Heeeey Abbbott!!

I love Abbot & Costello, I have all the films.

I've always loved Who's on First, it's comedy at its most pure. It depresses me that so few of my generation have even heard of this, but merely ask them whether or not they're bovvered and they'll crack up laughing... *sigh*

There's a good discussion on here somewhere about Who's on first and there was quite a few people dredged up some good homages and copies to thsi routine.

The Abbott and Costello Show used to be a regular fixture on Channel 4 when it first started. Perhaps they can bin Coach Trip and show A and C again.

Not likely.
