Sound Effect comedy

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

During the 1960s a new series of 'sound effect' comedies began with Dick Lester, Spike Milligan and Peter Sellers's 'Running Jumping & Standing Still', continued through Eric Sykes's ' The Plank', Barbara Windsor's San Ferry Ann and included four films with Ronnie Barker: A Home Of Your Own, Futtock's End, The Picnic, and By The Sea.

The tradition went on through Benny Hill and continued with Mr. Bean.
