There’s a screening of The Goodies: Snow White 2 at the BFI Southbank, part of their The TV Christmas Pantomime Event. It’s happening on the 28th December 2019…
The Crackerjack Pantomime: Robinson Crusoe
BBC 1975. Dir Robin Nash. With Peter Glaze, Don Maclean, Ed Stewart, Jan Hunt. 65min
Various BBC sitcom stars (John Laurie, John Inman, Windsor Davies and Don Estelle) joined the regular Crackerjack cast for this slapstick-heavy romp with a sprinkling of intentionally corny jokes, some of which may offend the sensibilities of a modern audience and demonstrate how things have changed.
+ The Goodies: Snow White 2
ITV 1981. Dir Bob Spiers. With Bill Oddie, Graeme Garden, Tim Brooke-Taylor. 25min
In their typical, lightning-paced and zany style, The Goodies brilliantly deconstruct the entire pantomime tradition.
