  • Milligan was hilarious, but Monkhouse was appalling, no spontaneity at all. I remember he had Bob Hope on this show and Monkhouse was crying tears as a mark of respect for a comedy legend, though Hope wasn't even funny that night.

  • We must remember poor Bob was only doing the interviewing, and lets face it, (Nobody) stood a chance against comedy legend Spike, god bless em' both I say!

  • We will NEVER NEVER EVER again see the likes of MILLIGAN, PETER COOK,VIVIAN STANSHALL or even KENNY EVERETT because of the kind of world younger people grow up in today.These people could not have thrived in the useless plastic Big Brother world in which we now live

  • i agree with you man !!

  • thats unfair,, Bob was very very talented,, it wasnt a competition,, Spike was sublime,, but dont have a pop at BOb you knob,, he did stand up where Spike wouldnt have dared,, they are both incredible,, ok,,

  • when i said i wanted to be a comedian

  • @ludocrat He wasn't a great interviewer but a very funny comedian, who also wrote for some even greater comics like Bob Hope.

  • "As I sit down, unemployment goes down by one!" A genius.

  • Fine as Mr Hell.

  • Bob Monkhouse, whatever else he was. was a terrible, terrible interviewer. "Awkward" doesn't cover his self-indulgent, total ineptitude. Really, he was that bad (I remember!).

  • "What has a comedian to show for all the years of hard work and aggravation except the echo of forgotten laughter" (Fred Allen)

  • One way to gauge good comedians with Great Comedians is when good comedians lose it and become speechless in front of Great Comedians.

    Monkhouse is a classic comedian, but next to Spike he steps down a level.

  • @kenfig - I absolutely agree except to add the divine Peter Sellers to your list. We should roll back the good times rather than proceding with this crappy nonsense
