Peter Cook was British Comedy from the 60's to the 90's. I miss the fucker very much he made me laugh.

Peter Cook didn't drink himself to death, he died whilst drinking.
Why is it sad anyway you sanctimonious tart? I can think of no more noble way to go, better to die funny and pissed than never to have been funny at all.

Cool. I pass the Melbourne Zoo every day by the train and been there a few times, pleasant to know i may have walked on the same steps as the great Peter Cook. :)

Best anecdote about the human condition ever ... It would've made Andre Malraux wet his pantalon. CJ & BH are very witty men in their own right, but mere toddlers beside Peter Cook's towering genius. RIP, Last of the Great Jesters!

Actually this is from Clive's Channel 4 show 'The Late Clive James' - which ran from 1983 to 1987. Like James' next series 'Saturday Night Clive', Peter Cook made many legendary appearances.

No. It's UK. Almost certainly 'Saturday Night Clive.'

Well that's all that was broadcast. As you can see it moves onto the next clip. I have not edited the end of it.

I'm not blaming you - sorry to give that impression. The topic was what would be their dream jobs: BH said he'd like to be a guard in a rarely-attended art gallery. PC's platypus tale was a glorious lead-up to the zookeeper who poked the platypus with a stick & shouted 'GET OUT!" PC: 'His job looked a bit too strenuous for me, but I wouldn't mind being his supervisor.'

Ah, I see. in which case, the buggers had no rght (or good reason)to meddle with it.
