[Edjestheater]

Fantastische timing, blijft goed die oude Engelse humor. Kent iemand meer van dit soort dingen?

[Beeky633]

Perfect timing. So funny, where has it all gone. Can remember this in black and white.

Thanks.

I introduced Denny Willis to my nephews and nieces. THEY LOVE IT !!!

They try to replay the sketch and mimic Denny LoL !!!!!!

[sonnyboythethird]

Brilliant. I've been looking for this one for ages My whole family would be doubled up laughing every time we saw it.

This kind of physical comedy pretty much disappeared after Denny Willis and Charlie Drake. It requires a level of athleticism and inventiveness that would be hard to find today.

english: 1:32 is that the dutch prince willem alexander??

nederlands: 1:32 is dat prins willem alexander??

[NickvG]

[Dartspowa]

@Coenitron No this is somewhere around 1980 i think so it can't be our crown prince

Superb routine. Now this is what I call comic timeing. Brings back so many happy memories of my youth.

Thanks for posting.

Saw him at Newcastle Theatre Royal in Pantomime doing this sketch and as a little six year old I was laughing myself sick!!

[tonebarry]

What a lovely story. I'm sure you must treasure the photograph as well as your memory of him.

[celestine1961]

Has me in tears every time I watch this and brings back so many memories of my childhood. I have a letter sent to me by Denny Willis back in the 1970s....he was a lovely man and so very funny.

[tonebarry]

I also remember watching this on tv as a child. I am intruiged to know - what did he say in his letter to you? (assuming it wasn't private, of course)

[celestine1961]

I spent my hols in Babbacombe in Devon when he was in the Fol-de-Rols at the local theatre. They did 3 different shows in a week and me and my family used to chat to him as he arrived at the theatre. I wrote to him to say how much I'd enjoyed the shows so his letter was just thanking me for taking the time to write to him and saying how much he appreciated it. He sent me a signed photo of him performing The Fox Has Left His Lair.

For the lyrics, try the score for the musical 'Sunny". This musical by Jerome Kern contains 'The Fox Has Left His Lair' comedy quartet.
