Anyone remember The Krankies?

Re: Anyone remember The Krankies?

I didn't think they were funny really. I saw them in panto once. Earlier that day we were having dinner in a shop cafe and they came in. That was more exciting than seeing them in the pantomime.

I saw them in a pantomime too and they weren't that good. I didn't really like them to be honest though.

Hello. I feel a tad embarrassed to admit that I had a signed LP of The Krankies. Not my doing of course, but my parents. The Krankies where appearing in a local social club and my fabulous caring parents decided to get me this LP.

Used to love the Krankies - though the "little boy" used to make me feel uncomfortable - though a great act.

Yeah, the Krankies were part of Crackerjack in the Stu "Ooh, I could crush a grape" Francis days. Couple of years back, they were on the Children In Need video with Peter Kay and the Proclaimers (they were just in the 'audience of celebrities'), and David Tennant semi-famously, after recording his very first scene in Doctor Who, quipped "Right, that's it, the stand-in won't be needed....you can send Little Jimmie Krankie home..." - so they're fondly remembered.

It's Friday...it's 5 to 5...
It's Crackerjack!!!!
