  • I loved finding this because I have been playing and replaying his old standup and it was awesome to see how he transformed the Family Fortunes joke for a new audience, without his Scottish burr. But the original was even funnier. "Fur! A fabric! Oh yes, the great fur mills of the north of England: 'There's trouble at the mill.' 'What is it?' 'Well, there's no fur, is there?'" Craigy at his awesome best.

  • /watch?v=RWgR-4dcbc4 Hahaha He wasn't lying about the show Cracks me up :)

  • thumbs up if you looked up the blankety blank song :)

  • He would be an awesome Grampa. Just saying.

  • Blankety Blank's host Les Dawson was brilliant, and so was Bob Monkhouse. Two British TV greats. Craig Ferguson did a comedy sketch on Family Fortunes back when he was in the UK, if you can find it it's definitely worth watching!

  • Yes! Old stand up creeping in! Nothing like old vintage Ferguson; otherwise known as Craig Ferguson 24/7. : )

  • his impression of who wants to be a millionaire cracks me up so badly!!

  • Yeah blankety blank is real...Hosted by Paul O'Grady.

  • blankety blank is real i thought he was bullshitting.

  • haha sadly nah he wasn't. The theme tune was the best part of it (which Craig sings so beautifully) and it was hosted by a transvestite at one stage...only in Britian

  • Lily Savage was class though. :P

  • @chrian09 Haha, it was totally real, and that REALLY was the theme tune!!

  • @Davidbensonxyz why hasent done ant jokes about the anime abridgeders on youtube takahata101 ,lanipator , project shadow whipofalchemy full metal traz , khenpoe, litle kuriboh .?

  • @chrian09 You bet it is. Best Aussie game show ever. xD.

  • Old recycled material from the 80's...loves it!

    It would have been GRRRRREAT if he had done that whole bit. Although when he did it back then, he had all that youthful anger spewing out behind each word--he yelled a lot!

    THAT'S AN EASY ONE BOB!!!!

    "an eagle?!?!?!?! NOOOOO! An intercontinental ballistic missile perhaps! Or even a bee!"

    SURVEY SAID "PISS OFF!"

    I really think I need to blow the dust off of that record and give it a good listen, for old times sake. *sigh*

  • yeah i've seen that too and it made me laugh for ages

  • FUCK, AN EAGLE!! xD

  • someone uploaded most of it on here but it cuts out before grans question:(.. that made me laugh the most

    "name something you associate with the colour red"

    "thats an easy one bob"

    "yes"

    "MY RED CARDIGAN"

  • hahaha.. that's crazy man.. are you a serial killer?

  • hahahahah!!!

    your comment made me laugh SOOO hard.

  • thas just wiered

  • You know, I think the comment thumbs up/down thing doesn't work quite how it's supposed to. I don't know about anyone else, but I always read the ones with like 50 down thumbs over all the other ones on the page just because it intrigues me to see what pissed so many people off. :P

    Oh yeah, and <3 Craig and his awesome self-made sound-effects :P

  • I agree with everything .

  • @Vid4Kyla How do you set it so you find those with 50 thumbs down? I can't find a filter thing, so do you have to go to the last page of comments or something?

  • I <3 Craig's dramatic music

  • hrhr, what's the smell -> must be the news ^^

  • haha he talked about the family fortunes thing in an old comedy bit he did..haha..he was acting the same way

  • good to see my posts of his old stand up show have helped craig find material to revive!

    search: craig ferguson family fortunes.

  • the chibe hash shpoker

  • This is from one of his old standup routines...

  • Brilliant! Absolutely hilarious!

  • obv he's never heard of the 12-feet wide monkey-eating eagle.

  • lol

  • The egle & fur joke was from his {"1985"} Stand up show in Glasgow. where his from. that means he is telling the truth. lol

    PS:cause its the same joke DUHHHHHHHHHH !

  • sixth! yusssss!

    8(

  • he used that last bit a long time ago in his stand up days..back when he was still an alchoholic

  • great witt but an eagle has feathers.. the joke is on you..

  • He used that family fortunes little joke thingy a long time ago when he did stand up and wasn't sober. Except it wasn't fur, it was nylon.

  • Blankety Blank

  • bob monkhouse is a famouse comedian

  • He did that act about family fortunes years ago (It's even on youtube) when he was still in the UK! It's not fresh! (So unless you were being fiendishly ironic, you're mistaken) (Still funny though.)

  • Don't dis Bob Monkhouse he WAS funny.

  • Haha, he's great.

  • doesn't he remind yo of Graham Norton

  • Brilliant. Though the Family Fortunes gag was part of his standup routine decades ago!!!

  • I am the sixth :P not so good

  • he dissed Fox news, lawls.

  • stupid

  • this man is a genius

  • oh wait im not first, dang

  • funny, ohh and FIRST!

  • Freshest act on tv today.

  • Not really, those were his 20 years old standup jokes :S

  • I like him as well. But the last bit was from his stand up act circa 1989 in Glasglow.

  • I'm not sure but I think I'm first.. I thing I'm stoned as well..
