Dinner for One (1963 TV Short)
the funniest sketch i have ever seen
3 August 2002
when i was 2 and a half, my family moved to dusseldorf in germany while my dad worked in immigration. we moved back to england when i was six. i'm now nearly 15 and, thanks to satellite, watch 'dinner for one' every year. last year we watched it four times on four different german channels!

if (that's a big 'if') we miss it, we have a video of it that we watch later on. the sheer genius involved in this sketch is unrivalled even by the great monty python team. i talk about it all the time to me ill-educated friends, and my entire family joke about it all the time. i admit that the rest of britain has probably never even heard of 'dinner for one', but i must say that this is their loss. i am even considering writing to the BBC (british broadcasting corporation) and persuading them to air it on new years eve this year.

without a doubt i will be showing this to my family when i grow up, and i am certain that they will find it as entertaining as i do.

long live miss sophie, james, mr pommeroy, admiral von schneider, sir toby and mr winterbottom. same procedure as last year, ma'am?
