The World of Beachcomber(1968)

The World of Beachcomber Synopsis

The World of Beachcomber was a surreal television comedy show produced by the BBC, inspired by the Beachcomber column in the Daily Express newspaper. The show, like the column, consisted of a series of unrelated pieces of humour. Links between the items were provided by Spike Milligan, dressed in a smoking jacket and cap, as in the cartoon logo above the newspaper column. The other actors were a Who's Who of British comedy of the time, encompassing almost every supporting player seen or heard in comedy, not excluding people of diminutive stature.

The World of Beachcomber (1968) is a comedy series that premiered on January 22, 1968, spanning 2 seasons and 19 episodes. It stars Spike Milligan, Frank Thornton, Leon Thau and Julian Orchard. Viewers rate it 9.0 out of 10 across 1 ratings.
