Few are better at reducing people to tears of mirth than Ronnie Barker. Here, in a classic compilation, is the incomparable laughter-maker with some of the great highlights from a stellar radio and TV career that spanned more than thirty years. From his early radio shows – Floggit’s, The Navy Lark and Lines from my Grandfather’s Forehead – to his television successes The Frost Report, Porridge, Open All Hours and of course The Two Ronnies, he entertained the nation with his versatility, quick-wittedness and sheer comic genius. This collection showcases Ronnie Barker at his brilliant best, encompassing songs, extracts from Porridge and Open All Hours and much-loved sketches from The Two Ronnies.

One of the greatest entertainers of his generation, Ronnie Barker was loved by millions for his roles in classic shows Open All Hours, Porridge and The Frost Report. Born in Bedford in 1929, Ronnie Barker began writing and performing in radio shows such as The Navy Lark. Barker met his comedy partner Ronnie Corbett while working on The Frost Report. Legend has it that they were signed up by the BBC after they impressed producers by filling in when a technical hitch occurred during the BAFTA awards. A gifted character actor as well as comedy writer, Barker went to star in classic sitcoms Open All Hours and Porridge.
