Ronnie Barker and Ronnie Corbett met for the first time at the Buckstone Club in the Haymarket, London, where Ronnie Corbett was serving drinks between acting jobs. They were invited by David Frost to appear in his new show, The Frost Report, with John Cleese, but the pair's big break came when they filled in for a few minutes during a technical hitch at an awards ceremony in 1970. In the audience was Bill Cotton, the Head of Light Entertainment for the BBC, and Sir Paul Fox, the Controller of BBC1. Cotton was so impressed by the duo that he turned to Fox and asked "How would you like those two on your network?". As a result, Barker and Corbett were given their own show by the BBC.
The Americans is an American television period drama series created and produced by former CIA officer Joe Weisberg. The series premiered in the United States on January 30, 2013, on the cable networkFX, and concluded its third season on April 22, 2015.
On March 31, 2015, FX renewed the series for a fourth season consisting of 13 episodes to premiere on March 16, 2016.
Production
Conception
The Americans was created by Joe Weisberg, a former CIA officer. Despite its spy setting, Weisberg aimed to tell the story of a marriage. The series focuses on the personal and professional lives of the Jennings, sometimes incorporating real-life events into the narrative. The show's creator has described the series as being ultimately about a marriage. "The Americans is at its core a marriage story. International relations is just an allegory for the human relations. Sometimes, when you're struggling in your marriage or with your kid, it feels like life or death. For Philip and Elizabeth, it often is." Executive producer Joel Fields described the series as working different levels of reality: the fictional world of the marriage between Philip and Elizabeth, and the real world involving the characters' experiences during the Cold War.
The second season of the American television drama series The Americans aired from February 26 through May 21, 2014, on FX, and consisted of 13 episodes. The series was renewed for a second season on February 21, 2013.
Americans are citizens of the United States of America. The country is home to people of many different national origins. As a result, most Americans do not equate their nationality with ethnicity, but with citizenship and allegiance. Although citizens make up the majority of Americans, non-citizen residents, dual citizens, and expatriates may also claim an American identity.
Despite its multi-ethnic composition, the culture of the United States held in common by most Americans can also be referred to as mainstreamAmerican culture, a Western culture largely derived from the traditions of Northern and Western European colonists, settlers, and immigrants. It also includes influences of African-American culture. Westward expansion integrated the Creoles and Cajuns of Louisiana and the Hispanos of the Southwest and brought close contact with the culture of Mexico. Large-scale immigration in the late 19th and early 20th centuries from Southern and Eastern Europe introduced a variety of elements. Immigration from Asia, Africa, and Latin America has also had impact. A cultural melting pot, or pluralistic salad bowl, describes the way in which generations of Americans have celebrated and exchanged distinctive cultural characteristics.

Ronnie Barker and Ronnie Corbett met for the first time at the Buckstone Club in the Haymarket, London, where Ronnie Corbett was serving drinks between acting jobs. They were invited by David Frost to appear in his new show, The Frost Report, with John Cleese, but the pair's big break came when they filled in for a few minutes during a technical hitch at an awards ceremony in 1970. In the audience was Bill Cotton, the Head of Light Entertainment for the BBC, and Sir Paul Fox, the Controller of BBC1. Cotton was so impressed by the duo that he turned to Fox and asked "How would you like those two on your network?". As a result, Barker and Corbett were given their own show by the BBC.

[Slug] I'm not a player I throw up a lot - "I know" The wicked walk amongst us and you don't know me that well Prolly shouldn't trust the story I tell I'm gonna speak it how I saw it because I call you my friend So take a drink from the gauntlet and sit down whence Once upon a time before gas masks at school Back when cash was the golden rule There were two super heroes who tried to bring love to the earth One was slug the other one was Murs [Murs] The team s and m not for sadomasochism But trying to save the innocent from the master's prison Airwaves disaster-ridden, we wear masks for a livin And we make dope songs, the task we were given We're to air out the main stream brain washed zombies Who wanna smoke blunts and live with their mommies Two mouths to feed no urge to succeed Cause the music don't inspire him to go and take the lead So... [Slug] Lets hit the streets Catch bullets with our teeth Get the kitten out the tree Bring evil to its knees Clean its mouth out with bleach and send it on its way Bring the children a better day [Murs] So they can go out and play don't have to be players Now the music is so cold that they listen to it with layers So we try to warm em up, gamma-blast through the speakers Cause we 'Leaders of the New', how about our 'Sound of Zeekers'? And we drownin out the weaker, findin rhymes like heat-seekers From the blast that's in the wrists, combattin evil With some wax in our fist, on tracks we don't miss Uncanny classic hits, who's the team that can't be dissed? [Chorus:Slug] Its the two Its the two (You can not see it) The two (The keepers of the wisdom and power) Its the two (You can not see it) [Murs] Now day in day out We fought continuous bouts At every corner of the world where we heard evil shout Hearts filled with courage bank accounts full of doubt We gotta find a way to make it all balance out [Slug] Now even heroes gotta eat and put fuel in the tummy So it started getting real when the two ran out of money And if you saw them you wouldn't be able to tell Did a fine job saving mankind from hell [Murs] Well we saved the world and brought joy to the masses But couldn't save ourselves from the government and taxes And the justice league so we had to pay dues When we couldn't ante up the kicked us out the crew Now in the hood there were a few who did appreciate the saga But didn't have the ends to fund this armada So now we were the two with no H2 And open to attack from every wack crew [Slug] And the fateful day came could it be That two had been beat Do they face defeat Overcooked time to climb out of the book Had a grasp let go lost grip when it got shook The magic Cadillac eats a lot of gas Rent and food the two had no cash So they had to get jobs at a record store And every thing went back to how it was before [Chorus:Slug] They were the two (You can not see it) We were the two (The keepers of the wisdom and power) Where are the two (You can not see it) Now its up to you [Slug] And the moral to our stupid little song is It doesn't matter who's the smartest or the strongest Love ain't enough for anyone to see it through So make all checks and money orders payable to who The two (You can not see it) Its the two (The keepers of the wisdom and power) The two (You can not see it) Its the two (The keepers of the wisdom and power)
