      It's the degeneration of culture that today accepts swearing as a joke. The four letter words that were once banned, today are easily spoken on broadcast TV. That's degeneration of culture!

      Are you saved? Where will you go when you die? Heaven or hell?
      The Gospel, which means the Good News is the news that God Almighty, the Creator came in the flesh as Jesus Christ to take away the sin of the world. The one God is a trinity of the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit. The Son came and laid down his own life to save ours. His sacrifice on the cross paid the price for our redemption with his own blood. On the third day he rose from dead and offers the gift of salvation and forgiveness to those that repent and trust in him. Although God's creation was created perfect, having no death, sickness and disease, the creation became corrupted through Adam and Eve in them disobeying God. In this rebellion the creation became fallen through the curse of sin and mankind became separated from God. This world is fallen, but God offers reconciliation to him through his provision at the cross. Ultimately God will restore his creation to perfection when he returns but those that reject his offer of redemption will remain condemned by their sins and go to hell.
      John 1:1,14 KJV
      In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and THE WORD WAS GOD. [14] And THE WORD WAS MADE FLESH, and dwelt among us,
      1 John 3:8 KJV
      He that committeth sin is of the devil; for the devil sinneth from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil.
      Isaiah 9:6 KJV
      For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty GOD, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace.
      John 1:10
      He was in the world, and the world was made by him, and THE WORLD KNEW HIM NOT.

      They were really on top of their game for years, a hell of a lot better than most of their contemporaries, which is why so much of their material has aged so well. I think Barker probably wrote this one, he was renowned for his wordplay, double-entendres and puns. Like you say, the timing and delivery is absolutely perfect.

      John King Maybe, but then I am fairly sure these were recorded in front of a live audience (that might sound obvious but sometimes they are screened to an audience to get the laugh track, not actually performed) and so he had to pause until the laughing died down before he says the next line.

    This is my favourite sketch. Genius writing by Barker and immaculate comic timing by Corbett. I can watch this over and over again.
    For discussion: I always thought Corbett's line "Now, where was I?" is a very cleverly and calmly delivered signal to Barker that he had lost his way in the script, it being performed in front of an audience. Barker returns with a seemingly unrelated line that allows Corbett to recover. I hope I am wrong, but if it is true it would show Corbett's amazing stagecraft.

      Matt Hayes Both sketches written by David Renwick - thank goodness he carried on writing and gave us One Foot in the Grave among others.

      @MattHayesVinyl 7 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      One Foot in the Grave is one of my all time favorites. I still watch it quite often. Plus Only Fools and Horses, The Good Life, Vicar of Dibley, Red Dwarf, Men Behaving Badly, Dad's Army... so much better than the crap put out today.

      Matt Hayes Also worth bearing in mind Renwick wrote these sketches when he was 25! By all accounts he's a bit of a nightmare to work with but what a genius

    • @MattHayesVinyl
      @MattHayesVinyl 7 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Didn't realize he was that young. Yes, genius indeed... and again, it makes me sad how much we have lost in the last 20 years or so when it comes to comedy.

      I remember a comedy gameshow on ITV called 'Lose a Million' that was basically the Mastermind sketch. The first question would be "What is your name" (to which the contestant wouldn't answer), then the 2nd question would be something which they would answer with their name...etc
