Good evening, ladies and gentlemen, and welcome to the show.

0:00:180:00:21

Good evening.

0:00:210:00:22

-Shakespeare?

-Eh?

-Shakespeare?

-I've no idea who he is, Ern,

0:00:230:00:27

it was handed to me as I came on.

0:00:270:00:29

-To be or not to be!

-What are you doing?

0:00:300:00:33

I was doing it then when you interrupted. I was doing it then.

0:00:330:00:36

-Doing what?

-Eh?

-Doing what?

0:00:360:00:38

Shakespeare's soliloquy from Hamlet.

0:00:380:00:39

It should be the other way round.

0:00:390:00:41

It's these tights, there's nothing I can do about that.

0:00:410:00:44

LAUGHTER

0:00:460:00:48

To be or not to...

0:00:490:00:51

Why all the serious stuff?

0:00:510:00:53

Ah, well, you see, the point is that if you and I play our cards right

0:00:530:00:57

and we do this serious stuff, we've got it made.

0:00:570:01:00

Let's face it, it's very difficult, you know.

0:01:000:01:02

It's very difficult to come on here and do new jokes every week.

0:01:020:01:06

-You don't have to tell me, I'm a writer.

-You play your cards right...

0:01:060:01:09

LAUGHTER

0:01:090:01:12

-You play your cards right...

-Yes.

-I'll make it easy on you.

-How?

-How?

0:01:120:01:16

-How, yes.

-Well, you take, er, Olivier and Gielgud.

0:01:160:01:20

Who?

0:01:200:01:21

LAUGHTER

0:01:210:01:23

Laurence Olivier and John Gielgud.

0:01:260:01:29

They're actors.

0:01:290:01:31

Oh, are they? Mm.

0:01:310:01:33

LAUGHTER

0:01:330:01:35

They do this stuff, this rubbish, week in and week out in the theatres,

0:01:350:01:38

-and the theatres are packed!

-Are they really?

-Yes!

0:01:380:01:40

And you mean if we could get away with that sort of rubbish

0:01:400:01:43

-we wouldn't have to bother about writing new jokes.

-Exactly.

0:01:430:01:46

And they'd charge £3 per seat.

0:01:460:01:49

-£3 per seat!

-And they don't get any laughs.

0:01:490:01:51

LAUGHTER

0:01:510:01:53

Even though they come on dressed like that?

0:01:530:01:56

LAUGHTER

0:01:560:01:58

Yes. You play it my way, we've got it made.

0:01:580:02:01

-You've got something there.

-I'm sorry about that.

0:02:010:02:04

You've got to face facts, Ern.

0:02:050:02:07

Once you get past 40 it becomes very difficult.

0:02:070:02:09

Oh, I'm dreading it.

0:02:090:02:11

LAUGHTER

0:02:110:02:13

There is just one point here.

0:02:150:02:17

I mean, will our fans go for us doing this sort of thing?

0:02:170:02:20

I don't see why not. They're a nice couple.

0:02:200:02:22

-It's worth a try.

-Of course it is.

0:02:230:02:25

When you consider we get very little respect doing what we do.

0:02:250:02:27

-Or accolades!

-That's true.

-We don't get any accolades!

0:02:270:02:30

That's not an accolade.

0:02:300:02:31

No, it isn't. There's very few comedians who've got knighthoods.

0:02:310:02:34

Only Sir Lew and after that you're struggling!

0:02:340:02:36

-I hope you know what you're doing.

-Leave everything to me.

0:02:360:02:39

Play it straight, that's the answer. Tell you what, introduce me.

0:02:390:02:42

-I'll introduce you.

-Yes, and I'll go up the back and walk down.

0:02:420:02:44

-I see, make a big entrance.

-Drama...

-Drama.

-..and effect, you see.

0:02:440:02:47

-You won't laugh as I go out?

-No, I won't.

0:02:470:02:49

LAUGHTER

0:02:490:02:51

Ladies and gentlemen, it is now my pleasure to introduce...

0:02:540:02:57

Are you doing it now?

0:02:570:02:59

Yes, I'm doing it now.

0:02:590:03:01

-I can't hear you, see?

-Oh, well...

-I can't hear you!

0:03:010:03:04

-Yeah, well, what should I do then?

-Oh, yes.

0:03:040:03:06

LAUGHTER

0:03:060:03:08

If I'm introducing you,

0:03:080:03:09

you'll want some sort of a cue so that you can walk down.

0:03:090:03:12

-Thank you.

-I'll give you a visual cue. What should I do?

0:03:120:03:16

-Take your wig off!

-Right... No!

0:03:160:03:19

No, you better not, it'll get laughs, I can't top that.

0:03:190:03:22

-No. I'll jump up in the air, all right?

-Oh, all right.

0:03:220:03:24

All right, ladies and gentlemen, it is now my pleasure to

0:03:240:03:27

introduce to you Eric Morecambe doing Shakespeare's Hamlet.

0:03:270:03:32

Are you going to jump up?

0:03:320:03:33

He wants it all!

0:03:350:03:36

To be...

0:03:390:03:40

..or not to be.

0:03:410:03:44

That is the question.

0:03:440:03:45

Thank you.

0:03:470:03:48

APPLAUSE

0:03:480:03:50

See what I mean?

0:03:500:03:52

Thank you. Thank you very much. Thank you.

0:03:520:03:55

-Wait a minute, just a moment.

-I've got to get changed now for King Lear.

0:03:550:03:58

Just a moment...

0:03:580:04:00

-What about the rest of it?

-Rest of it?

-Yeah, the rest of it!

0:04:000:04:04

What do you mean the rest, I've done it!

0:04:040:04:05

He knows nothing about Shakespeare!

0:04:050:04:07

But that speech goes on for about ten minutes!

0:04:070:04:10

-Oh?

-You said, "Let's do the serious stuff," didn't you?

0:04:120:04:15

-So we won't have to do the jokes.

-(Yes.)

0:04:150:04:17

-Well, what are we going to do now?

-We'll go back to the old stuff.

0:04:170:04:21

What do you think of it so far?

0:04:210:04:22

"Rubbish!"

0:04:220:04:23

Never fails.

0:04:230:04:25

-ARTHUR PLAYS HARMONICA Not now, Arthur, not now.

-Not now.

0:04:250:04:29

-Slowly.

-Slowly.

-Take it nice and easy.

0:04:290:04:31

-Think of the money, Arthur, think of the money.

-Bit of dignity, Arthur.

0:04:310:04:35

-Dignity at all times.

-Smile, smile, Arthur.

0:04:350:04:38

APPLAUSE

0:04:380:04:40

"Dear Morecambe and Wise, I like you both very much.

0:04:450:04:48

"Would you please send me a photograph of yourselves?

0:04:480:04:50

"Enclosed, a stamped addressed envelope."

0:04:500:04:53

Of course.

LAUGHTER

0:08:200:08:22

I beg your pardon, Your Highness, I really do.

0:08:240:08:27

I'll never get this in...

0:08:270:08:29

-Your Majesty...

-Yes!

0:08:320:08:33

Sir Walter Raleigh seeks an audience.

0:08:330:08:35

Yes, he can have this lot. They haven't been too good up to now.

0:08:350:08:39

I take my leave, my liege!

0:08:390:08:41

Sir Walter Raleigh.

0:08:440:08:45

TROMBONE PARPS

Sir Walter, my most loyal and trusted friend.

TROMBONE PARPS

0:08:580:08:59

Please, please,

0:09:020:09:04

you don't have to kneel.

0:09:040:09:07

LAUGHTER

0:09:070:09:08

I'm not kneeling, Your Majesty! You're mistaken.

0:09:080:09:11

Sir Walter...

0:09:110:09:12

I need your counsel. Much is happening abroad that I do not like.

0:09:160:09:20

Your Majesty, there is an ominous wind blowing from the continent.

0:09:200:09:24

TROMBONE PARPS

0:09:240:09:26

PARPING CONTINUES

0:09:280:09:30

-That's enough ominous wind!

-Thank you.

0:09:320:09:34

The powers of Spain

0:09:370:09:38

and France hover over my kingdom like two hungry vultures

0:09:380:09:42

eager for the kill, and I cannot rest

0:09:420:09:45

until these foreign predators have been put firmly in their place.

0:09:450:09:49

That such brave words should come from so fair a queen.

0:09:490:09:52

But in times of stress...

0:09:520:09:54

ERIC CACKLES

0:09:590:10:00

I am still...

0:10:000:10:02

LAUGHTER

0:10:020:10:04

I am still a mere woman who needs the comfort and help

0:10:040:10:08

that only a man can give.

0:10:080:10:11

Cheeky.

0:10:110:10:12

Your Majesty is too kind.

0:10:140:10:16

Please arise, Sir Walter.

0:10:160:10:17

LAUGHTER

0:10:170:10:19

I am risen, Your Majesty, I'm standing on me feet!

0:10:190:10:23

Your Majesty,

0:10:230:10:24

-Mr William Shakespeare of Stratford!

-Ah.

0:10:240:10:27

Evening all!

0:10:310:10:32

Avon calling!

0:10:340:10:35

LAUGHTER AND APPLAUSE

0:10:350:10:38

Your Majesty!

0:10:420:10:45

He is but a common poet pedlar!

0:10:450:10:47

Mr Shakespeare...

0:10:490:10:50

-It is indeed good to see you.

-Thank you.

0:10:520:10:55

-Where's your beard?

-Swallowed it.

0:10:550:10:57

But don't worry.

0:10:590:11:00

Your Majesty grows more beautiful every day.

0:11:000:11:03

-Get off my cloak!

-Oh!

-Urgh!

0:11:030:11:06

Your Majesty, I must protest! The pen is his weapon!

0:11:080:11:11

He doesn't even know how to fire a crossbow!

0:11:110:11:13

May I defend myself against those remarks, Your Majesty?

0:11:150:11:18

By all means.

0:11:180:11:20

Hold me trombone.

0:11:200:11:21

-We've worked together before.

-Yes.

0:11:240:11:27

-Ivy Benson's All Girls Band.

-That's it!

0:11:270:11:31

-The one on the end.

-Shepherd's Ball.

-Yeah.

0:11:310:11:33

-D'you remember?

-Yeah, Ginger we used to call her.

0:11:330:11:36

Are you ready? Fire!

0:11:360:11:38

LAUGHTER

0:11:390:11:41

Mr Shakespeare has scored 86 on the conventional chart.

0:11:440:11:47

LAUGHTER AND APPLAUSE

0:11:470:11:49

With a bonus...

0:11:540:11:55

With a bonus of 40 for hitting her right in the first place.

0:11:550:11:58

Your Majesty, we are on the verge of a catastrophic war!

0:12:000:12:03

This is no place for a third-class writer of rubbish!

0:12:030:12:06

-Ern, it's quite good up to now.

-Not my play, your poetry!

0:12:060:12:09

My dear Sir Walter, I must insist that you control yourself.

0:12:090:12:12

May I defend myself once again by reading you a poem, Your Majesty?

0:12:120:12:16

-Of course.

-Thank you.

0:12:160:12:17

-Have you got the scrolls?

-I didn't think you'd notice.

0:12:210:12:24

LAUGHTER

0:12:240:12:26

May I, Your Majesty, take the weight off me sonnets?

0:12:320:12:35

Your Majesty, this is no time for poetry.

0:12:360:12:38

-Sir Walter, there is always time for the written word.

-That's true, love.

0:12:380:12:42

Please, Mr Shakespeare.

0:12:420:12:44

-I'm very sorry, Your Majesty.

-It's too late now, Ern.

0:12:460:12:48

-Don't worry about it.

-Get off me cloak!

0:12:480:12:52

Just hold the end there, love, will you?

0:12:530:12:56

-I've written this for you.

-Ah.

0:12:560:12:58

When I consider everything that grows...

0:12:580:13:01

How beautiful.

0:13:010:13:03

A tree, a flower,

0:13:030:13:06

the corns on your toes...

0:13:060:13:08

Corns on your toes?!

0:13:080:13:10

How dare you say such things in front of high up people?!

0:13:100:13:14

-At least I've paid to get in.

-What do you mean paid to get in?!

0:13:170:13:19

Just because you're Raleigh and invented the bike,

0:13:190:13:22

-you think you know everything!

-That's nothing to do with it!

0:13:220:13:26

Please arise, Sir Walter.

0:13:260:13:28

What does she think I am, a midget or something?!

0:13:300:13:33

She's staring at me all the time!

0:13:330:13:34

Why not? Your face looks like a slashed cinema seat.

0:13:340:13:37

It would appear that I was misguided in thinking that

0:13:380:13:41

you would be of help to me in these difficult times.

0:13:410:13:45

-Sorry, Your Majesty.

-Pray thee, I am very sorry.

-Arise, Sir Walter.

0:13:450:13:49

I am risen! Why does she keep going on and on about that for?

0:13:490:13:52

Let us try and deal with the more immediate problem of Spain,

0:13:520:13:56

-and in particular, the evil Philip.

-Yes!

0:13:560:13:59

Your Majesty, I have a little poser.

0:13:590:14:01

Well, you can't fight nature, Ern.

0:14:010:14:04

LAUGHTER

0:14:040:14:05

Now that's enough, shut up!

0:14:050:14:07

Your Majesty, I have a proclamation.

0:14:070:14:10

Try putting your head between your knees, it never fails.

0:14:100:14:13

A most urgent message delivered this day by hand.

0:14:140:14:18

A most urgent message.

0:14:180:14:20

Ah-ha!

0:14:200:14:21

That's a funny message.

0:14:210:14:23

Ah-ha, that's what it says, ah-ha!

0:14:230:14:25

I knew something like this would happen.

0:14:250:14:27

What does this letter contain that makes you look so distraught?

0:14:270:14:30

It is from Philip of Spain.

0:14:300:14:31

Could I have the stamp?

0:14:310:14:33

LAUGHTER

0:14:330:14:35

He is indeed a strange man.

0:14:370:14:40

He hasn't put one on, the cheapskate!

0:14:400:14:42

Would you please read it?

0:14:420:14:44

This letter contains a proposal of marriage!

0:14:440:14:47

-ERIC SCREAMS

-Proposal of marriage! Never!

-Never!

-Never!

-Never!

0:14:470:14:50

There won't be a marriage between you and the King of Spain!

0:14:500:14:52

We can't have that Spaniard riding around the courtyard

0:14:520:14:55

with his onions dangling over his handlebars!

0:14:550:14:57

-It's not right, Your Majesty!

-It will never take place!

0:14:580:15:01

There will be no marriage while I've got the strength to draw my sword!

0:15:010:15:05

It's Old Man River, get off as quick as you can.

0:15:070:15:10

# Old man river... #

0:15:100:15:12

The people of England will never take this marriage.

0:15:120:15:15

-They will say it is impossible.

-The King of Spain, he is without.

0:15:150:15:19

Then it is impossible, we're saved.

0:15:190:15:21

LAUGHTER

0:15:210:15:22

-Ah-ha!

-Look out.

0:15:220:15:24

-Your Majesty.

-Looks like a glass of stout.

0:15:250:15:27

-I am indeed proud and honoured.

-Silence, Elizabeth!

0:15:300:15:33

I have no time for this stupid English politeness.

0:15:330:15:36

I simply demand an answer to my proposal of marriage,

0:15:370:15:41

otherwise I will order my Armada to open fire upon you.

0:15:410:15:46

Now, what do you say to that?

0:15:460:15:50

Give Lionel Blair that suit back.

0:15:500:15:53

And come in quick like you said you would.

0:15:530:15:55

You ignorant pig, you!

0:15:550:15:57

This means one thing and one thing only! War!

0:15:570:16:02

PHILIP LAUGHS

0:16:020:16:03

-He's a fine actor, that girl.

-Oh, wonderful.

-Fine actor, she is.

0:16:030:16:07

What are you going to do about King Philip of Spain?

0:16:070:16:09

Ah, King Philip of Spain, let the Spanish fleet take to the sea,

0:16:090:16:12

-I don't care!

-But you need men. Have you got the chaps?

0:16:120:16:15

Yes, it's the knicker on this inside.

0:16:150:16:17

-Sonia's Revenge, we call it.

-Yes, and why not?

0:16:190:16:22

I have decided that if it would prevent war, this marriage,

0:16:230:16:27

much as I dislike it, will take place.

0:16:270:16:30

Your Majesty, I am deeply moved...

0:16:360:16:38

..that your love of this land

0:16:400:16:42

and its people should make you make such a sacrifice.

-Yes.

0:16:560:16:58

-I find such devotion most touching.

-What'd she say?

0:17:000:17:03

I can't hear her down here.

0:17:030:17:05

Arise, gentlemen, arise.

0:17:060:17:08

-A rise? Somebody's going to get a rise!

-I'd love a rise!

0:17:080:17:11

When one can count on such loyalty, one can...

0:17:130:17:17

Sir Walter, I thought I told you to rise.

0:17:170:17:19

-She never stops, does she?

-Well, why not?

-Something personal.

0:17:210:17:25

You're two fellas in the skin?

0:17:250:17:27

When one can count on such loyalty, no sacrifice is too great.

0:17:270:17:30

The Spaniards are attacking us,

0:17:300:17:32

-we are under fire from the Armada!

-BANGING

0:17:320:17:35

Excuse me, it's the ship's biscuits.

0:17:350:17:38

-Gentlemen, you know what you have to do.

-Yes.

0:17:380:17:40

You're very kind, thank you very much indeed.

0:17:400:17:42

Your Majesty, they are attacking from the north!

0:17:440:17:46

-No, that's not possible.

-Yes, they are, they're coming down the M1!

0:17:460:17:50

In a big red bus with Benfica written all over it.

0:17:500:17:52

-They must be repulsed!

-You go, Ernie!

0:17:530:17:55

-You're more repulsive than anybody else.

-Right!

0:17:550:17:58

-I can't get me sword, never mind. Ha-ha-ha!

-What a fine actor.

0:17:580:18:01

-You back there, you swine!

-Oh, Your Majesty, I'm afraid!

0:18:010:18:04

-This is no place for a young girl.

-That's true, I'm off.

0:18:040:18:07

-LADY FROBISHER:

-The King of Spain!

0:18:090:18:11

Well, Elizabeth, what is your answer?

0:18:110:18:14

Do you agree to my proposal of marriage

0:18:140:18:16

or do you wish for further bloodshed?

0:18:160:18:19

You can have your marriage. You are indeed a strange man.

0:18:190:18:23

Excellent!

0:18:230:18:25

Believe you me, you won't regret it.

0:18:250:18:29

-Darling!

-LAUGHTER

A small island off the north-west coast of Britain

0:19:210:19:24

0:20:230:20:26

The thing won't go on, will it? I've known all the answers up to now.
