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.

What do you do when a customer walks into your shop and asks for 'cack' or for 'parri' -- or indeed for a 'pee'? A (very wealthy) Arab walks into the Mini Market. His wife has armed him with a shopping list (and asked him to run an errand for her later). But communication can be a problem as pronunciation is not that particular customer's forte... (Fortunately for the shop owner, his wife is there to help him. Despite his condescending attitude towards her, it seems she is twice as clever as he is...) Level: C1 -- C2. Topic: Shopping, Pronunciation. Taken from the BBC TV Series 'The Two Ronnies'.

[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)
