One of Ronnie Barker’s classics, with Ronnie Corbett appearing as a man who answers the next question before it has been asked…

You know, you cannot beat the Two Ronnies, whether it’s adventure yarn pastiche or humorous lyrics to famous songs, or just good old fashioned wordplay.
They’ve long been one of my favourite comedy double acts, and it was a great loss to the comedy world when Ronnie Barker sadly passed away.
Thankfully, however, he did it with one final last hurrah - The Two Ronnies Sketchbook - around 15 years after he announced his retirement from showbiz.
Here’s a clip from them, with one of their classic, most famous sketches, “Fork Handles”.
Godber: She had lovely…
Fletch: I know what she had lovely, this is her father you’re talking to, Godber, so be very careful!
Godber: Eyes! I was going to say. Lovely eyes.
Fletch: That’s all right then. …
Godber: She’s a canny old soul, my mum, but she only normally gives me a catalogue of family ailments.
Fletch: No news of the lovely Denise, then?
Godber: She don’t talk about Denise on account of she doesn’t approve of her - because she wears green nail varnish and doesn’t wear a bra.
Fletch: Sounds as if your fiance Denise and my Ingrid have got quite a lot in common.
Godber: Your Ingrid’s got nicer knockers.
