Synopsis
In its heyday, The Two Ronnies was as much a British institution as roast beef and Yorkshire pudding. In a glorious blend of visual and verbal humour, each programme begins and ends with the pair seated behind a desk reading quick-fire 'news' reports. In between, "in a packed programme tonight", there are sketches, drama serials, musical routines and a rambling monologue from Ronnie Corbett, before finally signing off with their famous catchphrase, "It's goodnight from me, And it's goodnight from him." This DVD contains episodes from series four, originally broadcast in 1975.

4.0 out of 5 stars Getting better..., 6 Jan 2009
Another DVD sederies of the Two Ronnies - gosh, are the BBC taking their time releasing these classics!

I think here, the format was really starting to come together. This is the funniest series yet, with the sketches getting sharper and funnier. Halarious renditions of swan lake mickey takes and Charley and Farley and the notorious Madame Cocot. (Or however it's spelt) investigating the effects of a drug which makes people incredibly clumsy. Cue Barker and Corbett also playing villan roles, as well as shoe shiners.

Some bits are dated now(particulary the guest acts)but this duo were whipping up a storm by now going on for another eight series' and leaving us breathless with laughter week after week.

As explained before, this really is the best series yet, with Barker's brilliant word play - and absolutely brilliant sketches - the "Spokesman" one is just spot on - and of course, Corbett's armchair monologues, wandering off the point, then back again, but keeping us laughing all the time.

The magic here, was Barker's brilliance with manipulating the english language - no one has done it better - and Corbett, whose rambling monologues included a joke in its midst which was often pretty corny, the roundabout route he went in telling the joke was often funnier than the actual original pun itself. Both styles have been endlessly copied since by many comedians, but in my opinion NEVER bettered.

My only gripe is with the BBC and why are they making us wait so long to experience the rest of this magnificent comedy series! Come on, BBC - get the rest of them out on DVD - don't make us wait until 2013!

4.0 out of 5 stars Probably the best so far, 6 Jan 2009
By Mr. P. D. Humphreys "peedurr" (Swindon, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Lovely stuff! There are some all-time classic sketches here, for example 'Swedish Made Simple', the newsreader having to read a script where all 'e's have become 'o's, and the two men meeting at the party who say exactly the same thing to each other, at the same time (this must have been a nightmare to learn). As always, what makes the material great is the genius of the Two Ronnies themselves. The serial again features Piggy Malone and Charley Farley, and the closing musical numbers are now top notch. Any bad points? Well, Swingle II, who feature in each programme, sound nice, but they look seriously scary. And Michel Legrand is an acquired taste, which I have no intention of acquiring.
