Fantastic fantastic fantastico! I can watch this every week and always laugh, the expressions and the crap whistle solos, I don't want to explain, it just works.
This is somewhat a running joke in my family, lol. Someone will start singing it and everyone joins in. You get strange looks from people that don't know it though haha
This is one of the most sublime pieces of delightfully daft British comedy....... written down on paper it simply wouldn't be funny. It's all about the presentation........ never underestimate the value of daft props and silly facial expressions. Dud's hat and grin/eye movements are priceless........... a gem.
Who are the others in this video -- Pete, Dud, and?
Anyway, love it. Dud has done the 'never-ending ending' with his Beethoven piece, and this is a bit like the 'never-ending introduction', a little akin to Python's 'Brian Song'.
John Wells is behind Dudley at the beginning. The other two are Bill Wallis, in front of Peter Cook, and Joe Melia appears in the middle later on. Hope this helps !
I'm pretty sure that this is the Beyond the Fringe crew (Peter Cook, Dud Moore, Alan Bennett and Jonathan Miller) You might be right about the guy in the middle tho.
the one on the bottom right, Alan Carr

The best song ever written. Especially about Alan a' Dale. I have this on video and just fall about every time I see it. Fantastic!

I have to think this was the inspiration for the "Dennis Moore" bit by Monty Python.

@lizagerb Well, I"'m sorry, but I must respectfully disagree. "The Greatest Thing Ever" was obviously sliced bread.
