Nov 20, 2008 - "original goons" *cough*bentine*cough* But its too late to kick up a fuss now. As a belated goon, or Goon of the 21st century, I'm genuinely sad i missed 50s-70s, purely for goons.

Nov 26, 2008 - often gets overlooked that spike milligan wrote all this - sure peter sellers was a genius, but milligan was an uber-genius!

Nov 27, 2008 - Look for Peter Sellers to start breaking up in the background at 6:50 as he reads the script to himself..and Harry Secombe is talking. Most fun! Thanks for posting!

Dec 19, 2008 - Nice. I've got the album of this show. It's interesting to see what they were actually doing.

Jan 9, 2009 - He left the show so early that they weren't even recording it then! I barely count him as a goon.

Apr 6, 2009 - I could be wrong but I believe he was dead by the time this was recorded. Wallace Greenslade (who was the announcer for the majority of the series) was definately dead, hence Andrew Timothy's appearance.

Apr 17, 2009 - The whole thing about the queen...and saying that Harry Secombe will fill in for her is funny enough, but to do it IN FRONT OF THE QUEEN is just brilliant

Apr 18, 2009 - Then he sent the Prince of Wales a telegram saying "I suppose knighthood is out of the question." Spike ended up getting his knighthood, as the Prince was a big fan.

Jun 1, 2009 - I love The Goons, but this "Last Goon Show Of All" is one of the least funny ever recorded, IMO.
RABB2 Says:
Jun 5, 2009 - this particular recording has got quite a bit missing from it if you check out the bbc iplayer for the goon show you can listen to the entire show with not bad cuts

Jun 7, 2009 - @jkarani - Bentine died 22 years after this was recorded. At the time he was working on what would be 'Potty Time'. He is mentioned in this show as having "big parts" and "no room for the inside leg".
jkarani Says:
Jun 7, 2009 - Ah ok. Didn't realise that.
dacogboy Says:
Jun 26, 2009 - Harlech Television is what ITV1 in Wales used to be back in the late sixties, supposedly. "I am empowered by the governors of BBC wireless to say Good Evening... and in that order."
