Tommy Cooper - Episode 4

Whether it’s magical routines from a master of his craft, comedy sketches or songs from the beautiful Lynsey De Paul, this classic 1970s comedy show never fails to entertain. In episode 4 Tommy tries his hand at some sharp-shooting on stage, with results that would test the nerves of the hardiest soul. There’s another interview with David Hamilton – and despite the lack of success he enjoys here with his unhinged interviewee, you have to admit that Diddy David is persistent. One day he might even get a straight answer. There’s also a superb sketch, in which Tommy plays a long-serving character dropped from a popular soap opera, who is refusing to play his death scene as scripted. If you need cheering up or just fancy a laugh, look no further – Tommy Cooper is your man.
