I liked them both, but I did have a particular fondness for Ronnie Barker's brilliance with wordplay. 🙂🌸

Do you have a favourite sketch? Mine is Griegs piano concerto - by Grieg with Andre Previn.

I remember that. Of course Barry Cryer wrote a lot of their sketches, he was the genius.

I am still watching repeats on TV. You can see their influence in life now.Oxford has a popular pub called the ‘Fork Candles’ Ronnie Barker opened a shop in my town when he retired, and I never saw him.

The Ronnies were always hilarious, and I think they have stood the test of time better. Yet my absolute favourite was Dave Allen.

Cheers, Midori
