“…AND IT’S GOODNIGHT FROM HIM.”
Throughout the 1970s and 1980s, Ronnie Barker and Ronnie Corbett’s magnificent partnership became a cherished British institution. Their Christmas Specials were particularly eagerly awaited and, for many, they were the highlight of festive television schedules. The 1987 Christmas Special proved to be The Two Ronnies last ever full show together, but by then they had left so many cherished memories.
The Christmas Specials features extra special guests – such as Elton John, David Essex and Elaine Paige – and great Christmas fun, as well as the regular Two Ronnies fare of the opening and closing news headlines, party, allotment and pub sketches and Ronnie Corbett’s shaggy dog monologues.
This collection will bring back all the memories of those shows including such highlights as Chas and Dave; The Milkman’s Christmas Address To The Nation; Christmas Day In The Yukon; Game For A Trial; The Tree – an Extra-Festival encounter of the Christmas Kind and Pinocchio II – Killer Doll.

The Two Ronnies Christmas Specials are fabulous entertainment. The shows on the DVD, however, cover only a few of the christmas programmes, from the 1970s and the 1980s, with a variety of amusing seasonal sketches, and an interesting selection of guest music artists. One major criticism of this two-disc package is that there could have been more of Barkers and Corbetts christmas shows on these discs. The selected shows are small in contrast with all the other Two Ronnies christmas shows. As a result, the title of The Two Ronnies "Complete" Christmas Specials is quite incorrect, and should be re-titled The Two Ronnies "Selected" Christmas Specials. All the other wonderful Christmas specials, that Barker and Corbett entertained audiences with, have been sadly overlooked. The other criticism is the lack of special features on the discs. All in all, this double disc offering is quite entertaining, but is also quite disappointing.
