Yep, I met him in 1981. He was a street sweeper wearing a yellow raincoat with a big walrus mustache

I bought a house in the early 90s from an old Yorkshire couple who were about to retire. They left me the contents of the garage as well and i was delighted to find in there a Spear & Jackson rake made in England as well and my word it was a good rake. Knowing this episode of Ripping Yarns i treasured that rake sure it wasn't a shovel but a RAKE is a close 2nd in importance. That rake served me well until it broke in my hands with the grain. I was heartbroken. I went shopping for another one but they were now made in China so it could never be the same.

Classic pure comedy. An overlooked masterpiece.

I remember seeing this on TV as a child and it always stayed with me. At the time, there was something about Eric’s family that reminded me very much of my own, only the other way round: I was into ancient history and whatnot and they could (and still do) have lengthy conversations about the many merits of turnips and that remarkable occasion on which the neighbour hung out her washing at an unexpected hour. My mother (now 96) still gets headaches if we’re in the same room for longer than 10 minutes. I’m clearly just a boring little tit. 😂😂

I thought further that it alludes to how normal people who are exclusively concerned with the mundane and have no interests to speak of find those who do have interests to be boring. How ironic.

My favorite episode and line! "It were always raining.....'cept on days when it were fine"

Absolutely brilliant. Perfect casting, both sets of parents are pure comedic gold.

One of John's great skills as a comedy writer was to make the complexity of his wordplay read with ease. When you think of Stanley Unwin, Ronnie Barker and to a lesser extent Spike Milligan, it reads in their voice and often sounds as if it could really only be spoken by them. Along with Terry J, one of Michael's great skills lies in his ability to plant little gems in dialogue and 'reportage' that fly straight by between the 'jokes'. A great example is at 21:40, when Enid is reading the article about the latest Eric Olthwaite Gang happenings. "Posing as members of the public..."

Comedy gold, Michael and Terry are just the best! Even the white bits were black! Priceless!

Brilliant. Best ripping yarn ever . The look on Eric's face when his sister says he's driving me out my tree 😂 Michael is such a clever man writing this shit .

Superbly clever and funny. An underrated genius series that is deservedly of the level of comedy that is Pythonesquely wonderful!

The best Ripping Yarns episode - absurdist, situationist, underdog-ist, comedic genius - Palin and Jones were terrific comic writing partners. This is utterly, utterly bwilliant (to quote the great philosopher, Timmy Mallett). Doesn't get better than this!

A lad with a passion for shovels. Comedy gold!

Classic show

We couldn't afford a fancy coal shovel. But we had a grand coal scuttle. Brass it were. With a beautiful wooden handle. Think it were oak. But it might have been pine. Lovely and smooth it were. Like real soft on your hand. And all the time I used it, at my granddads shop, it were never one for splinters. So it probably was pine. I think oak would have been darker. Though I suppose there are dark pines. If it had been lighter I think I would have thought it were pine. But I'm almost sure it were oak. Unless it were pine. Geoffrey, who lived next door didn't have a coal scuttle caus they had gas. But you can only cook black puddings on a coal fire. You can cook crumpets with a gas fire. But they taste better toasted with a coal fire. That's why we had the coal scuttle you see. We had a bucket before that, before the coal scuttle. But our brass scuttle were better than any bucket. Even a galvanised steel one, like the one our window cleaner had. I don't know if he had a coal scuttle. I know he had a coal fire. Caus i knew the chimney sweep who did our chimney, and he did the window cleaners as well. And even the window cleaner said we had a grand coal scuttle. The best scuttle he'd seen, and he cleaned Mr Sidebottom's chimney, and Mr sidebottom was my headmaster. I wish we'd had a coal fire at school, then i could have taken our scuttle in and shown everyone how grand it were. I think as coal scuttles go, it were the best in out street..and that includes the fanshaws, a real posh family 4 doors down from us, I remember all the gossip when they had a roof put on their outside toilet. I miss scuttles.

I love the covers at the start. These stories arent exactly laugh riots but the premises were quietly hilarrious and they wonderfully bring back the type of mindset and stories they were based on with suitable irony while showing deep affection for the originals.

I've always loved RIPPING YARNS , great stuff 😂
