A forgotten Galton and Simpson comedy

Or at least I assume that it's forgotten.

The show, Le Petomane, stars Leonard Rossiter and bizarre is the only word which I can think of to describe it. It's available in its entirety to watch on YouTube.

Never heard of it. When was it on?

What is it about?

Look - 1111 posts. Now that is a (small) fence. Trouble is it won't be there for long so by the time you read this it will be meaningless.

Oo, thanks for that Nick. I'll have to see if I can hunt some down in better quality. :)

It's excellent, I'd love to get a DVD of it.
The film character was actually a real life historic personage who entertained worldwide including heads of state and monarchs.
