I was picked from the audience to sit on the stool at Portsmouth Guildhall back in 1988 I think. They wheeled on a double bed behind me where we eventually ended up on. After the sketch he went off and came back with a huge bunch of flowers for me. Was very funny and great experience. Lovely man.
This is a classic. I also have this on a tape somewhere. I will find it because all the comedy on the video is funny as hell including the young ones sketch.
There has been a bit of stick for Lenny recently. It's a shame. Life has been pretty good for him and I wish he would distance himself from his remarks. However in his day he was an outstanding comedian and hugely talented. I watch him perform on stage too in an acting role and he was just superb.
Totally agree. Lenny Henry was funny years ago saw him at Aberystwyth University in 1986 hilarious. Just wish Lenny Henry would distance himself from his remarks also.
Poor Jo! She is very shy, but she has a good laugh. if I had been in his position, I would have been very very shy too. Lenny is really funny. This guy has a great voice. ;-))))
Still funny after all these years 🤣🤣when we were allowed to have a sense of humour !! ...... you see there was a life before everyone went all Mary Whitehouse and politically correct.🙄
HATE LENNY HENRY..... he totally spoiled Teddy Pendergrass for me... my fav singer... everytime I see Teddy I burst out laughing thinking back to Lenny.... so funny Len thank you fella....

Love Lenny Henry a Legend in Comedy
Still cracks me up
I've been using one-liners from this since I first saw it... in 1986.
Awesome!
I take it you're still single 😂
@@gew12 😁😂🤣😁
That’s Jo Green, who is now Hugh Laurie’s wife. It couldn’t have been much longer after that that she and Hugh hooked up.
It’s weird how I haven’t seen this for over 30 years but it’s still clear in my head. Even his full name 😅
That’s a good comic
Best thing he ever did, hilarious.
Agree not PC but so fucking what, absolutely hilarious " have you got any African in you , do you want some ," 😂
This is a classic. I also have this on a tape somewhere. I will find it because all the comedy on the video is funny as hell including the young ones sketch.
Hilarious. As we know Jo ended up marrying Hugh Lawrie and I think they are still together with three kids.
Did not know that. Thanks for that info
great thanks for sharing ... i rember this when i was 8 it still funny
Shut up you woke dick head
When it's your time, from the start, he's 16 UK SIXTEEN 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 DAMN

You know who she married? I keep scanning the audience looking for his face, but I guess they weren’t together yet.
You know she married Hugh Laurie. They must’ve met not too long after this show.
He is so good at this - without the comedy, he could've been the real deal! Lenny Henry's finest moment IMHO.
Whites made him famous and recently he said africa doesnt want white peoples money hes a blatant racist and woke twats like you haven't got a clue
@@cantagiousca5220 You stupid idiot you are confusing him with David Lammi...............are you righties this dumb?
he did this to my mum once in 1991.
omg!
Did she get a woke aids test?
...and how old are you? 😂
Amazing and hilarious
Talented gifted guy funny as heck
Only 77k views??? What is wrong with all you people out there? It deserves 77 million, at least...
Lenny has a great voice!
I saw lenny Henry live in Dublin in the 1980s. in the Olympia theatre. with my family.
Love lov love this, outstanding Lenny
classic... i have this on vhs too!
gosh,he's a bloody good singer!
Brilliant comedy.
I wish he'd bring this character back.
Still funny after all these years 🤣🤣when we were allowed to have a sense of humour !! ...... you see there was a life before everyone went all Mary Whitehouse and politically correct.🙄
Nobody is more "correct" than Lenny now!
The man is a colossal hypocrite.
@@stevieframe This clip needs to be put on social media. I can't stand Lenny Henry, as you say he is a massive hypocrite. Deserves to be 'cancelled'.
Hilarious when Lenny breaks into David Bellamy
The song's really good.
Extras 'Name a funny black person' 'Dave Chappelle, Chris Rock....' British!
I have this on cassette somewhere or did! It was very funny!
I need the instrumental to this song lmfao
Robocop vhs brought me here
What!? Robocop vhs had this advertised at the start!?
@@southlondon86 You could never have advertisements like this on a film nowadays, too politically correct.
@@DBonaldi No I was just surprised that a sci fi action film had a lenny henry advert.
I remember listening to this on tape cassette in 87 but the girl was called Rebecca not Jo.....
Hilarious!
😂😂😂

And now he's critising anti coloured feeling. When is He going to apologise?
Another whiny white person heard from.
Was he ever funny ?
Yep
Every time he's appeared in public he's made an ass of himself.
Thankfully we've not seen him in a while.
Why you here then dick head
@boundlesslife You're an idiot who's obviously had a humour bypass. We need less people of your ilk in this world.
I see Lenny Henry is hosting Comic Relief again this year. Why?! He is racist and just an appalling man.
Knock... knock... no, nobody in there.
Nope. I don't remember henry EVER being funny - black privilege indeed!
Lenny Henry wasn’t funny in the 80s and he’s still not funny in 2024.
