What a performance! Brilliant. You show me ONE comedian today who can do this. There isn't.

Frank Carson at his best.Love the respect from Bernard.All of them were so funny.Todays lot cant hold a candle to them.

You can't beat classic British comedy.

That's the only time I've seen Bernard Manning laughing at another comic ! Good old Frank. RIP AND GOD BLESS

Met him in Newcastle Airport one afternoon as he was waiting for a flight,got his autograph,passed over a year later, very funny and real good conversation,RIP 🙏

I literally bumped into Frank on a Golf Course - as he walked off I shouted (Father Ted style) "Its the way you tell em"!!! Frank shouted back - "Fuxk off and get your own jokes"!!

Always used to laugh my head off at Frank. Such a machine-gun delivery comic. Bless him.

Frank Carson is a legend, one of the best

Frank at his best .. Proud to be from the same town as him RIP

Frank Carson is one of my personal favourite comedian's even Bernard Manning is in hysteric's it's the way you tell em 😭😂🤣

' I wish I was out there listening to me' classic Frank,

I've just turned 59 and I loved this. Me and my mam would watch it so funny xx

Forgotten how funny this man was

Bernard and Frank were very close. Bernard was genuinely in hysterics at Frank. Bernard didn't think too much of other comedians and witnessing his joy is a very rare affair ! I miss the wonderful days of humor. You heard a great joke in the pub on a Friday and you couldn't wait to get to work Monday to tell it. What happened to us?

Club comedians like Frank had to learn their craft in the clubs. They did an apprenticeship They weren't thrown into the limelight because they met some sort of BBC diversity specification or equality quota. Back then comedians had to be one thing. Funny. Frank is definitely that.

Met him about 2 years before he died whilst delayed coming back from Portugal on the same flight as him. He basically did an entire set of the cuff to keep us entertained whilst we waited for the airline to sort us out. Lovely man!

It was the way he told them!

Mr Carson. Just top class

Frank Carson absolute 100percent funny man, top quality one of Britains finest.

45 years ago everyone over 30 looked very middle-aged. They would be shocked at what the average 50 year old looks like today.

Frank never did racial jokes like Manning, it wasn’t his style, but he definitely worked blue depending on the venue and when he wasn’t on TV. Same as Bob Monkhouse, most comedians had a clean act and a club act that was more blue.

Frank one of the best.

Funny ,funny glad I found this👏👏👍

Humour is subjective. So I'm surprised to hear so many people trying to tell other people what is and isn't funny.

I’m just wondering how that barman can pour a drink with one eye. Must have been difficult

Great comedy from the time before every comedian had to be woke middleclass or an ethnic

Seen Frank on a rather bizarre double bill with Alvin Stardust at Falkirk Town Hall late 70s. Had the audience eating oot his hands. Saw him again at Celtic Park years later doing the half time draw when he told his "Simon and half uncle" gag. 😀

The late great Frank Carson. .it's the way he tells them! lol. It's a shame they don't put repeats of the Wheeltappers and Shunters on the TV anymore, because they know that classics like this will upset the tosspot wishy washy lefty brigade. I personally would put it on more just to annoy them. Haha.... A message to the liberal lefty pillocks....this classic from the 70's is proper comedy, and not the so called "comedy" what unfunny comedians put out today. Frank along with Bernard Manning, Bob Monkhouse, Mike Reid,etc,etc r true legends of comedy, while today's standard of comedians r just basically crap,unfunny and woke. Bring back 70's and 80's comedy and get rid of wokeness comedians.🙂🤣🤠🤔
