    This is literally a one take 7 minute scene in front of an audience where the same camera follows all of the action whilst the stars: act, conduct an orchestra, play instruments, sing, dance and perform stunts... How did they even make this?!? Bernard Cribbins is incredible. To have that talent without being bred for the profession like so many stars today and still be so genuine

    I met Roy in a lift at the BBC in 1988 when i was working there as a Maintenance Carpenter ..there i was with a few tools in hand to fix some hinges on a door ...Told him how much i loved Record Breakers and how talented he was ....he thanked me and that was that ......
    the wonderful Mr Roy Castle ..a Gentleman

    A very modern feel to this segment. Fast moving, tight patter and some great little imaginative quirks. All done by 2 professional talents who knew what they were doing. 👏🏼👏🏼

    The production values in this short section are incredible. More talent and skill in this one sketch than a whole week's viewing on BBC now, and I ain't kidding! ☹️

      Yes, more people and more TV doesn't mean more talent. I love the warm-hearted thought that went into the planning and execution of that sketch.

      @@redblade8160 Well i came here just to watch 'Cribbins' But i truly hope Roy Castle also rests in peace. But maybe he was buried with his many musical instruments so he can entertain people in the next world.......if there is one?????????

    I decided to watch this for a bit of nostalgia and ended up enjoying the sketch purely on its own merits. Good stuff, and, yes it shows much of modern tv in a poor light.

    That’s a quality piece of entertainment! There is a lot of true talent there! Quite a stunt - I don’t think health and safety would permit that drop today. Such a tight sketch - really excellently executed. Kind of wanted Mr Castle to break into some tap - but we have that elsewhere - class act - stands the test of time!

    2 all time legends here, the 1st thing that came to mind was they both appeared in carry on film, Bernard in carry on spying and Roy in carry on up the Khyber. 1964 & 1968 respectively. Born in 1960 and growing up these chaps made my childhood that little bit more happier when i saw them on TV

      Whist I don’t subscribe to the three score and ten school of thought , and dislike the phrase “he had a good innings”. The wonderful Bernard Cribbins was 93 when he died, so maybe saying he was “to early” is a bit of a stretch in his case…

    wow...the year I was born! God, we had some talent back then! Two amazing blokes who seemed to be part of my life: Roy was just fun and Bernard for me, WAS Jackanory and helped me with loving books! What happened to guys like this...where are the modern equivalents! Both men could seemingly 'Do' Anything : Sing, Dance, Act....
    marvelous memories for which I am grateful to both these awesome men.
