    comedy tastes change over time, but back then M&W were great fun. the 2 ronnies even better.

    Two very funny men !. Good wholesome FAMILY fun no smut,or bad language. Sadly missed TV will never be the same. I would love to hear which sketches people love the most, my personal favourite was with Shirley Bassey with the boots on the stairs.Sheer comic genious.

    They were the best - ok they could be a bit hoaky sometimes but when they were on form , NO-onE can get near them. My 8yr old son loves them.. Xmas is not the same without them . I bought the Xmas Specials DVD and can only watch 1 at a times cos I get a headache from laughing so much.
    I miss them .. Thank Goodness for DVD !!! Read some of the books about them .. they will open up a whole new side to them both.
    Comedy today - RUBBISH The Des O'conner sketch was the best ...

    M&S were overrated & not a patch on 2 Ronnies(sketches in flat could put an insomniac to sleep)!
