Mick And Montmorency

[mikey4444]

Can anyone remember watching this couple when they were growing up in the 50's ?

I was an enormous fan as a young boy. I have been trying to find some film of them, but without success. Can anyone help please ?

Yes, I remember them Mikey. Mick, of course, was Charlie Drake but I can't remember who Montmorency was.

[bhg481]

Wikipedia says Jack Edwardes was Montmorency.

I am still looking on the 'net, for some film. Fingers crossed !

According to IMDB in this film Charlie Drake was Idle Montmerency and Jack Edwards was Michaela the cook

Still no luck on youtube though.

A rather grainy short video clip and a burst of the theme tune on this link.

Mamy....I saw that link early this morning, but I can't play the video link.

It is downloading as a .ram file, which I have never heard of. How did you get it to play ?

[Mamyalynne]

as I clicked it it downloaded, then I simply clicked 'open' - and it played. It's quite poor quality and I wouldn't worry if you can't see it.

Mamy...when I click open, all I get is an error notice, saying ::

The file has an extension (.ram) that Windows Media Player can't play, etc,etc.

The .ram format is a RealMedia file. You theoretically need RealPlayer on your computer to view it but it's horrid, bloated software. However there's some lovely software called Real Alternative which does the job just as well. It's what I install onto my computer to ensure that I can view (or listen to) files which were recorded (often a long time ago) using the RealMedia format:
