A proper gag. Used in the Joker film


Yes, brilliant. It also appeared in his last television appearance which I think was called ' Bob Monkhouse - Last Stand'. A very poignant programme involving an invited audience of budding comedians who are household names now, and made after his diagnosis with terminal cancer. I am not sure whether this programme can be found anywhere but it crops up on the Beeb from time to time.
