Fork handles.
We watched a lot of the mainstream 70s comedy in our house - Ronnies, Carry Ons, M & Wise. It meant, of course, that I learned to innuendo almost before I could walk.

My dad used to cry with laughter at Tommy Cooper - before Tommy had even got the gag out!
I loved the Ronnies.
Mine loved Frankie Howerd apparently. I was watching FH in some 'Carry on' clips today...

I got a bit of a shock at the intro from Ronnie Barker; he lost so much weight! He was a shadow of himself. Was he ill?
Great clip! Did they use that same pub setting in "Men Behaving Badly"? It looks identical.
Glad to hear "Canada Dry" in there. Funny stuff.

I don't know about RB, Kat, but yes, he does look very different. As for that bar - I should think the BBC have used it for many shows!
