Peter , Eric and Hattie were great . Great London humour .

Gosh! Was waiting for Sellers to make his appearance - then realized the "tough guy" had to be him! I've seen almost every Sellers role but didn't recognise him here at all. What a master!

I miss him

I think he’s doing one fantastic job. He isn’t himself, he is 100% that character!

all of them - on the edge of corpsing. brilliant!

In memory of Peter the best pink panther

i thought he was Al Pacino he was so brilliant

Many of Eric Sykes shows in the 70s were remakes of his shows in the 60s . This was one of them The Stranger. Original made 11 years previously in 1961 . The Peter Sellers part was then played by Leo McKern.

Great stuff. In memory of Peter the best pink panther.

Actually The Pink Panther was a Diamond

Brilliant 👏 👏 ❤

Eric and Hattie I was thinking just then that he played a similar character in an episode of Steptoe and Son, but then remembered that it was actually Leonard Rossiter

Great stuff

What a genius

He did the muppets tv show after this

No, that was years before this…after this he kicked it

I had no idea or intention to find out that, this was actually Peter Sellers' last role. I thought it was when he appeared as; Chance Johnson in the 1980, Rated PG comedy movie called 'Being There!'

Being There was not a comedy. Peter Sellers' last movie was The Fiendish Plot Of Dr Fu Manchu, which _is_ a comedy. Not a very good one. He fired Piers Haggard, the guy directing it, halfway through filming and reshot large chunks of the film with himself in the directors chair. It was released in August 1980, 15 days after his death. Technically speaking, his very last movie is 1982's Trail Of The Pink Panther, which incorporates about half an hour of deleted scenes from The Pink Panther Strikes Again.

This was his last TELEVISION role

What Chance Johnson did in 'Being There,' was totally impossible. Can you believe what Joseph Ceracini did how he kept him from going to school, during the 1920s and 30s?

She sounds like Smeigal!!

Sellers is doing the voice of Michael Caine.

He looks like Sly Stallone

This was a reunion: Eric Sykes had worked as a writer on The Goon Show, where he'd met Peter Sellers years before. By the way, Sellers's character in Being There was simply named Chance, the gardener; where the heck is everybody getting Johnson?

@@jmason2838 Early in the film, he identifies himself as "Chance, the gardener". Later on, when Shirley MacLaine picks him up in the limo, she asks him his name after giving him an alcoholic drink. Chance hasn't ever drunk alcohol before; when he tries to say "Chance the gardener", he chokes on it, and Shirley mishears it as "Chauncey Gardiner" ... ... much as you did ...

Add to above: Much later, the doctor (Richard Dysart) asks Chance outright, "Your name is Chance, isn't it? and you are a gardener?" And Chance, blissfully unaware of all that has gone before, confirms this with a smile. And Dr. Dysart lets it ride ...

Not _quite_ true. Sellers' last TV role was as 'Monty Casino' in a series of Barclays Bank adverts shot in Ireland in 1980, mere weeks before his death. He nearly died of a heart attack while filming one of those, in fact.

Will you always remember the time when Peter Sellers worked with Stanley Kubrick, the author of 'Eyes Wide Shut?'

It was Lolita who during 3001 told Closeau, and I’ll never forget this:

Cut off way too quick . Funniest part is when he " snogs" hattie jakes

What else Chance Johnson did that was impossible was when, he made no previous bank statements. He said; "I've never ridden in a car before."

Chance Johnson told one woman who was a newsreporter; "I don't know how to read or write!" We ought to get completely/totally shocked about this.

Ever noticed how comedians seem to die young from heart attacks!!!!!

Peter Sellers was a highly gifted comic actor. The fact that you can see it's still Peter Sellers in this piece might be something to do with the fact that they were performing in front of a studio audience, and Peter was the special guest star. He would be expected to be Peter Sellers, albeit in the guise of a Cockney bad boy.

Show me one actor you don't recognise in a role. Apart maybe from one dressed in an animal costume. It was funny, and because we knew it was Sellers.on top form.

Is this meant to be funny?
