The mooted Jonathan Ross hosted 'tribute' to Pete and Dud is finally surfacing [05 Jun 2010|11:52pm]

[ mood | cynical ]

JONATHAN Ross is to front a tribute to comedians Dudley Moore and Peter Cook - in one of his last shows before leaving the BBC.

Pete and Dud: The Lost Sketches will feature live performances of the pair's work by comics such as Angus Deayton and Adrian Edmondson, as well as interviews.

It airs this month to mark 40 years since the BBC erased 13 of the 23 episodes from the duo's show Not Only But Also as it cleared archives.


From The Sun. (Sorry.)

Scans, icons, and news stuff [17 Mar 2009|04:10am]

scarlett_h
Hey! I've posted five scans in my Good Evening gallery, made some new icons and a wallpaper, and rounded up some links about the new plaque and new info about how Cook and Moore were almost prosecuted for Derek And Clive (Live). It's nice seeing the guys in the news! :)

hello all.

thisi s a bito f a plea for help, my friend runs a site about old uk videos ad one of the videos listed on his database is called "Peter Cook & Co". but noone on the site has ever seen a copy in the flesh other than in old video catalogues..so i was wondering if anyone has this video or has ever seen it?

here's a small scan of the cover from a magazine and the cast and date it supposedly came out
http://www.pre-cert.co.uk/cgi-bin/cms/Film/56746

any info on this video would be great! if it idd indeed get released i must track down a copy.

thanks

Spirit is willing but abilities lacking greatly [27 Aug 2008|09:51pm]

hallo!

i thought a nice gift to you all would be to upload the two peter cook albums i own (the misty mister wisty & Why Bother)

regretfully i am dreadful with computers so could one of you either help me or i could just send you the albvums via email and YOU put them up for me. hopefully in a way that members can download the tracks.

if you want any info on these albums don't hesitate to ask.

Yours

Secret Policeman's Ball icons [08 Jul 2007|06:25pm]

annacoriander
Hello! I've been having a great old time today, rewatching the Secret Policeman's Ball and generally spending far too much time in front of screens.
Here's the result: 14 icons, some picture-y, some quote-y.

[1-6][Pictures! Michael Palin, John Cleese, Peter Cook]
[7-14][Quotes - mainly Peter Cook, amongst others]

I've got a viper in this box, you know... )

Happy Sunday! :D

Hi there,
The post-box scene is probably my favourite Bedazzled moment, so i was wondering if
anyone has a bigger version of this screencap (or one similar to it) . Please?

i was just wondering if anyone knows any more about the lp/ep magnolia-opus c1 ft. pete and dud. 
my boss found it the otherday, i work in a record shop, and thought it some folk album until he turned it other and saw it featured pete and dud talking about magnolia picture frames, it turned out the guy who owned the record worked for the company, but i was wondering if anyone has ever seen it before or knows the value of such an lp as it features in no record price guides nor does it on any peter cook discographies. if i can i'll try and get the details and a photo of it..it's a real oddity.

hello.

Sorry for my English (I'm from russia).

Would you say can I read "The letters from Dudley" Moore in I'net? Or, may be, another books about him?

I know that is the community of mr.Cook but I thing may be you know. They was a friend.

Thank you very much.
Mary

Hey all! I got a scanner for Christmas (Season's Greeblings to everyone, btw!) and went kinda crazy scanning pics in from Wendy Cook's recent biography/memoir/whatever. I haven't added captions to the pics yet (I really need some sleep now!) - and there are other little tidbits around the site that I need to update - but despite the "excuse our dust"-ness of the site, I'm in the Christmas spirit and just want to share the Cookie love with you cool peeps. :)

Pictures! Enjoy! Feel free to make icons, artsy stuff, that sort of thing, if you wanna. :)

Cheery bye, Scarlett

Humble request? [25 Nov 2006|12:20pm]

ridiculii
I thought that it'd be best to ask this community if anyone had a larger version of this picture:

Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting

I had it ages ago, but it seems to have disappeared from both my computer and the internet. Hm.

Request [29 Sep 2006|07:22pm]

[ mood | calm ]

Hi all, fantastic to see a community for the wonderful Mr. Cook! I was wondering if I could be very cheeky and ask any members if they would be able to make me some Peter Cook icons, preferably with pics from this Parkinson interview - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yzazJqOV_Eg

I'd really appreciate anything you could come up with - I don't have the equipment or the knowhow to do it myself! :-)

Hello hello I'm back again [01 Aug 2006|08:51am]

Sorry this community has been a bit dead lately, I am a rubbish moderator. :( Thanks to the lovely peeps who have posted icons etc, I shall try and post news more often, and if anyone else has anything to say please go ahead and post!

A snippet to be going on with: Peter Cook’s first wife Wendy is to publish her memoirs, breaking her 35-year silence over their tempestuous marriage.

Biographies aren't always my sort of thing to be honest, as the 'usually miserable true story behind people who make me happy' thing upsets me a bit, (I mean obviously I know people are human, I just don't always want to sit down and read a book about it really) but if anyone's got a right to write such books it's an ex-wife I suppose and the whole point of this one appears to be that it will be more positive than the usual story.
