Anyone watching the Royal Variety Show?

[Housewife2010]

I enjoyed Jack Whitehall's intro and thought Harry was lovely.

Jack whitehall does a very funny story about being at school with Robert Pattison and their mothers meeting at waitrose have a look on youtube for it.

Dodo, do you remember The Good Old Days?

HW - yes I do Mrs Mills, Arthur Askey, Max Wall, the Roly Polys - haha they don't make 'em like they used to...

(I'm not quite old enough to remember Wilson, Keppel and Betty doing the Sand Dance though)!

The one about his s shoe size? :o i remember it!

Watching on +1 - The Play That Goes Wrong is hilarious. Brings back soooo many memories.

Oh gawd dodo now I feel old, The Good Old Days was one of my favourites as a kid!!!

Ah yes, I remember it well, Leonard Sachs, Roy Hudd, Ray Alan and Lord Charles, the Black and White Minstrels, Norman Wisdom, somebody doing the 'Green Eye of the Little Yellow God' monologue... all those people in the audience who got dressed up in their finery. City Variety Theatre in Leeds if I'm not much mistaken

Just watching on +1, Tiny Wanker Dancer and saw up above reference to tambourine man. That's Ray Cooper, percussion artiste extraordinaire.
I saw him do a two man concert with Elton once and it was brilliant.

Very dated, but Les Dawson was so funny, it takes a a good pianist to play just off key like that!

EN yes his percussionist is amazing I've seen EJ live several times & he is always enthusiastic!!

Dory inspired, thank you!

Yes, Ry Cooder on the tambourine. Fair play.

Ray cooper. Grr auto correct fail.

I love Les Dawson there was a thing on a few weeks ago about him very funny man Cissy and Ada are genuis

Oh me and my rd are thoroughly enjoying it (she's in pain today :( so I'm glad we sky + it)

Dd not road :o

Owl i was envisaging your whole street sat in your living room watching the RV.

Glad your DD is enjoying it.

We care Mr blue sky now
God I love elo

When we were watching ELO last night DH had twenty questions so he started googling Jeff Lynne. he started asking 'guess how old he is? Guess how much he's worth. Then he started googling loads of other slebs and asking me the same.

:o sounds like our house! I was just thinking how many ppl were on from Wolverhampton... ,

We loved the play!
