4.0 out of 5 stars VINTAGE TOMMY, 26 Dec 2001
By Karl Tiedemann (New York, USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This splendid tape stands apart from all the other Tommy Cooper compilations that I know of in that a) it consists of complete episodes of programs, rather than clips, b) the material is all from the 1960s, and c) the bulk of the running time has T.C. performing in the context of sketches, rather than doing standup. So we get to see Tommy, unedited, in his peak period, interacting with other performers in a variety of situations. (I'm probably in a minority, but I most enjoy watching him reacting to others, fully utilizing the wonderful face that, as Spike Milligan once said, "was like a cry for help.")

Despite the fact that some of this material is underwritten, and almost all of it underrehearsed (a Cooper hallmark, one gathers), this tape has many grand moments, and Tommy's wonderful energy comes through at all times (in sharp contrast to those videos compiled primarily fom his declining years.) True, the kinescopes (aka telerecordings) aren't in the best of shape, but that's a small price to pay to be able to see such great stuff.
