My son went with his under 14s team to a football tournament in Europe and they were amazed to find some of the opposition kids had already mastered the static fall. From what I could see, this training technique is def. applied to kids training in some parts of the world. No joke.

Hi Lillian & Felipe, Fry & Laurie did the more recent version of the Jeeves & Wooster sitcom in the early `90`s. Hugh was the high society bachelor & Stephen became his Valet or Gentleman`s Gentleman. I think you would also enjoy it, good fun comedy & plenty of `20/30`s accents. I`m old enough to also remember watching & enjoying the original back in the `60`s, with Ian Carmichael as Bertie Wooster & Dennis Price as Jeeves. It was called (The World of Wooster) then & apparently, as with many BBC programs of that era they wiped the tapes, with only 2 episodes surviving out of 20. (Such a shame)

*Jeeves and Wooster* for *ITV* the network everyone always forgets to mention when it comes to *ITV shows,* yet always remember to point out that *BBC shows* are by the *BBC* *ITV* was the *most watched TV channel on British TV* for most of it's history for a reason.

@Daniel Gardecki The reason I pointed out it was a BBC program in the `60`s, was because it was on the opposite channel to the one most people remember now. I`m well aware of ITV`s rich catalogue, I watched most of them. Starting with my introduction to Sci-Fi with (Space Patrol) the children`s marionette program in the early`60`s, which pre-dated my viewing of Dr.Who & Gerry Anderson programs. Also, my intro to Historical dramas with (The Adv. of Robin Hood, Richard Greene), (Ivanhoe, Roger Moore), (The Adv. of Sir Lancelot, William Russell), (William Tell, Conrad Phillips). All the latter having apparently been 1950`s evening dramas, that were reshown at teatime in the `60`s for kids.

So much more to be seen... Their sketch "on language" is hilarious and also Laurie's musical numbers 'Mystery,' and 'I'm in Love with Steffi Graf' (helps if you're familiar with both her and Monica Seles). Jeeves and Wooster is fantastic, but best enjoyed as full episodes.

I recommend you watch Stephen Fry as the understanding barman and also as the well spoken barber.. Both on you tube.

My favourite sketches of theirs is John and Peter (Damn it! sketches) - there's six in all. I also like the jewelry shop and shoe salesman.

I always play games as Burwhale the Avenger!

Yes! Yes! It must be so.....! ♥

I did have a Fry and Laurie sketch on my mind...but I forgot it. One moment, let me ask our friend. "Mr Dalliard! What was the name of that sketch!"

Jeeves and Wooster is the pinnacle of their duo in my opinion. The other stuff more hit and miss.

They done one J&W, the opening scene, but more would be great.

SO HOW OBSERVANT ARE WE GUYS? :) The little kid who found the ball near the end was REGGIE YATES, of the Documentaries touring Russia and other places and won Presenter Of The Year in 2016 for that "Extreme Russia" series.

In the wars sketch, Fry was playing a London black cab driver.

Hiya Filipe and Lillian, you should react too the Blackadder scene where Hugh Laurie and Tim Mcinnerny are arguing in walks Stephen Fry finds them argueing its a very funny scene , the episode is called Private Plane and its on 4th season

first again here, Fry and Laurie classic comedy duo and especially in Blackadder Goes Forth

Love your family ,xxxxxxx,,

Strange, I'm a big fan of these two, but I've never seen these sketches before, er 1970's ? --Oh !-- I was living in Mongolia then.

They were best in Blackadder.

Is that the England football coach?

Thanks

I never found them funny, I told Stephan Fry that a while ago, and he agreed with me.

Stephen fry and Hugh Laurie are very funny and clever, but their shows are very hit and miss
