved them all.
The comedians it used to be on every Saturday in the 70's used to watch it every week, that is going back when we had comedians and snowflakes didn't get offended about every little thing because people actually had a life.
No-one has been arrested this century just for their jokes as happened to George Carlin and Lenny Bruce and Mae West and Richard Pryor, among others…. Many comedians were arrested for things they said on stage in the last century that offended audience members. Check for yourself, you couldn’t be more wrong.
I listen to standup daily and frequently attend live events, comedians are still saying outrageous things and NOBODY is being arrested for offending people as happened in the past.
There were no snowflakes in the '70's , we all had a sense of humor
@@johnruby147 1972: George Carlin arrested in Milwaukee for using foul language on stage. 1974: Richard Pryor arrested in Virginia for a performance with “obscene language”.
Even in the 1960’s people were snowflakes, Lenny Bruce was arrested 4 times in the ‘60s after swearing on stage. Mae West imprisoned in 1927 for using foul language on stage.
Even the vaudeville comedian Walter Kelly. A news article in 1903 wrote about the death of comedy because audience members were taking offence.
@@justinafrika7860 All those cases you cite were in America. The original comment was referring to Britain. Different countries, different rules.
@@justinafrika7860 reminds me of graffiti that was uncovered in Pompeii. It roughly translated to children don't have as much respect for their elders these days.
Every generation thinks they are unique. It was ever thus.
I loved The Comedians when it was on every Saturday night in the 1970s. I was just a school boy and I never missed it. I will soon be 61 and the comedians back in those days were head and shoulders above any of today's comedians. I loved them all but my favourite was Ken Goodwin. He had me rolling on the floor with laughter. 😂
What’s the difference between these comedians and the modern lot. Oh yea, they’re FUNNY.
nope, they were on telly, but not funny even back then to me
@@billpugh58 Each to his own. They were very funny to me most of the time, not always, but most of the time.
@@billpugh58 you need to pop out and try and find a sense of humour
Political correction has ruined joke telling.
@@billpugh58 yes you're right, and it's nothing to do with political correctness. They just weren't funny
Absolute fucking class humour, massive influence on me as a daft 8 yr old Yorkshire lass making me mates laugh 😂🤣😂🤣
I wish somebody would have influenced you on knowing how to act like a lady, do you not realise how swearing like that immediately convinces anybody reading these comments what kind of woman you are, any man taking you out would be totally embarrassed as soon as you open your mouth, I'm no prude,but come on love, think before you speak.
Bit of class you are eh.? I bet your fellas proud taking you somewhere special with a mouth like that, why?.
Ken Goodwin has me in stitches 🤣
Amazing funny man , still missed .
Towers above everyone here.
Great days classic comedy loved them all could tell jokes better than now some comics have nothing on them now had to work hard then and do the clubs to get there 😀
Comedians don't really tell 'jokes' these days. It's old hat, uninteresting and has no value. Plus many of the 'jokes' from this period were racist, sexist and childish.
@@ardakolimsky7107 still some good ones now but can't say anything now with out some one takein afence at anything
@@raymondvaughan6262 I agree, cancel culture is ridiculous.
Artists need to be free to say what they want in order to speak truth to power. But therein lies the rub.
The best contemporary comedians attack those with overweening power; but many of the comedians of the 70s attacked those _without_ power: immigrants, women; people with intellectual and physical disabilities.
If you laugh at these jokes....
@@ardakolimsky7107 that was the times then all race of people joked about each other no one took any notice
You see. The UK used to be able to laugh without some woke snowflakes getting offended. What a shame so called comedians of today can’t be funny.
They can all be found on dave, they are too scared to be funny
Would you be offended if i called you thick, thicko?
See, it works both ways.
@@cycleSCUBA no because I can laugh at your very lame put down. But not being a snowflake woke. I won’t call the cops and start crying 😀
yeah brexit has killed humour and split the country forever.
Totally agreed.
Charlie Williams and ken Goodwin in a class off there own world class saw Charlie a few times in person great fella
classic, loved watching "The Comedians" back in the day
Bring these repeats back better than the modern day comics
Thank you for your comments & totally agree. All the best for the New Year.
Some laugh at anything now this is classic comedy only a few good comics now jokes style and hard work and doing clubs made these people
Can’t beat the comedians from back in the day timeless 😂👌👌
These guys used to be on "The Comedians" in Australia. Ken Goodwin had us in stitches so much that we never heard the punchline!..
thanks for posting, reminded me of the days when you could have a laugh and the comediens wernt hung up on being pc, people were much more easy going then and didn't take everything so seriously as now,
Yeah. The good old days when Manning could call a person from any part of South Asia a P*ki
@@garethjenkins6273 People still call a P*ki a P*ki nowadays anyway.
Remember watching this and Wheel Tappers and Shunters Club at my Grandmother's on a Saturday night. Bernard Manning at his best. Weird watching Russ Abbott and Jim Bowen were around as early as this. Also the days of " Love thigh Neighbour" maybe not PC these days but at least they took the micky out of each other. Scripts were funny without any swearing just great writing by legend Barry Cryer in the main. Remember Charlie Williams on "The Golden Shot" and Mike Reid on kids programme "Run Around" way before "East enders". Sadly shows how things have changed. Doubt I would be allowed to watch with my late Grandmother these days!
Excellent show, it is amazing that the club was a very well designed set
Brought back fond memories, thank you xxx
Great comedy with no bad language unlike todays so called comedians, who insist in using the 'F' word to get you to laugh...
Bet you are great company
They didn't swear on TV; many of them swore like troopers having a bad day in their live shows. Remember their main performance circuit back then was working mens' clubs (not church halls). The big difference now is what is allowed on TV: eg. compare Graham Norton Show to Parkinson re: swearing.
yeah but they loved a bit of racism, homophobia or putting women down. by the way, never heard of David Mitchell, Tim Vine, Sandi Togsvik and many other who dont swear to be funny?
@@billpugh58 David Mitchell _is_ funny.
How true.
22:35 had me in stitches, couldn't stop laughing. Love these old comics.
This is absolutely brilliant
Brought memories back. When comedians were comedians with humor and laughter and could say anything they like people thought nothing more. I'm afraid those days have gone we're in a politically incorrect society. I will sub and give thumbs matey
Laughing now.True comedians those were the days.
I wish Russ had his own show it was brilliant.
Of course he had his own show, and yes, it was brilliant.
To be honest, I thought he was better as the drummer/funny guy in The Black Abbotts.
My wife and I went to see a taping of Russ Abbott’s Mad House at the BBC at Wood Lane, in London. She was given the tickets by her boss, who won them in some charity tombola. The show was crap - no wonder her boss gave the tickets away - hardly anyone laughed.
The only redeeming thing was that at the end, Russ Abbott came back on stage, apologised that the night’s show wasn’t great, and thanked the audience for laughing and applauding as much as they did.
So in the end, a nice guy but a rubbish script !
@@venndiagram5981
I agree, saw The Black Abbotts many times in workingmens clubs in Sunderland in the 1970s they were a class turn👍
@@venndiagram5981 I've just come across this one, comedy television series and drama series etc, are just the same as singers singing songs and films that actors and actresses make some are poor some are great you can't judge an entire series by one episode, there are some exceptions some silly soap opera from 20th century or was it this century time goes so quick, I think it was called El Dorado, it also happened in the past with some series consisting of just one series, Clarence the exception Ronnie Barker, announced his retirement before production and wrapped the show up in just six episodes, I liked Russ Abbott in sketch shows and couldn't get used to seeing him appearing in Last Of The Summer Wine
I can't believe that I used to laugh at that!
Different Times Allan.
@@RobCharles Yeah Rob, I guess it just inevitably gets old and corny. I used to laugh my head off at these guys. Thanks for posting.
still funny in my humble opinion....observerational comedy is to overused these days I love the old gags and 1 liners.
Brilliant 👌 better than today's arseholes
Lol!
Just not the case, in fact this is really poor material most of which isn’t funny at all. What you mean is you remember this time period fondly and preferred your own life back then.
@@charliecatesby3346yes, average
Brilliant! Oh my god, someone invent a time machine so I can go back and away of this contemporary woke horror show!
Today's so called comedians should watch and learn! This is nothing like the rubbish they churn out today which is so unfunny by so many.
Great to hear proper humour! Never stopped laughing!!!!!
Subbed grew up watching these guy's in the 70s great content👍
I don't understand Charlie Williams jokes but I laugh when he starts laughing.
The guy hated cheese, but he was the one making the sandwich..
My grandma loved him. He was from Barnsley, so we understood the accent. You can't help but like him.
You thick or what?
"What's that noise..?"... Classic...😂
Frank Carson: "It's the way I tell 'em!" Classic line!
Charlie Williams - they were a bit 't'other ro-ad' 😂😂😂. I haven't heard that expression for years!! 😂
Loved the Sandwich joke from Jos
Great time, sadly missed most of them.
Class! 🤘🎸😎
First saw Russ Abbott with the Black Abbots at Chesterfield's Aquarius Nightclub.
Sadly he wouldn’t get this on TV anymore it will upset too many snowflakes
Porkflake
that is so bloody true.
Brilliant, when humour was funny and not a bad smell!
They’ve actually got really poor material.
Fantastic
Thank you for your comment.
Charlie Williams is so funny!!
Charlie Williams was a decent footballer,Donny Rovers back in the fifties.
And a great comedian aswell mi owd cocker.
Love these thank you lad
Your welcome 👍
Very nice to see these, as the dvd set released some years ago had loads of stuff cut out.
Loved repeats of this in the 80s.
The funniest thing is the fact they all had false teeth, they must have upset a few people in the past🤣🤣🤣
I noticed that!
Everyone had false teeth back in the day!
good to see standup hasnt changed in 50 years.
That Charlie Williams is proper Yorkshire
I was drinking with Charlie Williams at the Jarvis Piccadilly hotel Manchester international suite 3rd floor 😍😍😍😍
One word. "BRILLIANT".
This is the comedy I was brought up on, clean gags. Now we have that disgusting lot that has to swear, been profane in every way in order to get a life, and situation comedy, forget it. Some situation comedians are good, but the vast majority just weak.
I just came across this, and I m having good belly-laughs. ..... Awesome stand-ups.... Thank you. Much appreciated..., Cheerio from Down Under 🌺
Thank you for letting me know. Glad you like the videos.
@@robcharlesradio I just hope a lot more people can appreciate it......🌺🙏
British comedy was the world best, most of it was performed in working men's clubs television killed our comedy
Yet the most groundbreaking comedians were Lenny Bruce and Richard Prior, who weren't "British. British comedy was the best in the world?". I don't think so. Dave Chappelle or Frankie Boyle would kick these guys arses!
Gone are the days when people could laugh at themselves.
Back when you could make fun of the gays, Irish, women, ethnic minorities and get away with it.
Cappuccino Get away with what! It's only a Joke!!!!!!
Living proof the seventy were funny unlike the so called comedians today esp the female ones
What's that noise ? Oh yes it's people laughing 😂😂😂
When jokes were jokes and people laughed instead of getting offended for the sake of being offended.
Brilliant..when comedians were funny!......Humphrey!!...😂
Brilliant senseofhumour requrired
No comedians in England like this now... England will have to get used to those fantastic immigrant comedians.
A great era no Wokeism or politiclal Correctness the jokes made the country laugh along with great comedies which we do not see any longer.
Can’t beat a bit of Bully…….
IiiiiiiN 1
The biggest difference between today's "comedians" and this lot is that in the 1970s they told jokes as opposed to doing "routines". And, yes, the comics in the 1970s were funny!
Absolutely right Mark 👍
Well only if you find racist and sexist jokes funny!
@mark Bateman
Billy Connelly act, even in the 70s, was all observational comedy.
You are surely not going to insult any one's intelligence by claiming that any of these sad sacks are funnier than Billy Connelly.
Thank goodness Tony Allen and Alexei Sayle invented alternative Comedy. (Alexei Sayle Ullo John! Gotta New Motor)
Eddie Flanagan. R.I P
Funniest comedian I ever saw. !!
Class acts 👍😂👍
I never realised that Russ Abbott did actual standup.
Never thought he was funny or talented enough
Modern comics don't tell jokes they just talk about what is going on
There is such thing as 'modern commics'. They don't exist.
When comedy was free of woke restraint
Gammon
When comedy was free of laughs.
Edgy.
Only Bernard any good
Can’t beat Bernard
The funniest thing here is the sideburns.
There was some filthy sideburns in the 70s 😂😂😂
I do enjoy this . But wish you would but all the names in 💚💛💗💜💙❤🇮🇪
You can see where Bodger Johnson got his style from.
Sent him away from the Christmas meal 😂😂😂
I grew up with this, so glad they're not around anymore.
Didn't mean to phone in😂😂😂😂
At least these guys didn't do jokes about the Holocaust. Unlike today.
Modern Comedians are not in the same league as these guys.
Don't be silly
Who is funnierJim Bowen and Charlie Williams or Frankie Boyle.... um, tough one!
Seen you on crime stoppers 😂😂😂 sorry Detective 😂😂😂
Laugh - I almost did.
What a Boring World it would be if we all Laughed at the same thing? Thank you for your comment. Do you upload videos or just go around making comments?
@@RobCharles only when I see stale humour.
@@humbleopinion1499 As I said your opinion which doesn’t bother me. Read the other reviews. We are not all the same.
@@RobCharles Some horrible accents. Good for village folk!
@@tonyroy8123 I bet your so glad you got that off your chest. Thank you for the comment. Please do some more as it all helps with the video.
Charlie Williams and Bernard Manning on the same show. We had more racial harmony when we could laugh at other.
Charlie Chestert ?
That was funny I worked once 😂😂😂😂
Vast majority of the featured comedians in this video are no longer with us.
😊😢
Used to watch this as a young kid...about 11. Was funny then...a bit tame now.
It was a flea 😂😂😂
When comedy and comedians were actually very funny, unlike todays bland boring zombies.
Absolutely Ron
WHY DO THEY ALL HAVE FUNNY ACCENTS AND TALK FUNNY. AHAHAHA AHAHAHA LOL
When comics told jokes
They sure are.
Some of there acts were sooo slow
Ssshhhh might get woked………..
Back when comedians were actually funny. Sadly, comedy in the UK has died a very long and painful death.
