Yeah mate, the bloke was really hilarious... in the 70's in NZ he played a character called Fred Dagg {a farmer} & he had 7 sons, all of them called Trev when he went to live in Aussie did he play that character over the ditch too ?A real talent was John Clarke mate.
You want some more comic talent. This bloke came from a law background.. a natural. His name Shaun Micallef. This is in my view his best character.. used to have me in stitches.
Did you get Full Frontal and before that Fast Forward across the ditch. I have them in my archive file. You can still see them on YT. Still belly laff stuff. Never saw Footrot Flats but wasnt there also a comic in the papers?Mate that was brilliant ... comedy is at it's best when it's really silly & cleverly done.
Haven't seen those shows, will check them out on YT - we got Mother & Son here though {Garry McDonald is a top actor}... one of my favourite comedy series, very funny.Did you get Full Frontal and before that Fast Forward across the ditch.

As you say Richie the chemistry between Maggie & Arthur was outstanding - Maggie was hilarious, she had a little bit of dementia, but totally played the forgetful card when it really suited her... Robert the dentist & his wife Liz were also very funny.Mal I loved Maggie in Mother & Son. Ruth Cracknell who played Maggie was a classicly trained actor. She and Gary McDonald had great chemistry. .. the reason the show had such a long run. The best role to play w'dve been the brother in law.
