Description

Two jokes - no visuals, just written on title cards.

"There's a fortune awaiting the man who invents a flat sided garden pea that won't slip off a knife."

"Say Liz, is there hair oil in this can?" - "Lord sakes, no! That's gum." "Blime, that's why I can't git me 'at orf."

British Pathe captured many extraordinary events on film over its 80 year history but sometimes the cameras were switched on when tragedy struck.

Death Row
The Duke of Edinburgh has many talents, but it is his unique way with words that often receives the most attention.

The great politician and orator Winston Churchill left behind a sea of humourous quips and discerning quotes. We remember some of his finest epigrams and witty ripostes.
Churchill

Life before health and safety laws; men worked at huge heights, balancing on girders and cranes all in order to help build the world's tallest skyscrapers.
