Les Dawson - Cissie & Ada - The Art Gallery

[Cuneglasus]

Absolute class comedy, fantastic script also, one of Terry Ravenscrofts finest! Roy Barraclough, as ever, the eternal pro!

[mrschalky]

Does anyone have a Cissy and Ada sketch where they are reminicing about the war years? It goes along the lines of them talking about all the handsome men of various nationalities in uniform at the time. Cissy says something like "All those Czechs" to which Ada replies "I always took cash". One of the funniest sketches I ever saw.

[OddPieceLady]

I'm aching from laughing! Pure genius!

[thainice]

Just watched the same sketch on GOLD. But from 1980. Same script but with a few changes. Guess it was one of their favourites.

Ada always had me in stiches- so glad to see her on you tube- she was hilarious!

There is noone as funny as Les Dawson now.

[thisismikehunt2009]

What a brilliant sketch from 1983. Love Cissie and Ada.

[Scotsbell]

I wonder how many takes this took, don't know how they kept their faces straight!!

[Gillyyorkie]

LOL wonder who sculpted it  I dunno but he certainly wasn't short of Clay ! Priceless!

[RebelRadius]

@Gillyyorkie "It could be more" but don't go too far it might spring at ya"

[Djsp01]

He lived just around the corner from me in Lytham st annes, he would always stop and chat at the local spar shop. R.I.P Les.

[seandeas]

these two are a scream - they don't make them like that anymore. Look at Cissie, keeps fixing her bra ! As for the facial expressions - I'm wetting myself.

[cottonwhiskersuk]

Sheer joy.

[varietylover]

What a scream...and doesn't this demonstrate how the so called comedians of today lack what it really takes to be a star...

[comingfrommyhead]

Pur genius.

[rufushound]

Absolutely bloody brilliant.

[xxxxRedemptionxxxx]

HAHAHAHA...god I loved these two. Happy memories.

[jpcymru]

remember used to watch this with my grandfather as a kid. how we used to laugh. comedy genuis.

[dollydog20]

Remember these 2 as a kid - absolute comedy genius, hasnt dated at all. BBC should do a compiliation show of all the Cissie and Ada sketches. Far funnier than most of the 'comedy' on telly now!

[kirkwallboy]

What a pair!

[NuckinFuts666]

That's what i said when i saw Dolly Parton ;)

[NZtegmen]

[gorlestonguy]

"If it was left to me he wouldn't have long to wait!"

[limmie77]

I really enjoy cissie and ada, pity there isn't a dvd out of these sketches.

[ptfcscott]

"Ooh, I say!" Absolute comedy genius

[dramaticguy]

Why don't they all these Cissie and Ada on DVD? they'd be a big seller! Great stuff.
