And just SEEING Barry Wom/Ringo Starr/Richard Starkey makes me laugh Hysterically Every Time! I LOVE the bit he does with the cigarette under his lip/chin brought up into his mouth trick in "The Rutles - All You Need is Cash" - 1978. I ALWAYS rewind/rewatch that bit a dozen times when viewing A.Y.N.i.C. And by the way, THANK YOU for posting this chunk of the "Rutland Weekend Times"....And I thought I had Seen It All....Silly Me....

All i can say is WOW! Even IF Ricky Fataar isnt in there as St. George yet. I think the guy playing George/Paul-obviously not Eric- in This 1 was in "How I Won the War" in 1967 with St. John. A film thats hard to follow along with! (I think its cuz I was on acid when watching it on VHS tape years ago, Haw Hah!!!) And YES, the GENIUS of Neil Innes has NEVER EVER been Properly Recognized or Appreciated!!! And yes, I love Eric Idle too, that just goes without saying.

...or Gary Glitter catches them...

@andypitz1 And who was Dirk then?

So cool to see this! I think switching Eric Idle over to be Dirk and introducing Ricky Fataar as Stig got a great result.

Neil Innes is the one who wrote all the Rutles songs. Eric Idle only came up with the band's name and the documentary format for the film. He doesn't even sing on the songs. Eric Idle has loads of money now and Neil Innes doesn't, so everyone should start seeing how brilliant Innes is for once.

Ha - the original George character was that teacher in the original Willy Wonka film!
