Fork 'Andles...

[Douglas McMann]

A bit of humour for those of a certain vintage...

BARKER: Four Candles!

CORBETT: Four Candles?

BARKER: Four Candles.

(Ronnie Corbett makes for a box, and gets out four candles. He places them on the counter)

BARKER: No, four candles!

CORBETT (confused): Well there you are, four candles!

BARKER: No, fork 'andles! 'Andles for forks!

...an absolute classic....

Strange effect, Dougie. How did you do it?

and they were actually shot in daylight Rob, sitting in a sunny windowsill, exposed for the candles, hence the reason the background has come out black...

 

[Rob MacKillop]

OK. Thanks. It worked out well.

 

[Ivar Dahl-Larsen]

OK. Thanks. It worked out well.

Got to agree with the musician

 

[Rob MacKillop]

Always a wise choice...

Nice interpretation, well done. Pete introduced us to this famous sketch.
