Do Not Adjust Your Set

1960s British tv comedy series

Sketch based show created by some of the best British comedians, like David Jason, Michael Palin or Terry Jones. Programme started as show mainly for the kids, but it turned out that adult viewers were most of the audience.

Second of the Monty Python’s Flying Circus predecessors (along with At Last the 1948 Show) was primarly created for the kids, but as the creators stated the station was receiving many complains from adult viewers that they can’t get back from work on time to watch Do Not Adjust Your Set. At it can be seen that in first episodes the jokes were rather simple and with time they have improved for adult viewers.

In each episode Bonzo Dog Doo-Dah Band performed a song, which made the sketches separated and didn’t really help much (at least for the comedy value), but Eric Idle, Terry Jones and Michael Palin did show their unique sense of humour in this oldie.
