The Armstrong and Miller Show | Olden Days Musician Sings 'Gonna Take You To A Gay Bar'

A bold pianist tries to jazz things up for his persistently traditional audience, by playing a couple of songs they are unlikely to have heard before.

I've lost track how many times I have watched this and it is still hilarious

[mattjackson]

I guess you guys aren't ready for that yet... but your great-great-great-grandkids are gonna love it...

[victoriaevans]

Brilliant!
Can we just stop and admire how well a pianist Alexander Armstrong is?!! He's bloody good.

[ALAH]

"All that was left was his top hat and silk scarf the rest was just dust."

That line makes me piss myself laughing every time.

[mattbland]

They definitely should have done more of these. I'd like to see them eventually getting into it. Having Armstrong and Miller back for a new series would be great.

The way the party is just talking casually about horrible unusual deaths is a skit in itself.

[jamestinsley]

The juxtaposition of the guests talking about horrible things that have happened to people nonchalantly getting horrified by the music and lyrics is hilarious!

[zhongwenren]

Just for reference here are the songs and the parts featured in the skit. 1st song Mouse T - Horny (around 50 seconds in), 2nd song is Ride on Time - Black Box (around 1minute 50 seconds in), 3rd song is Gay Bar - Electric Six (the whole song)

I always loved the Armstrong & Miller skits in which they juxtaposed the 21st century with some other era. Like this Victorian pianist playing modern songs that completely go against Victorian era sensibilities, cavemen doing job interviews, posh RAF pilots talking like modern teenage girls, etc

There aren't many comedy sketches that reduce me to hysterical laughter but this is 1. Even though you know where its going it somehow becomes even more funny

[rockawaydatasystems]

Even after hundreds of views, this is still my go-to video for whenever anything makes me angry or sad - and it still never fails 😆

[smok]

His reactions to the audience are spot on. I could watch this over and over. Such perfect timing.

[jonnydarkfang]

Started watching this everytime it appears in my feed. Which of course makes it appear more often. Still love it though, I'm gonna have to rewatch the whole show again!

[LOVEDAVEGAHAN]

I wish Armstrong & Miller would do more way overdue!

[jamesfish]

We need more of this, it quite often has me in tears

[jeffreystewart]

This is how my musical mind works. All it takes its a single note. 🤣

[galexeqe]

I envy anyone who can casually play a musical instrument like that

[historygrad]

I keep watching this and laugh just as hard as the first time I saw it. 😂 It always cheers me up.

[rio_reds]

0:06 is the woman in the centre Martha Howe-Douglas?? I swear Jim Howick appears straight after as well.
Edit: Just watched the rest and yes, yes it is. Absolutely wild to see some of the Horrible Histories cast 1. In other sketches and 2. Separated from the rest of them.

Seen this hundreds of times still makes me laugh
