Arthur Haynes - Volume 3 DVD

| DVD

Reigning supreme for almost a decade as ITV's biggest comedian, Arthur Haynes was one of the most influential and popular comics that television has ever seen. His shows remained firmly in the top ten until his untimely death in 1966 robbed the world of a comedy genius. Lack of repeats ensured that subsequent generations were denied Haynes comedic brilliance - until now. Featuring wickedly funny scripts from Alf Garnett creator Johnny Speight, they invariably drew on the familiar class antagonism which he would hone to perfection on Till Death Us Do Part. Haynes robust... working-class delivery was inspired never more so than in the character of Hobo Haynes, a belligerent, heavily decorated tramp fond of recounting tales of patriotic bravery whilst being up to me neck in muck and bullets. This third great collection of episodes, this time from 1962, returns him to his rightful place among the comedy greats. [show more]

Third volume of episodes from the Johnny Speight-scripted comedy sketch series starring the popular English comedian, Arthur Haynes. The show, which ran from 1957 until its star's untimely death in 1966, was performed on stage and featured a mixture of sketches, music and guest appearances. It quickly became one of ITV's biggest successes and established Haynes as a household name, along with his 'straight man', Nicholas Parsons. The episodes included in this collection date from 1962 and capture Haynes at the peak of his comedic powers.
