  • Pretty much every single on their song and/or dance routines:
    • Eric and Ernie make breakfast. While dancing. To the tune of "The Stripper".
    • The "Singing in the Rain" routine.
    • Dancing with Tom Jones.
    • Dressed as flapper girls for "Hey Big Spender" (Christmas Special 1975)
    • The Wishing Well Song
  • The Grieg Piano Concerto sketch with Andrew Preview Andre Previn.
    • It's gotten to the point that it's the only Christmas episode to ever get replayed, just because of that one sketch.
  • (Eric is at the window as we hear an ambulance hurtle past outside, siren blaring)[1]

Eric: He'll not sell much ice-cream going at that speed!

  • Eric Morecambe. Just Eric Morecambe. Probably the funniest man who ever existed and ever will exist. His timing, expressions and jokes were always absolutely perfect.
  • The Anthony and Cleopatra sketch (co-starring Glenda Jackson).

Cleo: All men are fools and what makes them so is having beauty like what I have got!

  1. ↑ In the UK at the time most ice cream vans were converted ambulances rather than purpose built vehicles, often with the siren kept intact and used for advertising.
