Peter Cook on So It Goes. 28.06.1976

[ss180jay]

Cook reminds me of Keith Moon in his interviews...... or was it Keith copied Peter?

[LittlPussi]

Cook was great at keeping a straight face when he was talking nonsense, but CJ nearly got him with the "dancing" at the end. Cook uses the cigarette to hide his smile and gives CJ a look. Brilliant.

[kingsnorthlobotomy]

"Not Dancing to it, no"

[RepublicOfVietnam]

He completely made that alter ego to stop Clive getting close to him

[armandsdamanhoo]

anybody know some place where you can download both So It Goes series? thanks

[vikramkrishnan]

Clive James strangely looks like Ricky Ponting

[intherein]

What a shame to the BBC that they lost the funniest thing they maybe ever had.

[L0K3]

why did tony speak through his nose back then?

[StLennyBruce]

Looks like he did acid for this interview. Check out his eyes. cool.

[johnanthonyp]

He has such a genius smirk! I've got ya! You're mine, smart boy! Cut off at the wrong time. He was about to do a fatwa!

[johnanthonyp]

This is a classic example of a' cool laid back' corporate future player versus a true rebel.you get caught out. May as well have been Ben 'play the game' Elton interviewing him. Nothing is safe vs Marlon Blandos

[kenfig]

GREAT clip i didnt see at the time ; 'midget poof' ha ha ha ha.Hey wheres the 'Pistols' it would have been perfect to have seen them at the end as well !

[jerrymander]

I believe the Pistols clip is up there anyway.

If it isn't I can up it.

[kenfig]

Cheers Buddy

[JAYROX1969]

james is well out of his depth with the legend!

[100roberthenry]

pretensoius?...moi!..

[jjmm112]

Clive James- owned..................

[goofygoat2009]

Anyone know who Oliver Phelps is? He plays George Weasley on the Harry Potter movies..he could play Peter Cook in a bio. Looks JUST LIKE HIM.

[baconsplace]

strange to see Clive James so uptight and pulling the protocol line here.Here's clearly out of synch with Cook,

Cook isn't is good shape here either the result of too much drinking and LA hotel nights probably

[Simonc1952]

Curious observation. Have you got up to irony in the book of figures of speech yet?

[baconsplace]

just an observation ducky

from a fan of both Cook and James

[MFJVIDEO]

everyone in the whole world is a cunt

[georgelambshow]

DIRTY?? CONTRAVERSIAL??? VULGAR??? LOUSY??? HORRIBLE????

oh yes - i already have it!!!

[chelseabornboy]

what a bunch of pretentious self inflated pricks all u posters are

[thereisawar]

what, you mean they can actually spell?

[lavverlylad]

Clive James, part of a media shitterati that dominated eighties and nineties TV, following their leader David Frost to ITV, is owned, toyed with, checkmated multiple times then spat out by Frost's inspiration - Cook.

[ybot1983]

thats the most accurate statement ive found on youtube he knew it was all wank he didnt need to be a careerist

[theocean1973]

the guy talking at the beginning looks like buffalo bill from silence of the lambs.

[destructivedandy]

@theocean1973 The guy is the genius that was Tony Wilson, presenter of So It Goes, regional broadcaster and director of Factory Records that brought the world Joy Division, New Order, The Happy Mondays etc etc etc

[runtburger2]

tony wilson. peter cook.priceles to great men one funny the other putting the pistols on tele when other wankers would not god rest them both

[groeslon]

"Midget poof"!!!

[spursloyal71]

i falled my english o level because of Derek an Clive (funny as fuck)

[dubzy81]

I hate Clive James.

[shame69]

What a beautiful, seismic moment. Derek & Clive and the Sex Pistols in the space of a minute. You can feel the mind prisons of Western snivelization on the verge of exploding.

[jerrymander]

Ah yes, when freedom was not compromised by largely invented threat.

[brennanyoung]

@jerrymander well the soviet threat was also largely invented - or at least wildly exaggerated - by western spooks and journalists during the cold war, but of course the cold war had the side effect of keeping the west more-or-less democratic, because our freedom was precisely what the eastern bloc didn't have. Since the 1990s, however there's no serious ideological competition, so freedom is more dispensable.

[nakedmambo]

Strings of anti-democratic scandals, imperialism, covert wars, secret services spying on its own citizens because of the obsession that they're communist agents. Yes the cold war kept the west very democratic. Or maybe just enough to lay the foundations for the Washington consensus and the triumph of the biggest ever state-corporate collusion.

[tatethompson1234]

i only noticed this cuz he mentioned on the sex pistols one

[666Todesengel666]

This is fucking amazing two of the greatest people to ever walk the earth Peter cook and Tony wilson R.I.P Peter Cook and Mr.Manchester

[lukertweek]

cwegers and reverendbuck, why not do a bit of background research before making banal comments? Ensure the brain is engaged before typing any old ignorant shit!

[cwegers]

what a lame show, clive james, peter cook, ...the sex pistols!!!! boooooorriiing

[jerrymander]

Oh dear, such people are missing the point, as people do professionally, these days.

[blatspanner]

i might be wrong,but i think he's being sarcastic.

[jerrymander]

Yes, cwegers was being sarcastic.

[reverendbuck]

No midget poof? I'm appalled.
