A Life in Pieces - Sir Arthur Streeb-Greebling (Peter Cook) - The Twelve Days of Christmas

A perfect Christmas Day treat!


A Life In Pieces is a series of twelve five minute shows, originally broadcast on BBC2 at Christmas 1990. The series features Sir Arthur Streeb-Greebling, being interviewed by Ludovic Kennedy, based loosely around The Twelve Days of Christmas.

These copies are digitised from a VHS recording, and so are not top quality, but they're entirely watchable.

Episodes:

01. Partridge in a Pear Tree
02. Turtle Doves
03. French Hens
04. Calling Birds
05. Gold Rings
06. Geese A-Laying
07. Swans A-Swimming
08. Maids A-Milking
09. Drummers Drumming
10. Pipers Piping
11. Ladies Dancing
12. Lords A-Leaping

 

Note that these are also available as audio only in the Peter Cook thread here. I think the video adds quite a bit to Sir Arthur.
