My mum has been in hospital for 3 weeks with pneumonia and I am sure this has kept her spirits up I'm allowed in to feed my mum 3 times a day because she cannot speak due to a severe stroke but this makes her laugh and smile . Thank you from the bottom of my heart from me and mum xx
The best line and most risqué statement I think they ever used, was when they referred to the difficulty of having an upright in a cottage. To those the didn’t understand they thought Julian and Sandy were discussing installing an upright piano in a rural dwelling. For those who could grasp the subtext they knew this was about having gay sex in a public lavatory. The genius of their writing was never given the credit it deserved.
@@billyunterbuchner9197 sorry ducky, but I have to point out that you’re not very good at this are you? Oh, but what are you like on a cottage upright I bet your fingering is bona! 🥰
How did they get away with this!!!! I was only young buts made me hoot with laughter and even all these years later still reduces me to tears Brilliant !!!!
I loved the cowboy sketch, introducing 2 Gin Tex. Kenneth Horne says shouldn't that be 2 Gun Tex. The reply was - no dear 3 Gins and I'm any bodies! Similar to - one drink and I can feel it - two drinks and anyone can! LOL I've used that line occasionally myself.
Whenever I'm feeling a bit out of sorts, am instant smile comes across. I feel in line with me Williams when I first saw him in Make Mine Mini, and even though he has a small part, it also featured Ms Hattie Jacques (who's scene as the 'debutante tutor' was hysterical) - and as any good boy who's a bit different, I couldn't get enough of them. 🌹
This brings back so many memories, sat around the radio & listening intently, you swear you could almost see them. As for Jules & Sandy, this was very close to the knuckle for the time, the kind of "joke" that many knew about but few mentioned openly.
They escaped the wrath of Mary Whitehouse for years...thank goodness... they kept Polari alive and made their listening de rigeur (oooo and that's your actual French) amongst the gay community.
Truly gifted, beyond inteligental and fear of social repurcussions that were not there then! As of now, well the british lose a comedic value being subject to P.C. Sad.
Fabulique....and that's your actual French !. Does anybody know where I can hear a recording of the famous episode where they did "The Palone Ranger" with Kenneth Williams crying out "High Ho Sylvia!"
The episode you are looking for can be found on radioechoes.com You will find all the listings including a brief synopsis. I have the recording downloaded, so it does exist. Happy days, thanks to you Max for putting the clips on, absolutely brilliant.
Round the Horne Series 3 Episode 19 "The Palone Ranger" The Palone Ranger sequence was not part of the Julian & Sandy strand so does not appear on this compilation.
FYI, Writer Barry Took killed off the characters after the 4th series by introducing their Wives !!, turns out they were not gay at all - 'Hello I'm Sandra & this is my friend Julia' ......
FYI, they weren't "killed off" as such...there were only four series of RTH, as Kenneth Horne died shortly after the 4th series. The subsequent show went in a different direction with different characters, since they felt uncomfortable writing essentially the same show without Horne there...

" but did you manage to drag yourself up on deck ?" " oh no we dressed quite casual " - genius
in no way is that genius; it's just playing with words
Billy Unterbuchner quit being an arse. Nobody likes an arse.
@@billyunterbuchner9197 Wordplay can't be "genius" (in the colloquial or literal sense), then? Oh, dear.
time stamp?

"His lallies seem to shrink before your very eyes" - I LOVED them and still do. Thank you SO much Max. xxx
"So we sets off in this boat".... what with no preperations?...... "Well I 'ad me hair done" 😅🤣😂 P.M.S.L
I'm only in my 40's. but love these 2. Just genius.
So funny, no doubt someone would take offence nowadays.
It's so bona to varda this dolly old upload. Thanks to M for being so fabulosa!
Pure genius. Kenneth Horne is the greatest straight man ever and Ken and Hugh are hilarious.
And also, for the record, the straightest great man. 'Oooh! Bold! Innee bold, Jule?'
How did they get away with this!!!! I was only young buts made me hoot with laughter and even all these years later still reduces me to tears Brilliant !!!!
Hard to believe that this was on BBC Radio on Sunday afternoons back in the 1960s. You would have difficulty getting it on radio in the US even now.
I have always loved English comedy. This one is the best.
Love Round the Horne and I was born in '68, but always hilarious and never ages!
Still as funny after all these years!
Paul Trevor Bale absolutely.

He only had a small part? You've been peeking!
Came back to this as it brings back memories of a lovely chilhood.
The lovely Kenneth Horne considered comedy his part time job & had a full time job as director of Chad Valley toys. Almost unbelievable!
Yes - he was one of the greatest 'straight' comedians Ha ha!!
I think that ill health forced him out of business and he concentrated on show business in later years.
Wonderful.
Thank you so much Max...this made my weekend. Still one of the funniest radio bits ever! Absolute comedy gold.
This reminds me of happy times spent at the recordings at the BBC Paris studios at Monday lunchtimes, the audience was mostly students and seniors.
"Dont even get the first meaning"
🤣🤣🤣
Bona. When I was a kid listening to this, I just thought that they were two 'silly' men.
This brings back so many memories, sat around the radio & listening intently, you swear you could almost see them. As for Jules & Sandy, this was very close to the knuckle for the time, the kind of "joke" that many knew about but few mentioned openly.
All's bona that ends bona ...... fantastic !
Hugh Paddick as Robin Hood in ""Up the Chastity Belt " is a visual delight.
i can imagine this as a cartoon like ricky gervais and karl pilkington
Oooh, ain’t you bold! This set my riah on fire!
So bold so bold..very good and thank you
Just genius.
3:47
Omi Alive...that made me feel old as I remember the show Man Alive as a kid
They escaped the wrath of Mary Whitehouse for years...thank goodness... they kept Polari alive and made their listening de rigeur (oooo and that's your actual French) amongst the gay community.
Truly Bona.
"He's got an acid tongue.....you can say that again." Just how did they get away that fifty odd years ago
Just wonderful
Truly gifted, beyond inteligental and fear of social repurcussions that were not there then! As of now, well the british lose a comedic value being subject to P.C. Sad.
"Bona Drag" "Picadillly Palare"
Excellent. Sadly missed.
Bradshaws train guide mentioned back in those days.
Kenneth Horne - Kenneth Williams - Hugh Paddick.
I am laughing in advance en avance
So lovely
Almost need to slow it down to follow their speedy fun
I note the Jimmy Savile reference.
Fantabulosa bona
5:22 that line aged well 😅
Actually prophetic
Interesting joke about Jimmy Savile at 5:23...
Allison Parkes In the 60s he was interviewed for ‘Lady Penelope’ comic for girls and was salacious even in that. Creep!!
i didnt hear a joke, they just said 'this is something that Jimmy Saville wore'. Allison;s comment is FAKE NEWS
this is so good my lover xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Fabulique....and that's your actual French !.
Does anybody know where I can hear a recording of the famous episode where they did "The Palone Ranger" with Kenneth Williams crying out "High Ho Sylvia!"
I don't think it is in one of the four recordings I have uploaded.

Yes - that is one of the few lapses in all the series. Unnecessary and totally out of character. I bet they didn't enjoy it.

The subsequent show went in a different direction with different characters, since they felt uncomfortable writing essentially the same show without Horne there...
