Next Friday the 5th 1605hrs on ''Talking Pictures''   is The Plank  those who have not seen it one of the funniest
ever worth recording  for the next lockdown

[SteamboatPhil]

Both versions (the original and the later remake) are on "Youtube" 

[jaymac]

May well be but I for one would not spend an hour on you tube or download from them if possible. The least time spent with the Google Mafia the better

Yeah I've seen both versions and well worth watching again, also makes me think of another similar short film "A home of their own"  no talking, just antics on a building site, hilarious.




Joe.

Isn't there a similar film with Arthur Lowe?  They're trying to nail a floor down on a building site and need to go for another floorboard?  Can't remember the film name? 


EDIT:. Must be the same thing, I never saw the Tommy cooper version but that's what Google turned up.

It took a bit of digging, but I found it and will try to find a source to watch it. "A Home of Your Own" 1965 https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0058200/

The trouble with "A Home of Your Own" as with "Yes Minister" is that they still ring true

Where I work, I used to have a laugh with some 'customers' - AAAhhh those were the days - where I would exclaim Rhubarb Rhubarb Rhubarb about a previous customer who did not understand what they being asked, older ones got the joke, younger ones (30-40 years olds) had to have it explained.

Thanks Jaymac, I'm looking forward to that. I love the Sykes Rhubarb, and Ronnie Barker's Futtocks end as well, but I bet that wouldn't pass the 'correcness' people today.
