THIS is how you do a sketch show and comedy in general
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 4 January 2022Verified Purchase
A lot of modern sketch shows are as funny as watching paint dry. The Armstrong and Miller Show. The Fast Show. Big Train. These are the ones I have and I find difficult to even chuckle at. And I have tried liking them. The two Ronnie Barker shows on offer in this set do it right. Six Dates With Barker and Hark At Barker. The atmosphere is a happy one. I don't even need to laugh at any of Ronnie's jokes to be entertained. That's how good he is. I just enjoy the happy atmosphere on offer. It's pure escapism. I do eventually chuckle at some of Ronnie's jokes. I mean the writing is too good not to. He was best alone when he did comedy Ronnie. Don't like Corbett as much as I do Barker. I have this set (obviously) and Clarence, Porridge and it's sequel Going Straight and Open All Hours and it's sequel series. By the way there are many recognizable faces throughout Six Dates With Barker and Hark At Barker. Some in their younger days. Buy this. Enjoy some old school escapism that makes you forget about the world outside for a time. Oh and the first episode of the Six Dates With Barker show. It's The Removal Man. This is basically the pilot episode for Ronnie's one series sitcom Clarence. Only The Removal Man was made nearly ten years prior. Both of which co-star the lovely Josephine Tewson.

There should have been more from Lord Rustless
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 16 October 2014Verified Purchase
I recall the Lord Rustless part of this disc set as a kid and liked it although I had no idea what was going on. Today I watched it and would describe it as early Two Ronnies. (And Mr Corbett does appear from time to time) To be fair I think it's better than the Two Ronnies and this was obviously where they got the structure for their shows . This was written by a team of 'hip' writers of the time and much sharper than the latter. Extremely funny in places. It is however a celebration of Mr Barkers work and talents. There is something for everyone. Give it a go, he'd want you to!!

Very good!
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 6 November 2019Verified Purchase
Bought it mostly cause the Six Dates With Barker bit, but discovered I actually liked the Lord Rustless part much better. The Odd Job on former is really good, others not so impressive. The best parts on Hark at Barker are not the Lord Rustless bits (never really liked Barker playing all those old haggard men!) but small sketches that were included here and there. Most were very, very good, some simply brilliant!

Prototype ‘Two Ronnies’.
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 23 November 2018Verified Purchase
Early days for RB. Be aware that much of the material from these episodes found its’ way into the ‘Two Ronnies’ scripting. There were also two (very similar) versions of the ‘Clarence’ episode - here entitled ‘1937 : The Removals Person’. (See ‘Seven of One’).

Brilliant
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 7 December 2020Verified Purchase
Some of Ronnie Barker's best work are in this set. The original raspberry blower and the original removals man episodes that would later turn into Clarence. Also the odd job man is outstanding.
