"If the word of God is anything to go by." The funny thing is, according to the word of God, nobody BUT God knows when the end is coming.

I remember them doing this for one of the "Secret Policeman's" concerts with Rowan Atkinson filling in for Dudley Moore and doing what was to become the voice of Mr. Bean.

Yes, that performance was very good. And Rowan, a nice miming voice!

Somebody needs to make a documentary about the show in it's prime!

@HCShannon

 Excellent idea! I know that the channel on youtube, frogandpeach1 has a load of videos on Peter Cook and Dudley Moore.

If you search "At a Slight Angle to the Universe" on youtube, you will get in-depth info on Beyond the Fringe. Jonathan Miller gives a great interview in it!~

I've been finding a lot of old US magazine and newspaper articles from '62, '63, '63, '64, it sure had quite an impact, before that other English foursome came along!

I wore out two copies of the LP (remember those??) when I was growing up. Memorised every word. Those guys were the best!

That one's here on YouTube too, I found out! Shouldn't be surprised, I suppose. :-)
