Theatrical Release Date: 1964 Release Date: March 12, 2007 Availability: Usually dispatched within 1-2 business days Condition: Two Disc Version: The Queen of the comic monologue in her prime performing her most cherished sketches and songs Joyce Grenfell was an institution, Queen of the comic monologue and an acclaimed performer on stage, radio and television. These TV shows, broadcast in 1964 and 1972, bear witness to her unique talent with a selection of hilarious songs, monologues and sketches from her one woman show. Joined as ever by her friend William Blezard on piano, Joyce performs all her well loved and memorable favourites including the inimitable Lumpy Latimer in the Old Girl's School Reunion, Mrs Fanshawe who glides stately as a galleon across the dancefloor, three lady choristers making a joyful noise in the Royal Albert Hall and of course, Young George, whose unspeakable and mysterious activities in The Nursury School produced the now famous catchphrase 'George, don't do that!'

'' George Don't Do That '' November 5, 2007 46 out of 46 found this review helpful
Joyce Grenfell - The BBC Collection [1964] It is wonderful this 2 disc DVD set has been released. Joyce Grenfell was beautiful, elegant, well spoken and a very clever lady who seemed ageless. Hinge and Bracket once said that when Joyce was 60 she looked 40. Joyce observed everyday people and turned all her observations into very funny and sometimes touching monologues and a collection of beautiful and funny songs, (All the words of the songs and monlogues are by Joyce herself). All the favourite monologues are here. 'Shirley's Girlfriend' who has a boyfriend Norm that drives a lorry with big ears, 'The Terrible Worrier' Mrs. Moss who wins a (dead) Rabbit at the raffle, but she doesn't want the rabbit, she thinks about leaving it on the bus ( in the end she 'posts' it through the window of a car). There is the wife of the vice chancellor of the Oxbridge university who sits in her book lined study with many group photographs around and a pair of crossed (H)oars! and of course the famous 'Nursery school sketch' where Neville is pretending to be a train and insists on ''getting into the station'' before joining his chums for story time, Tim has discovered he has some toast and marmalade in his pocket and is advised by Joyce not to eat it cause it is covered in ''Fuzzy bits'', of course we must mention George who's only contribution to the story time is to ....well ... i think it's best to say he is told ''George Don't do that''. The lovely songs are here too such as 'Stately As A Galleon' (We Sail Across The Floor), 'The Women On The Bus', 'Three Brothers', 'Time' (When I Was A Young Women There Was Always Time) and many more. Everything about this DVD is lovely, Joyce represents an England that was a much nicer place to live in and people were kinder to each other, Joyce Grenfell is enchanting and this DVD is a must for all fans Joyce.
