Customer Reviews

must have been a different record
I don't own this boxed set, but I own recordings of many of the routines on it, and I am stunned at the other reviewer's comment. This has many classic routines and many brilliant performers. Alan Bennett's "Take a Pew," rocks, as does Beyond the Fringe's "Royal Box." I've played those and several others from this collection on my public-radio comedy show in the US because I've wanted to share this with these lapsed colonists
"divided by a common language." Billy Connelly, Joyce Grenfell, Peter Sellers--come on, this is great stuff!

Only one real funny track........what a disappointment !
I was expecting real funny things on this 3 disc set ut most of it was'nt the slightest it funny! The funniest was the track 18. on disk 1 drive in...the others and disc 2 and 3 were utter crap....anyway i gonna sell mine real cheap on here soon...any takers....
