Before Monty Python's Flying Circus and The Goodies there was At Last the 1948 Show, the ground-breaking comedy sketch series starring John Cleese, Graham Chapman, Tim Brooke-Taylor, Marty Feldman, and Aimi MacDonald. In the final episodes, the troupe really come into their own, delivering future classic sketches such as ‘Four Yorkshiremen’, a brutal parody of the talk show style of David Frost (who served as the 1948 Show's executive producer!) and one of the show’s finest sketches, in which Marty Feldman’s Mr Pest torments John Cleese’s uptight commuter.
