Peter Cook And Dudley Moore – The Lost Tapes (Channel 4 Comedy)
Peter Cook and Dudley Moore are commonly regarded as the greatest comic double act that Britain has ever produced. However, it is less commonly known that in 1971, at the height of their careers, they spent eleven months in Australia touring their latest stage show, Behind the Fridge and writing and starring in two TV specials (of the same name) never seen in Britain at the time.
Pete and Dud: The Lost Tapes is a one-hour compilation of best from these two Behind the Fridge specials. Both shows were recorded in Melbourne, in early November 1971 and broadcast later that month on Australian network, Channel Nine. But the shows were never broadcast in the UK and spent the next 34 years in Channel Nine’s Melbourne archive.
Pete and Dud: The Lost Tapes captures Cook and Moore at their very best, providing us with another opportunity to witness their unique and dynamic chemistry at time when their partnership was at its strongest.
