The much maligned dick emery - he was very much before his time.
watch this and then try to deny that the makers of shows such as the fast show and little britain took their inspiration from Dick Emery. Namely, he inevented characters who would be in a different situation each week, but would always end up saying their comedy catchphrase.
politically correct types dont seem to like his gay character these days but is that character any more unrealistic than his comedy vicar, or comedy randy old lady ?
