A British tradition

I don't even know what kind of slapstick you call this but the spirit of the disaster prone Frank Spencer is a tradition that was handed down from Norman Wisdom to here with Michael Crawford and later to Lee Evans has proven to be a formulae that has value for your funny bone dollar. Michele Dotrice is also a very good straight woman foil to Crawford as Frank's ever suffering wife Betty.
One annoyance as an off shoot was the series success paved the way for a plethora of Frank Spencer impersonators as plentiful at one stage as Elvis impersonators, each one more awful than the last. That aside, this is one of those British comedies of the seventies well deserving of the term "classic". Physical comedy par excellance
