Basil Brush and the Airbed (1976)

[batbreath77]

I love Basil!

[TheRazorbladesmile]

They do seem like a genuine double act, I wonder how much of this was ad libbed, the rapport seems very natural

[iampeeay01]

I was smiling the entire time while watching this video... they are so cute... :)

[nastymonsters2]

Must be some footage if ivan doing it

[lillyjac]

i wish someone would load the Demis Roussoss clip off the DVD.

When I was a kid, I used to think B.B was voiced by Ronnie Corbett.

[prben2]

The Basil Brush nowadays looks like a cheap copy made in China.

[SuperFreddyKruger1]

[joebstarsurfer]

camp as hell boom boom

[rojblake82]

Basil Brush in the twenty-first century is nothing like Basil Brush in the seventies, he is better here in billions of ways.

[TheStraatjutter]

look at the hair in compereson to his face; its like a senior in junior costume

[Jojoseahorse]

I used to love him when I was a kid; now I live in NY and can share him with my own kids :)

[rojblake82]

This fox is the best.

Can anyone write down what they talk? I would very much appreciate that.

Also..I cannot find BB's other videos on the links above. Can you?

[tufteeandmills]

Just too gorgeous....love the teeth!

[pseudonamex2]

Wow this version is way nicer and more tolerable than the modern Basil Brush.

[countdown247]

Along with Sid James, one of the all time classic laughs!

[Kimberlite66]

[MorroccoSurrogate]

@Aptitude Uh, that's an ankh.

[simeonbd]

Its still funny!

[darthsciencit]

I miss the old basil

[kludd28]

Suddenly, the puppets from The Young Ones make a bit more sense, to a Yankee at least.

Cheers!

[chickenspadge]

Notice that the airbed even has 'Mr. Roy' written on it!

Good old Basil! It's even funnier watching him as an adult. The bit about his tail/brush is the best, but I also love the way that he calls out to his rubber duck: 'C'mon 'orace!'

[1231231you]

@chickenspadge Totally agree! The real brush is better.

[Blondey961]

Its still awesome

[deltakappamu]

"You'll get your tail wet?"

"Brush, please.... do you mind? Brrrrrusssh!"

LOLOLOLOLOLOL

There's never been a posher puppet.

[ShahOfBlahII]

@MorroccoSurrogate How about Lord Charles? Probably before your time, but Ray Allen was a great ventriloquist on youtube somewhere

[retroencabulator]
