A very not-funny man. But it's become taboo to actually say that. Spike is/was not funny. There, I've said it. He got lucky with his career, but has a certain arrogance when you see his true character shine through during his many TV interviews. I see a quite a selfish man, who believes all the platitudes that have been voiced around him. He was definitely of a depressive nature, but he probably suffered from what we would now call PTSD, that is not his fault obviously. There was 'a war on', as they used to say. So humour is very subjective. Personally, I never 'got' Terence Alan Milligan's sense of humour. I'm fairly sure many people will disagree, but 'Spike' was not funny and had quite a dark side professionally and personally. However, rest in peace Terence. Love and peace.

Great tune, second only to prettiest eyes

What a clown frost is in this interview. Why didn’t you give peace a chance. 😅😅😅

I wonder if they would have asked Churchill why was the Bismarck sunk.

at 6:28 is so key to why many new people succeed, 'ignorance'....not knowing the odds against you. His answer here sums it all up sweetly.

Sad that so little footage of such a giant of music.

It's incredible that he made Citizen Kane when he was 25. The sophistication and wisdom he had at that age is stunning.

Thatcher is the greatest PM this country ever had!

Fantastic stuff. I've really enjoyed all your B7 videos. Thank you for them. Have you heard that there's hopefully going to be a blu-ray release starting from later this year? Exciting times!😊

I agree with Mrs Thatcher

Now look at the state of England. The King & Government has handed our country over to everyone non English/British.

You are doing God's work here.

I purchased my one and only Spike Milligan book called The Compulsive Spike Milligan whilst checking in for my flight at Gatwick Airport, I only purchase this said book as my suitcase was 1lb 9 Oz underweight and I like getting my full quota of weight for which I paid for. I also purchase a set of weighing scales for which I left with the checking in assistant '' they were extremely pleased indeed.

Wait! So Chandler had Marlowe live where Hammett lived while he was writing The Maltese Falcon?

i can remember watching this on tv years ago. very sad ending. i visited dennis potter's memorial stone in ross on wye. it was looking a bit grimy so i gave it a clean up.

A British God

For my 80th birthday my son Phil sent me the almost complete Q series totally non P.C .

Why wasn’t this on American television

Great stuff

I loved listening to the Goon Show on the radio when I was young and can still listen to it and laugh so much all these years later We had humour in our lives then Not allowed too now We are liveing in a clowns world They took away our freedom even the media tells us what they are told too People go on about how China and Russia treat their own people Have a look at life in australia it's no better

What a good idea!

It was a war crime, as Bruce Robinson confirmed.

Baddiel, Spike was making those jokes so that makes it alright.

Why is she tolerating this line of questioning from this interviewer

70 odd years later. we might of got a bit more sophisticated now, but the music still spells the simple truth, i remember the 60s 70s in the UK grim times but there was a fierce energy that punk tapped into, we was sick of the same old same,we wanted to rip it down and start again naive we was but that spirit call it outlook has stayed with me, my body may be past it but in my heart of hearts nothings changed,, sorry went onto one there love the old blues ive even learned tp play the harmonica it brings me such pleasure its like a form of meditation, there i go rambling again,BLUES MUUUSICK IS GOOD xxxx

Amazing. Bless you for this. The "DUEL" suite is especially weird and haunting. More of this sort of thing!

Spike Milligan meets Inspector Clouseau in the Pink Panther Movie would have been comedy madness You Know.

Balls of this woman. And as if the Argies wouldn't have done the same!!!

The best Season, bar none

The best season

One of my greatest regrets was not going to the Cavern in Liverpool to see Big Bill Broonzy. I was a young lad old working in solicitors office in Castle Street. It was 1956/7.

I wish all the political correctness would piss off and we could all laugh at ourselves again.

JEEEEZUS! The best interview of Orson Welles that I have ever seen! I can't thank you enough. The interviewer was great too.

Thanks for sharing this. Is the second part on CZcams? I can't find It...

Are people talking politcal correctness?! With spike milligan?! That's ludicrous.

so a nazi that maybe left and travelled outside a battlefiled was a civilian and innocent, you are not very smart I gather, and maybe equally uneducated. This was an enemy warship, and an enemy warship is a threat, and t was sunk, that was a good thing for the british, it is however a tragic fact that all warfare costs lives on noth sides. it had to be sunk

Still fantastic

20 years to master a field, or you can get the best and learn everything that there is in a day 🙌😎

Left wing toss pot, deliberate mistake or accidental mistake. What a fkn @sshole I had friends killed in that war you clown

Frost, owned.

The British wsy😊

He could be a nasty piece of work along with Peter Sellers. Milligan lost his temper with Harry Hill when all Hill did was to say how much he admired Milligan's work.

saw them live during their carry on up the charts tour in wembley. this was the last song of the night and i swear the whole audience was on their feet singing along. such a special moment

Harmonica'ok'man'boy

Genius

I love this man

I love that for the segment from 'Stardrive' you replaced the godawful 'scale up a jpeg of 3 pursuit ships' shot for one of the far superior model shots. (Even the POV from the engine section looks better than the one I'm thinking of.) Wish that could've been done for the physical/digital releases too.

Absolutely addicted to these B7 tracks especially Series A - great compilation ! Missing is the infamous music build-up crescendo Sub-commander Raiker's rebuke at Blake "SAY It !"thats sadly missing but great work

David frost was clearly feeding an agenda in this terrible interview...He always has been a terrible interviewer....
