BBC Four to repeat comedy classics

To link in with the celebrations of 100 years of the BBC, from Saturday 22nd October BBC Four will begin broadcasting classic episodes of sitcoms and sketch shows.

British Comedy Guide, 14th October 2022

Originally broadcast in 2005, just months before Ronnie Barker died, and 34 years after the first-ever episode of The Two Ronnies, this "best of" sketch show proves The Two Ronnies never lost their chemistry. A thinner, rather frail looking Ronnie Barker and a buoyant Ronnie Corbett sit behind that famous desk to introduce their favourite sketches from a career spanning three decades. Unlike many compilation programmes, all the sketches are shown in full, and serve as a happy reminder of a time when comedy was just a bit of harmless fun. Fork handles anyone?
