The Mastermind Sketch

[mathewmallon]

what added to the hilarity was that in most cases the answer still made sense

[robharding1957]

[Blueshark2000]

You've gotta credit Ronnie Braker for keeping a straight face during that sketch lol

[Gruntol5]

Q. What did Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec do?

A. Paint strippers.

Paint strippers is the answer to the use of methylene chloride. But Lautrec did paint strippers at the Moulin Rouge. Clever eh?

@breathless792 What did Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec do?

[creamdaddy07]

Cracking.

[EGarrett01]

This is the best skit I've ever seen.

[DeluxeReissue]

I highly recommend their Opticians sketch - their timing is brilliant. Barker genius with words, Corbett great punchline giver and funny even just to look at. This isn't the greatest sketch of all time, but I honestly wouldn't know what would be - should have been top 10 though.

[dlamiss]

not the funniest sketch of all time but easily the cleverest

[bongoboy8]

what sketch won

[cbak12sg]

That stupid Little Britain rubbish Lou and Andy at the swimming pool.

[TrueSinatra]

My first viewing ...

What was the difference between the 2 ersions ?

I love the Goodies' Mastermind sketch in Frankenfido.These never age.

[GoblinGirl]

Yes it's Tom Baker.

The Rt. Rev. Robert Runcie

Classic!

[GoblinGirl]

Do you have the original sketch without the commentators?

[GoblinGirl]

Oops, my bad. My apologies.

[bardelor]

"he is a fat man who tells blue jokes" - i had to pause the video and laugh for about 5 minutes.

absolute genius, RIP ronnie b.

[stardino]

i like what is benerd famous for that is the question and what is the differnece between a donkey and a ass one is a tained rule leader the others a member of the cabinet

[GoblinGirl]

That's "trade union leader". And yes, that's my favorite line in the sketch...

[GaiusAntarcticus]

Comedy Gold. RIP Ronnie Barker.

[RJForbes]

What is a jock strap - a nut case

Her heart may be in the right place but her - charlie's aren't. My two favourite question/answers

[08jedi]

It's "Charlie's Aunt."  But I laughed so hard when "jockstrap" came up.

[ballylongford1]

classic!

[Sadako666]

brilliant. So clever and funny.

[tomda1st]

fantastic

[lcfc4lyf2]

they got the bishop right lol ;-)

[copperangel02]

wow, awesome video!

[Sharky8500]

Much better than 'Four Candles'.

[neoncherry]

Definitely. Their timing is dead on, and it's nice that Ronnie Corbett gets a chance to shine for once. It must have been very difficult not to laugh after delivering a dozen very good punchlines in a row.

[smp32]

One of the all time great Two Ronnies sketches...it just leaves me in stitches everytime i see it.

[StevieO1974]

Excellent. They even had the endorsement of Magnus Magnusson himself as he rated it his favourite Mastermind sketch of all and included it in his book on Mastermind, "I've started so I'll finish".

[Doniedaff]

Fantastic.

[whitefanguk]

awesome

[stenort]

just brilliant, sheer class

[WelshBomber]

One of the Most Iconic Sketches of all time...Perfectly Mastered. Luv It
