Alas Smith & Jones - Series 2 Episode 6 Part 1

To be honest, I think this is the perfect episode of "Alas Smith & Jones", it's just one of these episodes that is perfect from beginning to end. But my favourite sketch is the "Hedgehog" investigation sketch. Everything is so perfect about it, the sketch has strongly influenced me along with much comedy of the 50's to 80's, so why was this sketch not featured in "The Smith & Jones Sketchbook"?

I think series 2 was their best, followed by series 3 (1987).

They should put this out on DVD as well as the complete NTNOCN series..

[nedoflanders2]

Series 3 was infact 1986 (18 Sep - 23 Oct).

[Nickyootoob]

I must mean series 4 - the one with the different music...

[nedoflanders2]

Series 4 was indeed 1987, the series has great titles.

In which series was there the sketch where Griff gets to interview Oliver Reed (Smith) and he enters a room full of empty bottles?

[nedoflanders2]

To be honest I don't actually remember, I'd have to watch out for the sketch the next time I watch my collection.

"We couldn't nab him! He's a mason!"

Priceless

How can it be a rip off when this was made some 20/30 years before Horne and Corden? They were probably something like 12 years old when this was first aired. Do your research.

does anyone remember or have the sketch where they're ordering food, and try to out do each other with a ridiculous menu?

[tommy1973able]

this is so close to the truth!it makes me wanna throw up on the world!

"On what...?!" HAHAHAHAHHAHAH!!!!!!!!!!!!

[PatchesRips]

Man, the ones I'm hoping to see again are "The Bores" ("Fish fingers...") and "Bachelor's Boiling Oil" ("When the buggers come home late...") :)

The bit "in front of the curtain" could have been an Eric and Ernie script.

Shame they always had to have so much canned laughter in the shows. Great though.

I logged into YT tonight in the hope of finding "The Hedgehog" police news conference, and here I am... so thanx for uploading!

Is it true the police beat up blacks and homosexuals indiscrimately? // It depends how many men are available... :D

[83RockaRolla]

I think it will take a while till I get that picture of Griff Rhys Jones in bondage gear out of my head :D

[technopath100]
