- Les & Roy as tea room ladies! Thanks boys for the many hours of entertainment you provided. RIP Les. It's a great pity these gems are not available on commercial discs. More to follow...
My favourite Cissy & Ada sketch of all time, It is comedy gold especially when Les Dawson loses it and starts laughing. R.I.P Les Dawson and Roy Barraclough you were both princes and sadly missed.
First and only time I ever saw him lose it like that. Roy barraclough nearly did in the beginning but he showed his professionalism and talent by managing to stop it
It is the truly best and funniest of Cissie and Ada . With the baby with a broken arm , hanging on for the end of the Wedding , and Les laughing after sticking his hand in Flories cream lagoon . Love it
“White Dress ? She drifted down the aisle like an ALP”. One of my favourite comedy lines of all time.😂😂
@@minkgin3370 I thought her comment that the baby was born with a broken arm as it was hanging on to after the wedding i still laugh and laugh. And Florie's cream lagoon
@@kevq761 …..Let’s face it, every other line of Les Dawson’s was comedy, but whenever I go to a wedding, whether the Bride is wearing a Wedding Dress or not, I think of…’She Drifted down the aisle like “An ALP”, & it always makes me giggle. I didn’t really ‘get’ Florrie’s Cream Lagoon”. I assume it was a desert, but i don’t know whether Les was supposed to put his fingers in it or not, & who was Florrie ?
Roy was spot on. Absolutely brilliant, Great mannerisms. A gentle touch of the hair. He really knew his craft.
Why are there no comedians of his brilliance.
What a wordsmith, what perfect timing, what fun and therapy for the soul.
RIP favourite Les.
Love the way Roy is only just about able to keep a straight face when he sees Les' reaction to 'well that's ruined Florries cream lagoon!'
I always LOVED this skit and especially Les's reaction to the "Florries Cream Lagoon" line!! he knows how naughty this line is, the dad's at home will get the double meaning and he can't control himself!!! It's like being let in on a big secret!!! R.I.P. Les & Roy.
@@garyfenlon5769 They've got to be homosexuals though. Always wearing womens clothes and shoes etc.
@@PreservationEnthusiast absolute rubbish !! Reactionary …
@@PreservationEnthusiast total nonsense ,Les certainly wasn't, he'd a beautiful wife and 4 children to both marriages, Roy on the other hand
This is possibly the best Cissy & Ada sketch there is. Les & Roy absolutely nailed these characters and they are always a joy to watch. Many thanks for uploading this.
A priviledge to have seen Les Dawson in my lifetime,he was the last of the great Blackpool comedians R.I.P.
He was from Collyhurst, Manchester (so am I)...the most deprived area in the whole of northern England in the thirties forties fifties and sixties...that why it produced great comedians like les, and Bernard manning...I'm proud to be a Collyhurst lad!
Oh,my aching ribs and jaw,lol.When these two 'corps' it is absolutely sublime.Such a treat to see this again.
These two are hilarious...of their time...two very funny stars...xx
Absolute genius.. no matter how many times i watch les.. he makes me cry with laughter.. God bless him..
Les and Roy were a match made in Heaven.
All their Cissie & Aida sketches
Are so funny & it doesn't matter how many times I watch
It's still as funny as the first time.
Pure Comedy Geniuses.
Sadly we'll never see the like of again. R.I.P too both
So true Mark .. They were fantastic …
@@lydialily846 They were probably shirtlifters though. Dressing in womens clothes all the time!
@@PreservationEnthusiast It was part of their act & lots of male comedians did it back then before it became the “ norm “ ,, they were fabulous…
@markhouse578-Ada not Aida.
Oh Les you were so funny. If I'm feeling down I watch your videos as Cissy and Ada. You are a real tonic. God Bless you RIP x
It's stuff like this that makes UA-cam so fantastic. Wonderful to see these two again, they are so funny and brilliant comedians.
Thanks for posting.
"That's ruined Florries Cream Lagoon" and Les' reaction has me in tears every time :D
i grew up watching Les and it was always a special treat to see him on tv. Watching this with the hugest grin on my face brought back great memories. Bloody hell mate, you are missed
I have this on VHS: it's on a "Best of Les Dawson" compilation. LOVE IT! "Muck Muck Muck"! They just don't have stuff like this on telly anymore, more's the pity.
I don't know who to thank most for these sketches roy and les do all them proud xx
Harmless and most wonderful comedy, what a fantastic double-act!!
Love it when Les Cracks up After Cissy says .." Well thats ruined Florries Cream Lagoon " Magical...Watched it a thousand times and always as funny as the first time i watched !!!! Sorely Missed is LES !!! Thanks for the Memories LES !!!! What a wonderful Man !!!!XXX
Because he wasnt expecting it. "Cissy" often threw a bit of improv at him.
Pure genius.
Les and Roy always tried to make the other corpse with laughter by throwing the odd unscripted line in. Roy achieved it a bit more often
Brilliant, les is nearly gone when roy mentions florries cream lagoon😂
No matter how many 🎉I watch roy and les i laugh my head off x absolute magic 😅❤❤
I've just watched this,
brilliant performance,
on a drizzly, wet, Saturday,
afternoon.Its made me cry
with, laughter. My eyes
as, wet as the, weather, outside. Les, was an entertainer, as well as, a comic.Genuinely,funny,
Loved his, descriptive humour, that added
a visual, element to reinforce his humour.
Sadly missed. Simply
brilliant!
Jokes, & stories.
what a talent these two had so sadly missed these days on TV seeing how many times they both nearly cracked up laughing is so funny RIP Les And ROY thanks for the memories xx
so true they dont know what comedy is these days
Love this sketch. They were brilliant together ❤😂
R.I.P Roy, you will be making laughter with Les Dawson in heaven
Awww just FABULOUS,, Wonderful comedy timing & what a pair …
It doesn’t matter how many times I watch this it has me in absolute stitches. So so funny & when he puts his hand in the cake I just Lose it every time. Pure and utter genius. You are both sorely missed. Thank you so much for the Laughter. 🇬🇧 23/10/20
Les has been sorely missed, and now Roy. Sissy and Ada together again.
This is my favourite Cissie & Ada sketch! Brings back many happy memories and makes me realize how many great comedians are sadly no longer with us but their work lives on.
thanks for putting this up its a damn shame all the great comedians have gone, morcambe and wise, two ronnies are no more i know corbett is still around but this comedy age was a great era pure genius
I grew up in the 50's and 60's in Les's home city of Manchester and I recognise so many of the characteristics and actions of the ladies. My mother had a few of them. Very very funny.
+copferthat My nana too. And also I was so familiar with that kind of Cissie character: the working-class woman who is more upper working class and tries to be posh. But the accent slips sometimes...
A dolly bag most of these waitresses had a wee steal.a minuture of something a bit of butter my late ma done the same thing.brilliant sketch
So happy this sketch was included it's a pure master class on how to make you still get stitches watching it even years after and how they both corpse they are so missed
R.I.P. Roy Barraclough. Always been my fave Cissie and Ada sketch
Proper belly laugh and eyes watering watchin les loosing it like..
Brilliant sketch, natural comedians, and a great double act.
These two were brilliant together, God bless them!
I adore these two as Cissie and Ada pure class. Always makes me laugh watching these sketches. Tv now there is No comparison one lot of MUCK as Ada would say lol 😂
One word response; FANTASTIC.
Had two waitresses like these looking after us at Market Rasen races - they do exist and they are absoultely wonderful !!!
This is brilliant, thank you for posting. Really miss Les
Roy Barraclough was dying to laugh LOL Priceless :)
Les and Roy used to try to make the other corpse with laughter by dropping unscripted lines in. I think Roy usually won on that front.
They both left us with such a wonderful legacy of humor. Amazing the joy they brought to the world over the years as these two characters. Sad to think they would be considered subversive in backwards conservative Right areas of our land today.
Totally and utterly priceless
5:20 - the moment Les loses it - this was the first time I saw him really laugh hard in these sketches, usually he would corpse a little bit, but this really made him laugh, and Roy trying so hard not to laugh too.
RIP Cissie. Reunited with Ada at last.
I love it when Les & Roy crack up
Les Dawson and Roy Barraclough comedy magic as cissie and Ada now making them all laugh up in heaven along with Sir Ken Dodd they broke the mould when they made ken and Les never see the likes of those two again they were one of a kind rest in peace 💟💟💟🙏⚘⚘
Perfect comic timing!
Absolutely love these two 'ladies' 🤣✊
Absolutely brilliantly funny stuff. Thanks for posting, Gorlestonguy.
Roy Barraclough passing got me herecto remember him in his best role as ada Cissie sidekick Very Funny Rip Roy
2020 in the midst of a Covid pandemic and this gem pops up in my recommendeds.
All may not be right with the world just yet but it's a bloody good start!
Classic comedy at its best! XD
Brilliant just the best 👍🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹
I always think Roy’s character is like Mrs Slocome 😆. And when they “loose” ……it the shoulders 😆
Looks as though Roy Barraclough improvised that 'cream lagoon' line. Superb comedy creations; and, it should be said, some quite superb comedy character acting by Barraclough.
ShireLad every now and they would try to make each other corpse with laughter Roy managed to fend the laughter off but Les always weakened
Barraclough was seriously underrated as a comedy performer. Yes Les was the funnier of the two and the star but it wouldn't have worked without Roy.
Best sketch ever!
"She drifted down the aisle like an ALP!"
Comedy gold from two of the finest..rest in peace...never forgotten 😢
Lmao-"was hanging on till after the wedding" :)
Les laughing and Roy wanting to laugh 👏
Roy as Les (according to an interview Roy did) always dropped the odd ad libed line in to try to get the other to corpse. I think Roy won this round, except he almost made himself corpe as well.
Fantastic!
Roy is a consummate actor and always gives a subtle nuanced performance ,creating a wholly believable character , and always keeps a straight face even when faced with a most hilarious situation when there is a minor hiccup at some point unforeseen in script remarked hereunder.
Best double act ever.
Cream Lagoon..............bloody brilliant !!
Pure genius - a world that has gone sadly.
Thay were fantastic together really miss them
Les and Roy just the best,
If your feeling down or just need a laugh to reset your mood,then watch this you just can’t not laugh especially when les puts his hand in the cake 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Priceless :-)
FABULOUS COMEDY TIMELESS ☆☆☆☆☆
The best double act ever
Brilliant. I feel dreadful saying this, but Ada looks like my nanny!
First time I have ever seen this.......Quite funny. Perhaps it is just me..Today, I find there are few current Comedianswho are funny.......
I just love the line from les muck muck muck and his expression is brilliant 😂😂😂
The most perfect comedic teaming.
Roy, is just so talented.
Comic Genius, they didn't come much better than Les Dawson.
Absolutely fantastic
"Well, that's ruined Florrie's cream lagoon" - Priceless!!
Judging by Les' reaction I'm not sure that line was scripted. They both always tried to make the other crack up during these scetches.
Closest I've seen Roy coming to cracking. How he didn't laugh all the time with Les I'll never know.
Hats off to roy,he is so clever, and a real gentelman.
"She drifted down the aisle laike an Alp" Hysterical!!!🤣😂
Watch carefully at 3:39 Roy sniggers but somehow still manages to keep a straight face😂. I think this must the most times they crack up in a sketch.
It was known that Les and Roy would try to make each other corpse with laughter during these sketches. The 'cream lagoon' bit was one time Roy achieved it
All Cissie and Ada sketches are brilliant but this one takes the 🍰!… excuse the pun. As for the push up boob and Muck, Muck, Muck …😂….every time.
Wonderful...SO funny..cheers.! x
pure comedy gold
the best at their best
Seriously life like. Hilarious they must have watched women like this avidly. Les Dawson was such clever man.
If only there was comedy about like this today
Sadly, the cancel culture mob would scream the roof off over it.
Simply Brilliant!
Two of the greatest ever can't laugh at that something wrong with everyone
RIP Cissy!
Just Brilliant! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻❤️
Absolutely wonderful lovely brilliant adorable real natural talent,,
Those were great days when you could laugh at stuff like this.
Simply a genious
Comedy genius
RIP Roy
Great x😊
