Charlie Drake in Sinderella Very funny!!!. + Informações

An Extract from his most successful Series, The worker. This is part of an episode called A change is as good as a rest. This series was broadcast from 1965 to 1970. As unemployed Labourer he turns up at the Local labour Exchange(job Centre)to seek that perfect job, classic slapstick and comic situations he managed to find himself in,usually because of his disasterous attempt to do the job. The highlight of the show was for me and many others, his exchanges with Mr Pugh (Henry McGee) at the labour exchange Copyright remains with the original owners and performers etc.. + Informações

Broadcasting of the Charlie Drake Show by the BBC was cut short by a serious accident that occurred in 1961, during a live transmission. Drake had arranged for a bookcase to be set up in such a way that it would fall apart during a slapstick sketch in which he was pulled through it. It was later discovered that an over-enthusiastic workman had "mended" the bookcase before the broadcast. The actors working with him, unaware of what had happened, proceeded with the rest of the sketch which required that they pick him up and throw him through an open window. Drake fractured his skull and was unconscious for three days. It was two years before he returned to the screen.. + Informações

www.youtube.com #28-Most Discussed(Today)-Music-United Kingdom #37-Top Rated(Today)-Music-United Kingdom Charlie Drake (19 June 1925 -- 23 December 2006), was an English comedian, actor, writer and singer. With his small stature, curly red hair and liking for slapstick he was a popular comedian with children in his early years, becoming nationally-known for his "Hello, my darlings" catchphrase. Born Charles Edward Springall in the Elephant and Castle, Southwark, South London, he took his mother's maiden name for the stage and, later, television and film, achieving success as a comedian. Drake made his first appearance on stage at the age of eight, and after leaving school toured working men's clubs. After serving in the Royal Air Force during World War II, Drake turned professional and made his TV debut in The Centre Show in 1953. He then joined his wartime comrade Jack Edwardes to form a double act, named "Mick and Montmorency". In 1954 he appeared with Bob Monkhouse in the film "Fast and Loose". Drake was just 5' 1" tall, which lent itself to the stage persona he developed. Filming of the Charlie Drake Show by the BBC was cut short, however, by a serious accident that occurred in 1961, during a live transmission.
