Jasper Carrott - The Mole - Animated

[halfwayloyal]

They should have done the same with Billy Connollys Crucifiction routine.

That would have worked well in animation.

when he shot all the apples out of his tree, I fell off my chair :-)

[georgeowain]

Good thing Bill Murray didn't give him advice.

[larkhillsurvivor]

Thank you so very much for uploading this cartoon! I remember it from when I was a kid and Ive always been a massive Jasper Carrott fan. It's a shame it's never been put on a dvd somewhere as a special feature or an easter egg. Thank you again`

[palannabb]

Hi everyone, thank you all very much for all your comments. I 've been travelling, ( I won't say were), for some time, so, somewhat out of touch, anyway, I am really pleased you have all enjoyed this classic rarity! XXX

@palannabb

[justabloke1]

Thanks for posting this up. I just remembered it out of nowhere and decided to look for it. I used to watch this all the time as a kid.

[beardedartisan]

Brilliant! I remember this cartoon (and this routine) from when I was a kid. Thanks for letting me relive that!

[Evsusername]

[CardyUSM]

[woldywonder]

a good friend of mine had this on vhs tape many years ago, i used to request to watch it all the time! so stoked its finally made its way on here!

[DanielL5583]

When I come across that mole... I'll bury it alive!

[putty1994]

boom!

[fairportfan2]

Funny, i must have heard a different recording on the radio years ago; it's essentially the same, but i remember it ending with one of the coppers saying "...oh, no, you don't want a twelve-bore for that. What you want is..."

[putty1994]

brilliant!

[denvercolt]

brilliant reminder of great british humour from a very funny comedian , sadly no longer seen in this style on our television . brings back many memories of Jasper's wonderful wit.

[MICHELINMAN1963]

awsome!!!! went to see this guy live in 1979, 1 guy came in about 15 mins after he had started and jasper just looked at his watch and said " sorry mate did'nt realise i began early" then promptly started his show from the beginning again!!!!!! the poor guy could'nt hear a thing due to the uproar!!! cracking upload :-)

[TheNeil62]

Thanks for downloading this to You Tube.

Had this on Vinyl (from the unrecorded Jasper Carrott) but sadly no record player these days.

First heard it on the radio around 30 years ago, and its still funny.

[ilikecryptozoology]

theyr laughing to everything he says -_-*

[peterpotter1980]

I've been looking for this for years. Awesome!!

[jagfan1]

A True Classic, thanks to the up-loader

[Marcobisc24]

lmao !!!!!!!

[Marcobisc24]

no way !

[lavinia1959]

havnt seen this in years. thank u xx

[misskennedy06]

hahahahahahahaha i loved this has a kid so happy to see it again

[mildredsmittens]

great seeing this again. used to have it on a vhs tape and would watch it all the time with my mates in the 80's. would love to see the driving lesson animation too if anyone has it.

[Api2Bmeanalien]

Love it, used to have a tape of it when I was a kid. Listened to it constantly on my Sony Walkman. God I'm old. lol

[lilmisspino]

Brilliant!!! Thanks for putting this on. I remember going to see JC in Bristol around 1983/4 (I was 16) and he started the 2nd half of the show by showing this cartoon. Everyone knew it basically word for word and were in hysterics. That show was probably the funnest thing I have ever seen live. I was on the floor in fits! Carrott from that era was untouchable ..... Biffer the labrador anyone?

[soundhog09]

Great stuff. I'm certain there was also an animation to go with the 'driving lesson' routine from 'Beat The Carrott', and that it was shown on Saturday Live in the mid '80s. After it had finished, Ben Elton (the compare of the programme) made some typically right-on put-down remark about it... Whose material has stood the test of time? Not Elton's, for sure...

[xhairsfordemocracy]

"Bloody noisy up there the other night"

Hilarious. :-D

[Whiskerwoo]

This is so funny, my dad was a big Carrott fan. He taped this when it as on but lost it somehow- glad to see it's on here.

[batesy200]

"i think he's immitating a lighthouse" rofl :) great video, jasper carrott is so funny

[mentalmoses]

i had the audio on a cassette when i were a nipper. this is ace tyvm :D

[jonnytightpants]

same here, it was on about 20years ago eh. really nostalgic seeing it again, nice one for uploading

[xlbyg07]

find a mole in birmingham...theyd eat it lol

[franl155]

thanks for this!! I remember seeing this on TV, whenever it was - was in black & white, so must have been a century or so ago! thanks for giving me the chance to enjoy it again

[saffsgrandad]

sounds too daft to be true doesn't it?

Years ago I was talking to a policeman (during the miner's strike it was) and we were talking about Jasper. I said "His stories are good, but a bit silly sometimes" He said "have you heard the mole story" I said that I had. "can you remember that bit where he says there was this blue flashing light" I said yes, he then looked very sheepish and said "that was me" It is exagerated, but actually true.

[palannabb]

That's absolutely fascinating, what a great story! Many thanks for your comment.

[rafcosford]

"I'll bury it alive". Just great humour.

[tumblejerry]

thank you so much for posting this, been looking for ages as was very young when I saw it on bbc 2 I think years and years ago I thought I was going mental. A really BIG thank you again

[tattyted1]

u got it

[Spindler2007]

Thank you so much for uploading this video. I've been looking for this for years andhave finally found it on here.

Again thank you ever so much for finding this and uploading it. You're a star. I've rated it 5 stars and added it to my favourites straight away.

[bert031078]

Bloody hell! I did a search for this and found it!

My Dad had this on Video when I was a kid, not seen it for over 20 years, love it!

Thanks!

[palannabb]

Thank you everyone for your kind comments, they are very much appreciated - but the important thing is that we all share and love this absolute classic humour.

}:¬) Cheers.

[BaneLupine]

@palannabb Why do you have a uni-brow... that needs some plucking.

[GalDriver1]

@palannabb I'd forgotten how funny this is. I remember him doing iton stage, bouncing around pretending to shoot the 12-bore. We were in stitches as I've just been listening to it again. Well done!

[snowpeople]

Brilliant wish i could have a copy of the video 10 out of 10

[bhvictory]

Superb!!! This is Jasper at his brilliant best!!! Why does he waste his time doing the dreadful Golden Balls these days - it doesn't demonstrate the talent he is clearly capable of.

[chelby666]

superb!

had forgotten i could laugh this much!

[Meaney]

brilliant, simply brilliant

[Neotails8762]

They don't do comedy like this anymore.

Too bad I wasn't around when it came out though. :P
