Isn't it it funny that only a few people caught on to this show? I remember a sketch about the elephant asking where Flugel Street was, which involved in everyone he asked destroying the straw boater hats he was selling. I also remember the song "Bibbledy Bobbeldy / That makes good sense/ Good old nonsense/ Bibbledy Bobbeldy /Ladies and Gents /Pennies are pence to me" being played afetr some limericks in the show sometimes too. I loved it all.

Oh my God!! I sqaw this EXACT episode some 38 years ago, and never again until tonight! The part I remembered was in the middle of this clip, where the big-headed character was holding up images of himself that went on and on, and the narrator says, This could go on forever! I always wondered what the hell that memory was from! Man, it blows your mind to see something after a lifetime!

It must be over 30 years since I last saw this; I always asked if anyone remembered Tomfoolery. No one had. Nice to know a few of us on this planet did not forget. I enjoyed this show Sunday Morning around 9am to 11am UK time. Them good ol' days :-)
