- No Copyright Infringement Intended! This is for entertainment purposes only. I did not upload the whole show. Hilarious scene from "Here's Lucy" with Lucille Ball and my favorite hollywood couple Elizabeth Taylor & Richard Burton in "Lucy Meets The Burtons" (1970)
A couple notes: It cost Lucy $1,500 a day for insuarance when wearing the diamond. You can hear Lucy's husband, Director Gary Morton, laughing loudly in the background over everyone else during certain sequences. In Elizabeth's Biography, Richard at first didn't really like Lucy but once he understood how much hard work she did he told Lucy and Gary at a party, "I want to do your show" & Elizabeth chimed in, "It's true. He loves your show." Lucy was stunned and 6 weeks later they appeared. - Zábava

The person who thought of having Taylor and Burton on this show is a genius. :D
I watched this for the first time today and I nearly melted when Richard kissed Lucy on the cheek. Ok, I did melt.
Lucy: "You wash your hair in champagne!?! Oh really? I wash my hair in beer!"
I LOVE that line!!! lol
This episode of "Here's Lucy" was the highest rated for the entire series - the show ranked #3 for the 1970-71 season-
They are together now. Heaven just got a bit louder :)
I can see why Fran Fine would think this was Taylor's best work.
This was hysterical. I've always enjoyed Liz doing comedy. She is so good at it... and like so many others here... Liz & Dick should have done more comedy. I haven't laughed this hard in a very long time.
Elizabeth Taylor was a very classy woman and Lucy was hysterical.
Rest In Peace Elizabeth Taylor, you're always in my heart forever x x x x
Thanks for posting this! Though I recall when Elizabeth Taylor appeared on "The Tonight Show" in Johnny Carson's final season, she was asked how she liked working with Lucy on her show, and Taylor replied, "Uh, I didn't." She went on to detail how she found Lucy a bit bossy and unfriendly, and how Lucy sort of manhandled her when blocking out the show, like Taylor was some no-name background extra.
My three favourite love Elizabeth Taylor and Richard Burton my favourite couple. And Lucille Ball is hysterical as ever. Brilliant.
I just love Elizabeth and Lucy!
That was funny and adorable.
Even though this bit was obviously 'borrowed' from I Love Lucy, it worked. Very funny!
This was the highest rating episode of the the whole series. Lucille was less than pleased because she was not the attraction,,, it was the Battling Burtons. HA!
Classic! i never knew they were on here. i was a youngster back then
How did I know that they were going to use that old routine ? Old but always a cack when performed properly. Burton and Taylor are just brilliant, the epitome of class.
I saw this long ago and could never understand why Burton and Taylor didn't do more comedy.
Hahaha I wash my hair in beer!! Lmao
I remember it well, everyone watched it, Lucita pulled off a grand slam!

... this episode could NOT fail with Liz and Richard on it. I bet the ratings went thru the roof when it was aired years ago. Yes, you're right, the person was a genius who thought to have the Burton's on the show. Historical episode !
This episode is the first episode of the Third season of Here's Lucy, which is being released on DVD June 15, 2010. Also, The Official Second Season of The Lucy Show is being released on July 13, 2010!
From what I've read, it was a case of Lucy and Burton's acting styles clashing. He was the epitome of a method actor, who liked to get on stage and let the *magic* happen, while she liked to have everything mapped out and rehearse, until every last detail was set in cement. They were both respectively the absolute best at what they did, but the experience was probably mutually frustrating for them both Similar situation occurred ten years earlier when Tallulah Bankhead appeared on "I Love Lucy"
THANKS FOR POST!!
THIS SO FUNNY......OMG I AM SO LAME I AM 11 AND I THINK THIS IS FUNNY!
If there is a woman prettier than Elizabeth Taylor,I don't want to meet her!
@Mariek9 Yes! In fact, it was the debut episode of the 1970-71 season (and "Here's Lucy's" third).
@Drblooter99 --I think it is precisely those qualities you mentioned in regards to Mr. Burton, which makes this episode work, and easily one of the best and funniest of the series.
Hilarious! RIP Liz!
I would just like to point out, I have seen something similar to the whole Lucy's hand filling in for another hand. Except they were handcuffed. And he was Cuban. And named Ricky. And it was her first series.
@level242 Hello . Agreed. I read that Liz was kinda-sorta in away a bit jealous of Ava Gardner during the time Richard filmed "Night of the Iguana." Liz stated that she thought Ava Gardner is really beautiful.
I've never seen this eposide.
Aaaaaaaahahahahahahahahahaha!!!!!! Classic!
can you tell me the title of Elizabeth's biography?
please upload the whole show, what year was it, I can remember it.
"mrspatrickcampbell" GO FUCK YOURSELF! Elizabeth Taylor did more for Aids victims than anyone else in the world, you ignorant bitch! She is not burning in Hell but SHINNING in HEAVEN. God bless you Elizabeth.
Have you heard the word amputation?

@MissClassicTV1 Yer i heard that Richard didn't really like Lucy that much, i'm suprised he wanted to do it and all that just because a puppy had gone missing LOL!!!!
Oh God that was hilarious. The genius of Ball, Taylor, and Burton in one episode. Classic!!! I read in Kathleen Brady's book titled; "Lucille: The Life of Lucille Ball" that Lucy was quite a pill on set and difficult to work with. Burton wrote before filming the episode: "I loathe her today but now I also pity her...she can thank her lucky stars that I am not drinking. There is a chance that I might have killed her" (Brady p. 310).
@happiihoneii actually it was Elizabeth & Richard that talked to Lucy about it at a party. Shockingly, after everything Richard said about Lucy, he said he wanted to do her show. Lucy was shocked. Elizabeth replied, "It's true!" But once they were on, that's when the chit hit the fan. Lucy & Gary were invited to The Burton's place and when they got there, there were police and dogs swarming the area. Lucy thought the Krupp diamond was stolen but really one of their puppies have gone missing!
@RainOrShineFun I would also take lightly skilled actors acting like they like each other because of the dictates of the script and director.
Burton, not surprisingly, contributes nothing to the comedy here. He looks uncomfortable and the astonishing voice and intense, ravaged face is ill-suited to light comedy.
