This 8 episode season was broadcast from 16 September to 4 November 1972. Considering the age it is not going to be politically correct for today's standards.
The feature through the episodes is Charley Farley and Piggy Malone in the Yokel Murders aka "Done to Death".
There are two musical acts in each episode. The main act in each episode is Georgie Faith and Alan Price. Each of the other episodes has a different singer (including: Lindsay De Paul - the only one I've heard of). There is no variety act in this season, unlike
Two Ronnies - Series 1 [DVD
]. Still included are Mr Corbett's famous monologues.
The sketches include:
- Wrong wedding
- Ministry of pollution
- Driving test
- Substitute teacher
- Chagford Halt connection
- Drunken Party Political Broadcast
- Old School Chums Reunion
- BBC News - there's no news
- Pet Shop - Ted the Eagle
- Message for ...
- Church heckler
- Ambush on the Nile
The musical sketches are:
- Scout's Jamboree
- Richard Burton and Elizabeth Taylor
- Tooting Carman
- St Petersburg State Choir
- Shakespeare's Julius Caesar
- Change here for Victoria
- Johosophat and Jones

The disc comes with English subtitles and English only soundtrack.
This is another great series. I look forward to getting the next releases.
