The good old treading on the Garden rake gag Always gets me, even at 47yrs of age, is still crack up, especially when it's part of a combination of gags as this is, first the Champaign cork gag, always works when someone thinks they're gonna be murdered in a Comedy sketch, then the falling in to the fountain thinking he's been shot, then the fountain stream gag, then the garden rake gag to finish that sequence off, it's Genius.
As a staunch admirer of David Suchet as the quintessential Poirot (I'm from Belgium myself) I think Ronnie Barker pulled it off quite admirably and Ronnie Corbett is hilarious as always. Nice surprise the see the Bucket woman is also involved...Dame Routhledge is excellent in portraying these posh women...
They really should've put together a feature length version of something like this, it would've been gut busting, I know it, Ans judging by this very well received by all at the time and even now because they're both timeless in their comedy acting, absolutely brilliant, as this sketch is too.

This is if Monsieur Alfonse was trying to court Hyacinth Bucket.
“Oh, such pulchritude! It is your pulchritude that sets you aside from the multitude, Madam Bultitude.” Lol.
You can see how Patricia Routledge got the part of Hyacinth. This character is her in all but name

Love these. God bless the two R,s. We will never see the likes of these ever again.😢
This is pure Genius!! There are no shows like this anymore
One thing I don’t understand about this sketch: why wasn’t Elizabeth invited over for coffee? She could have used a beaker.
It’s your pulchritude that sets you aside from the multitude Madam Bertitude. 😂😂😂
These boys brought so much happiness to my life thank you so much boys. Love from the Irish lads.
How on earth have I never seen this before?
Surely they could not have considered anyone else but her for playing Hyacinth.

This is just too much talent on one screen. With Three of the great of britain comedy
An absolute blast!!! Really made me LOLOL!!! Thank you Messrs Barker and Corbett! Classic comedy that’s lost none of its charm or fun over the years!
Ronnie Barker was asked, "How would you like to be remembered?"
