Focke-Wolfe Joke

bigduke6's recent thread of the video of a Griffon engined Spitfire and Focke-Wolfe 190 in mock aerial combat reminded me, for some reason, of the Focke-Wolfe joke that was told by Stan Boardman live on Des O'Connor's chat show, years ago. I remember seeing it at the time and finding it very funny, as did most people that I knew. Poor old Des O'Connor probably thought that it was the end of his television career as the show was being broadcast live.

Please, DO NOT watch this video if you are easily offended and please remember that it was said and intended as a joke and that is how most people in the UK took it.

I contacted Doug before posting this and he does not want this thread to become political or violate forum rules. Thank-you Doug.

Excellent! :thup::thup:

That was funny. 🤣

I believe that after this programme was broadcast live all future episodes of this chat show were prerecorded.

I got a good laugh from this, thank you! [emoji23]

A classic .........

All I can say is thank god I wasn't drinking coffee...probably need a new keyboard.

Thanks for posting OP
