[BermanYaniv]

Great!

[b07378]

[Danthepianist]

He's so close to being a good looking guy. 

[bremen93]

Marty Feldman's face is great

[dweem2009able]

its a shame he died a year b4 i was born. he seems really funny

[DrakullKrauser]

hahahaha "... you go deaf!"

[Detectivefiction]

@TheLordAwaked Ha! That really is a good line. But seriously, did you meet Marty?

[Detectivefiction]

@TheLordAwaked You mean you weren't sure it was him?

[Barclay1987]

That guy is nuts!

[mistergrumpy11]

Um, I love classic British television too but in what twisted universe is Seinfeld crap?

[GravelGrunt]

My favorite Marty Feldman sketch! He was a genius. :)

[professortiki]

Is that Neil Innes?

[clockworkaccordion]

@professortiki Its Tim Brooke Taylor.

[professortiki]

@clockworkaccordion Thx!

[nor888vast695]

Which came first marty feldman or monty python?

[mjkded]

@nor888vast695 marty feldman. 

[galya]

not funny at all



[emorulzforever]

this is haliareous but what was the thing in the basket

[JamesTKirkCobain]

He was a pisser this guy. He was only 48 when he died.

[dkp7895]

Dirty! Dirty thing you'll go deaf! LOLLLLLLLLLLLLL!

[penybontshed]

Blimey!!

I remember this as a kid

What was the show?

[HaniiPuppy]

@penybontshed At Last the 1948 show xD

[bleblo65]

Simpatico e  indimenticabile personaggio

[rabsmiff]

Brooke-Taylor!

[GuitarBlues3]

book of revelation!

[thelosthills]

the best ever!!!

[SobriquetF1]

"I finally found him in the book of Revelation!" Peed my pants!! I miss Marty. They don't make them like that anymore. Comedy has gone to sh*t....

[einnocjoe1]

LOVED IT. THANKYOU.

[redredreds100]

@HelloWorld73013 there was no real name, he did several shows, with ordinary titles, The Marty Feldman Show, Marty Back Together Again, The Marty Feldman Comedy Machine and Marty.

[dfonzerrelli17]

The best line in this whole video... "It's a THING"!

[themeadownovel]

Does anyone have the sketch were Marty is playing the Sotheby's auctioneer, bidding for Tutankhamun's sarcophagus? It's the funniest thing I've ever watched.

[TooSweeet]

LOL classic!

[captaincnzn]

ಠ_ಠ

[OeditpusRex]

God, how I wish I could find video of the sketch with Feldman begging a guy on the street for five bob, which escalated into, "If you don't give me five bob, I shall take off all me clothes." It was absolutely hilarious, and the first truly British comedy I ever saw, on that Dean Martin summer replacement show around 1968.

[mokumhammer]

Very dated.

[alpha18412]

"I finally found him in the Book of Revelations"... "he likes owls..".

[DrakullMenethil]

3:22 3:31 3:58 haha

[DrakullMenethil]

1:26 hahaha you will go deaf hahaha >:D

[jumpdance24]

Anyone think he looks like Noddy Holder of Slade ?lol

[WeissDraconis]

Can't say for sure, but I think that's Tim Brooke-Taylor sitting on Marty's Left. The garb makes it a bit hard to determine.

[OeditpusRex]

@WeissDraconis I believe you're correct. Sounds like him, too.

[arwelp]

"Do you want that budgie?.... No, no, no - It's not a good idea for him to have snacks between meals!" :)

[lekocafe]

Marvelous! I have not seen this since I was an impressionable child. I thought Marty was one of the best! Still do!

[yetanothergoodyfan]

"I've come out without an owl"

Only Marty could make that sound so sinister, and only Timbo could look that terrified when he says it.

[geraint0808]

Every home should have one!!

[Covertwalrus]

"Bad Thing! Naughty Thing! You'll go DEAF!!!" Priceless:)

[NormyPie]

Fantastic! Thank goodness for YouTube - I didn't think I'd ever see Marty again! And thanks for posting.

[AcePilot101]

I found him in the Book of Revelation, lol.

[Frankeinstein127]

is the monsters name igor?

[fakespotter]

derp

[PeacemakersLive]

/watch?v=b9YL7Y2Bgl4

[nathanielvsindustry]

"Is it tame?" "To a point."

What a wonderful line.

[AddictedToJesus100]

Marty Feldman was a comedic genius :)

[futuristfood]

beak n hoof

[TD519]

what show is this from ?

[haugemann]

I know it was included in the Dean Martin show along with a couple other Feldman-skits.

[kyleskid]

Good to see the best comedian ever in action. I just wish I could find more videos of him.

[futuristfood]

yes, agreed. he's like an old friend.

[dharmaseed]

Well, that's Tim-Brooke Taylor next to Marty...wonder if that's Connie Booth laughing in the audience?

[Svennish]

Hahahaha, Marty är aik are. This is only understandable in swedish

[0603022362]

Its young frankenstine .. He was so funny !!!!! i love this bit i think that he really brought it together.. what a wonderful man..

[KISSMEMYFOOL69]

His eyes look kinda normal here, one just looks the other way LOL......his eyes look big when he opens them really wide. I have the same condition as him "Graves Disease" and my eyes started to look like that but Im on these pills now and they made my eyes back to normal. I wonder if Marty even got the proper treatment for that.

[TheBandkanon]

I'm not quite sure if there was medication for such a thing as Graves Disease back then. or if there was, he might not have had coverage for such treatment.

I actually had no idea medication for Graves Disease existed at all, though! I learn something new every day.

[KISSMEMYFOOL69]

Yea I think your right, they probably didnt have the proper medication for it back then. Marty was diagnosed with it back in 1961 and I was only diagnosed last year. When I got on the medication, my eyes went back to normal within 3 weeks! I was amazed and happy because if those pills wouldnt have worked, then I would have had to get the surgery.

[tmont007]

Perhaps you should have another look.

[Uniqueness05]

haha this is funny..."dirty thing you'll go deaf!"

[EliaForce1984ita]

Nice eyes

[dastan666]

great. he was Igor in Mel Brook's Frankenstein Junior

[MrBrown871]

ho visto anche il tribute, ma ke cacchio c'aveva agli occhi???

[Aearwen1024]

Mel Brook's 'Young Frankenstein'

[laculturaenlacalle1]

Grande e inolvidable, se extraña su presencia.

[RayNDeere]

Marty would repeat this skit on the Flip Wilson Show with Flip, Sandy Duncan and Howard Cosell.

[glubrani]

I was most pleased to find this video you have posted. I saw it when it aired and have shared it thru the years but there's nothing that comes close to seeing it for yourself. I don't know where you found it but mighty glad you did ... thanks

[1hlinkjr1939]

Truly the quintessential Marty Feldman in his prime!

[metemp102502]

Anyone remember the Marty routine where he tries to insure his hand and asks for the details. A classic. Wish I could find it.

[redredreds100]

when you look at crap like friends, seinfeld and raymond, i thank god i was born in london, and have marty, spike, python, goons, fools and horses, amercan sitcoms, so bla bla bla, we, so fucking bizzare and crazy, so unpredictable,

[MistaSpookie]

Cor you got that right pal!

[guruatomik]

But you also have some absolute stinkers like "Keeping up Appearances".

The USA does have some occasional bits of brilliant and unpredictable comedy innovation like The Simpsons, Arrested Development and Wondershowzen, which is possibly the most bizarre (yet ingenious) comedy show ever produced (I say probably because my knowledge of Japanese comedy is scant, but if something weirder is out there, it'll be from Japan.)

[redredreds100]

oh yes, we do, but we just have that flare for the bizzare and out there stuff, i guess you see them all different depending on where you live, have you seen any of the shows I previously mentioned, fools and horses, i think is voted best all time, but you really have to be a brit, to totally appreciate it. Thanks for your interesting comment

[cruddiestcrudever]

Reds, you're right about having to be a brit to get fools and horses, I'm half and half and I still don't get it most of the time...

[redredreds100]

that really is ashame, because fools and horses, is britain's funniest show ever, (as voted by the people) del is such a wally, and rodney is a plonker, keep watching, there is plenty that is just plain funny, Del thinks he's suave and sophisticated, but he's an idiot, the one scene, where he's in a wine bar, trying to look rich and flash, he's trying to catch the eye of two women, goes to lean back on the bar, but the bar is lifted and he falls straight through, it's hilarious in any language

[razorblade42069]

@cruddiestcrudever

As an american, I couldn't get into Fools & Horses but love Royle Family.

[cruddiestcrudever]

@razorblade42069 Yeah the Royle family is a good one as well!

[OneFIew]

@redredreds100 Please do not be so pessimistic , it is only the Blind Americans who do not see how Funny Marty was. He was Hilarious and it was a HUGE hit to English and American comedy when he died. Not all Americans are as close minded as you say, try to be more Optimistic towards those who know "MOST" British comedy is insanely funny, sure we do not understand some of your jokes, as English do not understand most American's Jokes either, All in the Family and I love Lucy Prove, We have Taste.

[Revriley1]

@OneFIew I'm american, and a high school freshman. I love Marty--and Fawlty Towers. British humor is often extremely funny because it is witty--intelligent. I'm not putting down all American comedians (Marx Brothers, Abbott and Costello were awesome)--but I have to agree many of them don't have taste. Take the 3 stooges for instance. It's all physical humor--I don't find it very funny at all.

[threestoogesfan2]

@Revriley1 You can tell by my username that I love the Three Stooges lol. They engaged in a lot of verbal and subtle humor as well, but I understand why they wouldn't appeal to some people.

I'm American too and I love British comedy and Marty Feldman especially. I have great respect for him as a performer and as a person. He's one of my heroes.

[Zombiemascara]

@redredreds100

That's not narrow minded at all!

[thebridgeofthenose]

@redredreds100 By jove, please do not put those two excrements in the same sentence as Seinfeld! It's the closest the world outside Britain ever got to comedy! Yes Brits are the best, we all know that, we all wished we were Brits, we all love and admire works of such geniuses as the ones you have mentioned, but blast, fiddle, sticks, it is a tiny island and sadly the entire surface of the Earth is not invaded by beautiful zany stark-raving mad English lads and lass.

[Tadicuslegion78]

@redredreds100 could it also be you guys can actually take a joke? and are proud to mock everything british

[ivegottaheadache]

@redredreds100 Totally agree with you. Thank God for Public Broadcasting Channel here in the states, I was turned on to British Comedies there. I couldn't name one American sitcom right now; nor probably a current Brit one; I just go for the oldies. I loved Marty in Young Frankenstein, GENIUS!

[redredreds100]

@ivegottaheadache I also loved that movie, "Hump? what hump" I'm not too keen on Mel Brooks, but Young Frankenstein was hilarious.

[kerimbaba99]

@redredreds100 you are saying seinfeld is crap?? you dumbfuck!! its obvious you dont understand from great shows...

[redredreds100]

@kerimbaba99 I am saying I think seinfield is crap, that is my opinion, for you to act so highly strung over another's opinion, is very scary, and how do you know I don't know great shows??? perhaps you liking Seinfield. means you don't, anyway I respect your opinion, but there is no need to respond like a moron, a simple, "seinfield is a great show" would have worked. But I have to say, your comment makes me think, if this is the mentality of seinfeld viewers,perhaps I'm right

[TheJomogogo]

@redredreds100

This ain't that funny.

And Monty Python is typically 28 minutes of men screeching like women for a payout of 2 minutes of actual laughs.

[redredreds100]

@TheJomogogo Well, that's your opinion, and your welcome to it.

[GroovieBuff]

@redredreds100 You don't have to be born in London to experience the gem of British comedy. I was born and raised in snowy Minnesota and we love this stuff. We are also partial to Seinfeld. Everyone has different comedic taste...sadly, many do not appreciate (let alone experience) stuff like this.

[TheSecondComingRXSC]

@redredreds100 All sit-coms no matter what country they come from suck. The only purpose they serve is to entice people into watching fucking commercials. Regardless You do realize that England has produced some absolute garbage as well right? How about this, you admit that all comedy coming out of England isn't pristine, and I'll help you locate some of the few good comedy shows made here? On a side note thank you for Ricky Gervais Stephen Merchant, and Karl Pilkinton!

[redredreds100]

@TheSecondComingRXSC All sit coms suck??? I'd say, that was a bit, no a very massive sweeping statement, then you say all but, RG SM and KP, sounds like you are very over opinionated, and if you like it, then it doesn't suck, but if you don't, then it sucks??

[TheSecondComingRXSC]

@redredreds100 Yes because saying all American comedy sucks makes you soooooo reasonable. Are you trying to be ironic by calling me "over opinionated" or are you just being thick? Look my definition of sit-coms would be shows like the god awful " two and a half men". Where pauses are worked in after shitty jokes for canned laughter somorons who watch that shit know when to laugh. Mp's Flying Circus on the other hand I would call a sketch show not a situational comedy.

[redredreds100]

@TheSecondComingRXSC re read what you think you read, I never said "all american comedy sucks" not atall, you are over your own head, talking what ever. re read al you say, and what i commented to, you look real stupid right now

[TheSecondComingRXSC]

@redredreds100 "amercan sitcoms, so bla bla bla, we, so fucking bizzare and crazy, so unpredictable," excuse me for paraphrasing but you fucking ramble . Deciphering your drivel and explaining the differences between comedy in our cultures is a waste of time since you are a poseur whose fan-dom would insult Jerry Springer. Before I leave you forever to your desperate retorts here is some free info. Cave men and Dinosaurs never walked the Earth together! So long!

[redredreds100]

@TheSecondComingRXSC I think you need to get a life, and get off here, people were just making innocent point of view comments, then you the big, foul mouth bully comes along, get over yourself, don't take silly comments so serious, and, try to not be so rude.

[juanunderground]

@redredreds100 Let me tell you something I'm from Latinamerican and even thought I'm closer to USA into the map, I feel excluded and rejected by American comedy, but with british comedy is something that makes me feel in other world. In my country, Venezuela, Marty Feldman and Benny Hill became hit because it is necessary to highlight that part of Latinamerican had a lot of roots from Europe. It happened with british rock, many people would feel more attracted to bands from England.

[vootie99]

@redredreds100 True... but you also gave the world Benny Hill... so quit bragging... (lol)

[juggHERnutt]

he got his scarf at hogwarts

[alicemoony68]

He's a Hufflepuff then...lol

[OriTheEep]

I'm surprised that I recognised this sketch. It must have been repeated a few times, surely? That memory can't be from when I was 7 years old!

Nice to see John Junkin and Tim Brooke-Hamster (sorry, Taylor) too!

[ChrissyXxLove]

this man is legendery!

[astralchylde]

Marty is, as always, brilliant, but what is truly impressive is how Tim Brooke-Taylor, a great comedian in his own right, plays such a great, and self-effacing, and perfect second - true genius. The ladies are also spot on.

[Shipskeel]

That guy who came out with the basket at the end was in the Beatles Hard Days Night movie.. he said, "I'm not taller than you, your're shorter than me."

[longinus77]

"Good Lord, What do you feed him?!"

-"Oh he's not Too particular; He likes owls."

HA!

[mrmagr]

"dirty thing you'll go deaf!"

ahahahaha!!!!

[ZombiexRylo]

I finally found 'im in the book of revelations!

Ha ha!

[alkiethebear]

pahahaahahaha

"he wants his din dins"

[BandBoxParade]

This is my all-time favorite Marty Feldman sketch. Thanks for posting it!

[PatriotsJetTeam]

It's a thing!

[fascistamericadotnet]

Unbelievable to think these series can never ever be shown again because the BBC destroyed all the tapes.

[miraan786]

hahahahah...who the fuck is this guy?

he's damn funny

[daflyboys]

Eye-gor in Young Frankenstein.

[NYVoice]

The legendary Marty Feldman!

[powerfist]

..During or after "The Goodies" (UK) series?

[bruceleeC64]

he had a great eye for comedy!

[verzahaku]

I love his accent.

[Dishmopo]

i love how he can do such a blatantly bumbling, uneducated, crass type of accent, and then just switch and do something completely the opposite. so funny.

[verzahaku]

He was brilliant :)

[metalheadsicsicsic]

Gene wilder said after doing young frankenstein that he was the funniest man he has ever worked with.

[ArchytypeNet]

Absolute Class! I Love it.

[hoss1962]

A young Tim Brooke-Taylor with Marty...

[gcos1]

What ?

[EUROPHOBIC]

British comedy being what it is, is built on innuendo-the thing is the basket is obviously doing something-when I was a child it was said masturbation made you blind or deaf.......

[ironhead129]

Indeed.

[airscrew1]

Who said that...?

[crenabog]

Wonderful! Here in Italy I never have seen the series of Marty, but he was a giant !

[EUROPHOBIC]

one of the best physical comedians ever-the bit where the monster drags him into the basket still creases me up!

And the line "Dirty thing! Dirty thing, you'll go deaf!" Fucking genius.

[misy49]

I didn't understand it, bit I guess its innuendo

[airscrew1]

You're too young to know. Go back to a pre political correct school.

[misy49]

I think I'll ahve to. Me and Dane Cooke

[EliaForce1984ita]

hahahahahaha awesome!!!!!!!!

How he can do that "thing" with the eyes???? Awesome hahahahahahhaahhhahahahaah

[radiofan6872]

He had a thyroid condition that made his eyes go like that naturally.

[aasjb4ever]

marty is hilarious!!!!!

poor guy...:(

[H3CL]

marty's so funny!

[acerb45666555]

Bwahahaha :D

[SurebrecUK]

he used to scare the shit out of me when I was a kid

[iwrockska]

I love this.

Marty had Thyroid diseasem right?

That's what makes his eyes like that.

[ShilohLegend]

I love his huge eyes.

xD

n__n

[LianesLens]

I remember this sketch. My family and I would never miss an episode of Marty Feldman's show. Funny stuff!

[Phethelee]

Glad to say I met Marty yonks ago in Cricklewood of all places! A true gentleman.

[joyteach]

I am so glad to have found this after all these years. Thank you very much.

Joy

[ssstevex]

marvellous - thx for posting this. How many people were like me trying to guess the punchline and failed?

[Scoggy999]

Geneous.

Dirty Thing!You'll go deaf!

I've come out without an owl about me.

Unsapassed wonderfulness.

[alanboy555]

its a thing

[ElvenArwen]

You have no idea how happy you made me. One of my fondest memories was my Mom and I (bless her soul) watching that sketch on TV. It was the first time either of us had ever seen Marty. Being animal lovers, my Mom and I laughed so hard we nearly fell of the couch. I never ever forgot that night and must have repeated the story a hundred times.

Can't believe I found this after nearly 40 years. Thank you, thank you, thank you.

[cruddiestcrudever]

Aww that's sweet, glad I helped you :)

[markdaviesYT]

the late actor and writer John Junkin. He is in A Hard Days night. He used to regularly be on crosswits too,

[TheOdderOne]

Sorry for my ignorance, but who's the guy at the end? He looks like the other manager in "A Hard Day's Night"

[lavverlylad]

the prequel scene to Cloverfield...

[p717]

There's a goodie in that sketch!

[ebbaby]

And I've come out without an owl about me...

[arwelp]

Thanks for putting this up - I hadn't seen it for about 20 years!

"We finally found him in the Book of Revealations!" :)

[cruddiestcrudever]

Well done! 1968 it is :)

[jimdevo]

Hadn't seen this in years. Thanks so much. Marty was a brilliant and unique comedian.

[BandBoxParade]

Super clip and thanks so much for sharing here. Any idea what year this was done?

[olivedrag]

Wish I 'ad one of 'em!

I luv Marty :-D

[ST1300FATHERTIME]

This is some really funny shit.

[graytart]

Brilliant. And Tim Brooke-Taylor is a great straight man in this.
