Alas - what a great show. Was privileged to live in England several years and this show is a great memory.
Thank You, my friend...
You did the right thing leaving.
When I saw this skit for the first time, here in Finland, back in the 80s, I had not seen any snooker.
Now I have watched a million hours of top snooker. Right this moment watched Selby win the British Open.
Congrats to Mark, the Gentleman.
Genius of Mel, Grhyff, add the not the 9 o'clock news, the young ones, Black adder, spitting image, to the manor born....... 1980s comedy was fresh ground breaking and very very funny.
Famous snooker player casually drinking whisky and smoking in the hall during a match, now that's what I call a different era. x
Pyjama Critic
It was a great era lol

Great? Look what happened to Alex Higgins because of the cigarettes
@@Paul-sl9zm
Oh yea. Your point?
You think none of us survived that era? It was a great era, I don’t remember mentioning cigarettes but hey.
Grew up watching these lot, comedy geniuses- RIP Mel!❤
RIP Mel Smith, you're sorely missed. Cheers from tiny Malta!
Back when comedy was funny on the BBC
Great comic actor RIP MEL SMITH
Pool !!!! This is snooker. A game that requires a level of skill pool players can't comprehend.
I like that you're so passionate about this. I'll change the title.
Balls are smaller :D
You're right cos I am Pool fan.
@Athelstan Edwardson I'm not sure what you're seeing, I can clearly see that the title includes the word Snooker, followed by pool tournament in parentheses. I am leaving the words pool tournament in the title due to TH-cam searches.
@@SirCumspect thought you'd put Pool in the title to dum it down for the Americans.
Mel was a great comic actor
A very young Jimmy nail in the crowd there
Brilliant sketch.
They were great
"Dip yer bread, Reggie!"
Mel was g8 in bbc 2 sitcom colin's sandwich as a depressed man,bored with people and life and job,feel like i'm going through a midlife crisis myself.
Comedy was great back then 🤣.
It's actually a Snooker Tournament.
Come on UK Gold, give us a re-run ...
Even yer best friend would tell ya, yer crap.
That last scene, pure gold.
Thanks for sharing.
Carson King Glad I could!
I sold my tv 3 years ago because it's shiste, it's great to watch old classics. Geez, I'm that old!
And your a yank, how did you even know smith and jones existed? :) subbed.
Just happened to have found it on an old VHS tape. It appears that I had set up something to record and made it go long, and there it was. I just figured someone would enjoy it if I've posted it.
Cool story, been watching smith and bloody jones for two days now, lol. Over here in crooked teeth land we don't get any sketch shows on the tv nowadays, well none that I watch or know of and it's such a shame, our pc world has destroyed comedy. Mel smith was a genius, Griff was a great actor but he didn't obviously write much of the show, because he still does tv and he's not funny. If you liked this, try 'who dares wins' I've been watching a lot of them recently as I loved the show when it was on the tv. You might cringe a bit, but it shows where the pc crap has taken us, when I watched it in the 80's/90's I didn't cringe, I still laugh today though. Shame the world has gone cock a hoop with liberalism, the title 'liberal' sounds cool but they are the biggest twats the earth has ever spawned, liberals should be handing out weed and blowjobs, not worrying about what people say.
In the thumbnail picture it looks like Mel has a huge, gaping mouth.
He's clearly eating his own hand too! :D
Mel looked like a character from the 1989 horror movie Society in the thumbnail picture.
Great! Thanks!
✌️🤠💥🌟🌀🌐
The guy in the t-shirt behind Griff looks like a young Jimmy Nail
not even vaguely
Was thinking the same thing lol
Jimmy Nail was already an actor by the time this was filmed. He was in "Auf Wiedersehen Pet".
Could be his son though.
looks more like a young Tom Dwan (poker player)
not pool
Is that Jimmy nail in background
Where does the 'Pool Tournament' come into it?
Nothing to do with Pool.
"Pool Tournament" comes into it as TH-cam search terms for Americans. So they can be exposed to the humor of Smith and Jones.
I can’t tell every time he says Reggie if it is endearing or pure wise assery?
Looks like snooker to me!
Great comedy
The man behind met man om the right looks much like Jordan Peterson
Can anyone remember the Mel & Gryf scetch about the driver doing "one last job"... for the torys. If so where is it?
It was a sketch from Not the Nine O’Clock News about driving their election campaign car.
Does anyone know have the link for the supermarket checkout sketch. Not sure if it was 'Not The 9 O'Clock News' or AS&J. Mel Smith is the bored till girl and Jones is the violent back packer!
Snooker and pool are two different games.
Too quiet.
If you pause it at 2:09 Mel looks like a character out of the 1989 horror movie Society.
Rocky Horror Picture Show
You mean Richard O'Brien
Obviously you've never seen Society.

It is snooker not pool
Graate shot
Shame he put him off because Reggie Parkinson was a decent player in his day....
Reggie Parkinson Or Parko as his fans knew him, was brilliant at the square root backdraught hook shot
@@kingsmorri True but did he know the Square Root of 122, more to the point KJM ?
rubbish , he was the poor mans Tony Knowles (who to my knowledge never won FA)
@@martinworld7214 To be fair to our Tone, he did win the 1982 International Open and the 1983 Professional Players Tournament and was a three-time semi-finalist in the World Professional Snooker Championship in the 1980s. His highest world ranking was second, in the 1984/85 season.
He turned professional in 1980 and surprisingly defeated the defending World Champion: Steve Davis by 10/1 in 1982. His other tournament victories included the 1984 Australian Masters but was the "nearly" man...
@@Isleofskye A+ excellent work :)
Is that how a confident player can be demoralized? LoL.
Pool and snooker are totally different games
You are correct!
Griff is good at being dimwitted, unintelligent. I am sure he is actually intelligent in real life.
Yeah, he was very good at that ..a remarkable comedian all in all.
Pool? That's snooker.
What was wrong with, that red into the corner
Very funny sketch, also like the darts sketch.
kudos to the extras not corpsing!
young lad nearly lost it but held on
Uwww.....and that's a bad miss.
that's numberwang

I have specifically made the decision on my channel NOT to earn money so I can share content like this. AND, fair use includes converting. I converted it from VHS to digital. :-D
@@SirCumspect If you honestly think that converting copyrighted content to digital and posting it on TH-cam constitutes "fair use", you are mistaken. You appear to be wielding that term without knowing what it means.
