@toresbe Yes. As Dr.Octave states, PETER COOK BEGGED TO BUY HIS TAPES! But it was, "Ooo. Never been done before...not in the spiral notebook..." The only reason we're lucky now, is that THE BBC RE-BOUGHT TAPES THEY HAD SOLD TO OTHER COUNTRIES! Sorry for the vehemence, but can you imagine how much brilliance we've missed?
-
@toresbe The thing is, Peter Cook asked the BBC if he could have the tapes if he bought brand new ones to replace them, and they wouldn't let him! That was a bit petty if you ask me. Obviously it wasn't practical to keep hold of everything, but they could be incredibly short-sighted - they taped over the moon landing the very next day with horse racing!

Trying to be of help here - yes this must be the last appearance of the two. They performed in the late 80's for comic relief. Peter died January 1995, Dudley became ill 1994 ish. Notice he looks great here so... I am guessing this bit of footage is 1992. Do challenge me on it if you know the exact date anyone. The point remains, this is the last time together. rip

@brandstifter68 Not saying it's a good thing, but... chill. Hindsight is always 20/20. Those tapes cost around 2000 quid (corrected for inflation) per hour. Imagine all the dime-a-dozen shows that nobody will ever look back on. Cookery shows, variety, quizes... you try picking the current show that's going to become legendary.

I loved these two, together and apart~ Bedazzled is one of my favourite movies.

Would someone please upload Goodbye Again's "Long Distance" (ATV 1968)? I know that it still exists, as there's a clip in "The Comedians' Comedian."
Many Thanks.

@nuddywizz I agree the BBC should put these old Pete Dud programmes on on TV seeing that they wipped quite a few them in the past. That was scandalous what they did pure vandalism there.

@andreaukok Thank God for him. I saw that documentary on BBC 4 about his life and that he obssessively tapped loads of tv programmes.

Whenever I hear phrases like "what's left of Not Only But Also", it makes me loathe and detest the BBC even more. Fucking inconsiderate, brainless, tape-wiping cunts.

It would be interesting to know what they used the tapes for afterwards-!

@DSisterson I heard they used the wiped tapes for One Man and his Dog.

@marcel911 Not a bad double act, but nothing like as funny.
