RIP Glenda. Absolute legend
I knew I wouldn't be alone in searching Morecambe and Wise for Glenda J....
@@michellehatcher3277 She was terriific! No doubt about it !
I'd gotten so accustomed to seeing her as an MP, I'd forgotten how incomparably gorgeous she was. Fifty years ago, after having seen her performance as Elizabeth R on PBS, I wrote her a gushingly sycophantic fan letter, found her address somewhere in the library and sent it off. Much to my surprise, she replied. What a thrill. It's one of the enduring tragedies of my life to have lost her letter. Goodbye, Glenda. You were a wonderful woman, a brilliant artist and brave champion of justice and freedom. Thank you.
Loved Glenda Jackson and M&W , especially Cleopatra ‘ All men are fools and what makes them so is seeing beauty like wot I have got ‘ ! 😂😂😂😂
This was the show we nearly didn't have as it was made not long after Eric's heart bypass. They were so popular that even the thought of no Eric and Ernie over the festive season was enough to ruin most peoples' Christmas. Bless them both.
I thought Eric seemed quieter than usual outside of the Hamlet part.
@@GFSTaylor Yes, my dad had a similar operation and he was never quite the same again. When you think the ill health Eric endured just to make us laugh.
3 absolute legends. RIP to all of them
Don’t forget David Frost!
Heard of the passing of Glenda Jackson and the first thing I want to find on YT is Morecambe and Wise.... Beauty like what I have got... Genius. I'll be watching that next... RIP Ms Jackson
“But I’m a woman!” Exclaimed the actress who would play a triumphant King Lear in her 80s. God, she was great. Brave too, appearing with Morcombe and Wise. They worked so well together. Here and on their comedy series. Their Cleopatra sketch is still brilliant!
Dame Glenda had the ability to tackle anything she'd handle in life. I was just a toddler when she won "Women in Love"; she is the last of the surviving acting Oscar winners from 1970 to pass yesterday (06/15/2023). My sympathies to her son upon her passing and other family members. She will be missed. R. I. P. Dame Glenda.
Rest in eternal Glory Glenda you will be sorely missed Blessed Love from me
R I P Glenda my love you were a fantastic actress
Watching this after losing those incomparable comedians and last year sublime Glenda I feel so emotional - we were so lucky to have seen them at all, and to have seen them together was bliss.
Said it before and will say it again, God how I miss you lads. Simply the best
Total agree
Glenda Jackson such a good sport
Wonderfully talented lady.
As were all three
Glenda went out on her own to get a laugh, running over the lines to perfect the James Cagney impression. That was brave and genius.
Shame for those who don't get M&W, they just looked like a couple of likeables winging it but every step, every move down to the flick of an eyebrow was considered and rehearsed until it looked that natural, I wouldn't wish the world we have now on them but miss them all the same
such a shame! but at least thet gives *you* the chance to feel superior, and that's the whole point of your comment, isn't it?
@@Marcel_Audubonthey did rehearse every detail, it’s not about commenting in a superior way simply sharing the incredible talent and hard work they put in!
Glenda such a natural for comedy with hear 2. Perfect trio
RIP Glenda Jackson
Just be thankful M&W graced the world with their genius. So little of what we thought was funny stands the test of time,but thankfully Morcambe and Wise do 🤣
Eric Morecambe was born with funny bones , a total genius no one will ever compare xx
So many superstars 'got' M&W; Ms. Jackson was at the forefront.
Jackson was such a sport in this scene - legendary stuff from one of the UK's greats ! R I P, Glenda..
I was watching a film last week 'The Triple Echo' with Oliver Reed. Saw her once at Blackheath station, spoke to her, she was very nice indeed. God bless her, XXX and David Frost, Morecombe and Wise too.
Love these guys! Great comedy I grew up with!
Glenda does this so well. Her expressions during the chair bit r brilliant
I believe she was actually scared of heights but didn't mention this at the time.
Glenda practising her cagney while the boys rehearse: she was fantastic.
The funny thing is, she ended up doing Lear on Broadway and was phenomenal!
Fantastic, Great days.
Love it!! Never fails to amaze. Thank you.
I am ABSOLUTELY LOVE THIS SONG BEING SUNG BY GLENDA JACKSON, M & W . 🤗😁🤣😂😊😊😂🤣😁🤗
Superb as always
never fails to make me smile
This is entertainment keep your X factor
right on.
R.I.P Glenda, Eric and Ernie
I was a big fan of Morecombe and wise
wonderful, just wonderful, all three.
I saw A Touch of Class with George Segal & Glenda Jackson, that film was brilliant.
R.i.p Glenda :(
top class she really has respect for them don't get this class nowadays
Looking at Glenda, she'll make a terrific Vulcan!!
Yeah 7 of 9
Romulan for sure with those shoulder pads 😮
never seen this, they can always make me laugh
Those were the days when ‘event’ television was part of cultural life. Nothing was more of an ‘event’ than the annual M&W Christmas show at a time when there were only 3 TV channels.
Glenda looked good here.Morecombe and Wise so funny!
Great times!
Melvyn Cox : Love everything about her except her political leanings.
@@stevetaylor9846 Yeah,know what you mean Steve,but l suppose everybody is entitled to their views.
Nearest l can think to her these days is (arguably!) Katie Hopkins.
Melvyn Cox : Of course they are and I couldn't agree with you more. I don't keep up with modern culture so I only vaguely know about Katie Hopkins.
💜👍💜👍😂😂😂 love it
still brilliant.
Pure gold dust
Love how she looks so traumatised as the chair goes up!
Perfect
These men should of been knighted!!
Agreed, but the Honours System was very snobbish in those days. Some people moaned when they got the OBE in 1976. Can you imagine if they had been made Sirs? They'd probably have asked The Queen to do the show. ❤
Incredible how Eric, Ernie and Glenda are still alive today! M&W are in their 90s and Glenda’s in her 80s! 🤩
You really need to check your facts buddy.
@@SpursFanCanadaEspecially so now.
Erm, Eric died in 1984, Ernie died in 1999, Glenda sadly died earlier today
M and W took the whiz out of the famous...love it...
Queen : 3
Su Reeves 😂 exactly
why Ms Jackson...You can sing!!!
very sad to hear glenda jackson died 15 06 23 she was a great actress
This is when entertainment was funny. Maybe naive, certainly innocent but just plain funny.
They should have played 'doctor Finlay's casebook' as she walked on.
Stalwart Glenda. Great as Stevie
Does anyone have a link to the one where they did a homage to Fred and Ginger with her? Overhead shots, broom handles (I think), beautiful dress and wig … I can't find it now. Tunes included you are wonderful, change partners …
David frost have not seen him ,since the Frost report
A great episode from their late 1970s and early 1980s ITV series which I've got on DVD it featured a running gag with Des O'connor too trying to sing, the chair routine was done on a BBC episode in the early 1970s with Roy Castle, and Eric, was the one that went up and down, I've got the entire BBC series including surviving episodes of series one from 1968, and six VHS Tapes of their Two Of A Kind ITV series from the early 1960s apart from this Christmas special I've also got on the same DVD their first ITV special from 1978 plus two other Christmas specials and their first ITV series for ITV post BBC which includes many routines they done for the BBC series and throughout their BBC series and ITV series are all the appearances of Peter Cushing, with his not being paid running gag in which we see him finally get his payment in one of the 1980s ITV Christmas specials, I've also got their three films from the 1960s plus their final made for ITV television film Night Train To Murder, screened after Eric, died along with The Two Ronnies' they were amongst the best comedy double acts on British television
01:29 She looks like Cate Blanchett, here. It never struck me before....
Doubtfull. I would suggest that Cate Blanchett looks like Glenda Jackson as she is somewhat older.
Glenda is 10x a better actor.
Its a man
@@nrgalvin5612 So was Julie Andrews Joan Crawford Joan Rivers Sally Fields Jane Fonda Lucille Ball Marylin Monroe Jackie Kennedy Queen Elizabeth Michelle Obama Aretha Franklin Tina Turner Elvis. Go to Truthful Spirit Blue Heron on TH-cam 🤗
Luton Town! Rubish!😂 such a great sketch.
Why on earth did Thames TV chose David Frost as host of this special. David Frost was the kiss of death to LWT in 1968 and TV AM in 1983. He was pure sleeping draught. Des O'Connor should have hosted it.
So was Des! He didn't like their constant mickey-taking. I don't get David Frost at all. Shows where pure ambition can get you.
Choosing David Frost as host was just pure nonsense. He never appeared on any of their previous shows and seemed to be in another world during this Christmas edition. At least Des knew the two well, and took their mick taking with good humour, Frost was just a non entity.
Thought you would be aware Des O'Connor was under contract to the BBC in 1979 and would have been unable to present this as was Parkinson and Harty so that didn't really leave any other big enough names for this
Completely odd. Why is he wearing white tie and top hat? Just bizarre!
@@tomhaskett5161 Apparently in Part 1 he was dressed in a normal suit and Morecambe and Wise asked why he was not dressed up like them, so he changed, however the gag was Morecambe and Wise changed into normal suits for Part 2.
I think Star Trek use her as the prototype for the Romulans.

"Just sit there and dream about Nixon?!" Mwah ha ha ha!
was this in the BBC or Thames era?
Frost not very good at this interview because he doesn't have same sense of humour like Glenda and Eric and Erny do. David would take some waking. So funny. David could play sleepy or dopy in Snow White Brilliant singing!
He’s playing the straight guy….
The two looked fragile.RIP fellows!
I hope Glenda got thirty guineas for her performance!
Where has all the humour gone.
Now all gone. Never the likes again.
As what I wrote
Ironic in a way that Glenda Jackson played King Lear. Why shouldn't she have done Hamlet, too?
Good to see Frost well in the background, overrated nonentity that he was
Music
She looks like Caroline Lucas.
And Steve Howe too.

Glenda's a cat.
Shouldn't that be "as wrote by Ernie Wise? Must get your England right.
This woman appeared more like a garden gnome masquerading as a hobbit.
thats stupid reading of Shakespear
its called comedy google it

*It's funnier than your spelling and punctuation!
Март Author : You certainly won't like the Hamlet soliloquy as performed by several notable actors, finally ending with Prince Charles. To celebrate the Shakespeare anniversary. To fully appreciate it you need a sensa yuma. This skit was a piss take. Doubt if you know what one of those is.
