    40 plus years later and they are all brilliant. When Peter Sellers died, Harry sang "Bread of Heaven" at the funeral. Spike said to his manager "I hope Harry goes before me because I don't want him singing that song at my funeral". Harry did die before Spike but when the latter died his manager phoned up Secombe's widow and got a recording of the song which she played at his funeral. Humour to the last.
  • Spike and Harry , what can you say ,it’s 2022 and I’m still crying with laughter .😂😂😂
  • Harry Secombe.... One of Wales' greatest gifts to the world. A very clever and funny man.

    I agree 100% I am 88 years old NEW ZEALANDER residing in Philippines now and my younger brother and I used to "take off" almost all of Harry's, (Neddy), "Spike" Milligan, and Terry's shows every Saturday night at our parent's house after footy (rugby) - they were our favourite comedians and we reckoned Harry was the greatest tenor singer in the world.- of course my Mum was pure blooded Welsh so we were a bit biased. But they were great days and I enjoy youtube videos which I have discovered here. Especially i enjoy his Christian songs and hymns - pure majic and authentic - and he inspires both me and my fiancee as we look forward to serving the LORD in his plan/mission for us. Harry's singing of "The Holy City" is unmatched by any other singer of any generation in my opinion. RIP Harry - your quick wit, your humour and your magnificent singing will never die.
  • They don't make em like this anymore. 2 of the greatest funniest comedians of all time.🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

    Spike is so, so funny. I saw him do a one man show at Balmain, Sydney. The entire audience was in hysterics from beginning to end. It was unbelievable.
  • @KristonAbbott

  • harry left the best part of the gun story out,WHEN SPIKE POPPED HIS HEAD IN THE BACK OF THE WAGON AND ASKED HAS ANYONE SEEN A GUN HARRY REPLIED "WHAT COLOUR WAS IT"....PURE COMEDY GENIUS!

    Sir Harry Secombe MBKS. He was, sharp, funny, but most of all kind. Just a lovely, genuine man. Generous to a fault!

    I'm 62 years young and I've very nearly just coughed up my lungs from laughing at Spike, jump to 19:55, in these difficult times he can still bring much needed sunshine to our lives, we all need to like and share, I'm sure there are more people out there that need cheering up :)

    I had forgotten just how funny Harry Secombe was. I remember them all on the Goon Show and the Telly Goons, I even go back to a time when Michael Bentine was part of the team. Spike Milligna, the well known typing error, wrote some damned funny books: but his Q series of comedies were barking mad at times. Peter Sellers was a comedy genius, of course. They all had me in tears more than once.

    this was such a release from the pressures of 2022. Fantastic and will never be replaced!!
  • @andyjay9346
    Ever since I was a little lad in the 50s, ALWAYS enjoyed the humour of Spike and Harry. 🤣
  • @patiacat1
    I remember my Dad crying with laughter at Spike when I was a kid. I get it now. Brilliant
  • I was so lucky to grow up listening to these wonderful men. Seems like a lifetime ago. Laughing with sad and happy tears at the moment. What an interviewer Parkinson was too.
