Ghosts 2.1! I’ll be posting on here in line with the BBC One schedule leaving a few days for people to catch up (although I know most people have already caned it all on iPlayer anyway)

Del Boy, Uncle Albert and Rodney from Only Fools and Horses; aka… the best comedy ever!

Song clip: “In My Little Snapshot Album” performed by George Formby from the film; “I See Ice” (1938)

Clips taken from the 1970’s film compilation “To See Such Fun”.

Kenneth Williams: “Oah my Ghad–”
