Jimmy Jones - The Nun & The Bus Driver (very rare)

A clip taken from "Jimmy Jones - Live At Eastbourne" recorded live in 1980. This classic footage is extreamly rare, as it was the very 1st ever stand up comedy video to be released by any comedian! Although it was a massive landmark at the time, it is now little known that Jimmy Jones was the 1st comedian to begin the trend of recording and releasing a video. Untill this, the only way you could see your favourite comedian was to go and see them live.
This video was never transfered to DVD and is no longer available.

Thanks for the comment mate.

I've seen him myself 4 or 5 times back in the early 2000's and also had the pleasure of having a drink with him aswell.

I'm glad you commented because to be honest I thought he'd stopped touring because I ain't seen nothing promoting him lately, I.E. posters or adverts and things. But it's good to hear he's still doing it.

What a true legend, 1st comedian I ever saw too.

Thanks again for the comment.

All the best

Why's everyone calling him racist? Watch any British or American black comedian who base most of their act on joking about White folk. You don't hear many complaints then do you? why is it allowed one way but not the other?

This guy is soo fucking cool! even in the twentieth century! pow

Bob monkhouse was much funnier & didn't need the cheap shots, I'm sure this guy had good material, but like jim Davison that type of humour is not sophisticated enough for modern times.

@Guvna07: I agree but its just how society has gone now isnt it? White people are deomonised all the time but any other ethnics can say what they like about anyone. Fucking winds me up tbh.

Saw him in the late 80s and he was considered a racist sexist cunt then as well!
