Why I Love DINNER FOR ONE

- I intend to remake this video every year for as long as I am doing youtube. Same procedure, but a demonstration of how I will grow. Dinner For One is a short comedy film where a butler has to drink four peoples worth to recreate an old lady's 90th birthday. It's my New Years Tradition.
Originally a British stage sketch that had minimal impact that inexplicably became popular in Germany. I say 'inexplicably' but it's obvious that the humour translates well and became a New Year's tradition. It's spread to other countries as it's declined to relative obscurity in the UK as other comedy has surpassed it. It's Britain's equivalent to Harold Lloyd, Charlie Chaplin and Laurel and Hardy (yes. I know Chaplin and Laurel were British). It'a 'old hat' in Britain where other classics like Fawly Towers, Only Fools and Horses, Porridge. etc.ad infinitum took over.
I've never watched Dinner For One or seen advertised or scheduled it on British TV, it's such a non-entity in the UK. My knowledge of it is purely from overseas.
Thank you so much for doing the research I should have done 😁😆 that's really interesting to learn. 👍
I thought it was easily accessible on UA-cam but I can't find where anyone can watch it so next year I'll put in more clips. I assumed I shouldn't spoil the visuals and people could easily go look at it themselves (but I can't find a good quality one).
@@B-MC No research! Like I said, my knowledge comes purely from people like yourself who have actually seen it, I suppose I should try to rectify that. it sounds funny.
