This is the sublime Martyn Green - to my mind, the best comic light-baritone who ever played 'Grossmith's parts'. Just listen to the clarity!
Do any true Savoyards watch YouTube these days?

You got to put up the rest of HMS Pinafore, big guy. How else will I find out if Buttercup gets her man?

We are so lucky to have this on film. Seeing several great Savoyards of the hey -day of the D'Oyly Carte Opera Company. The great Marytn Green, and Sydney "Granny" Granville. This was Grandvilles only motion picture, and the role of Pooh-Bah which he was famous for on stage. And Martyn Green just to watch him dance was treat. What bad luck when he lost a leg in an accident. But
he continued on broadway, tv, and opera. I was so lucky to have met this man, 2yrs before his death. A legend.

you know, the mikado was banned at one time when some important japanese people [royalty i believe] were in the uk - and what did the important person ask to see? THE MIKADO ...
and, actually, the satire is aimed at the UK, but using an "exotic" foreign means ... also remember that this was written in the late 1800s

The Greatest of all the D'Oyly Carte Prinicpal Comedians was Martyn Green, unsurpassed in every way.

Martyn Green is very good but I liked John Reed a little better. Reed was in the D'Oyly carte versions in the 70s and 80s.

Yes, sublime and extraordinary. This film is great testament of his unequalled artistry.

Hi,
I don't understand your comment. Are you complaining about the musical or the actual culture that the musical is based on?
