According to the site this image is taken from, it’s from Not Only… But Also…, but was alas wiped by the BBC:
And, forever turning up like a magnetically erased ghost at the feast of reminiscence, there’s Poets Cornered, the end-of-show I’m Sorry, Whose Clue is it Anyway? progenitor wherein Cook, Moore and guest star try and keep an improvised poem going under pain of being dunked in a pre-Crackerjack tank of gunge. Everyone who recalls this remembers it being screamingly funny, and inevitably not a second of it exists.
Peter Cook and Spike Milligan, c. 1971.
“This is the now extinct Great (H)awk - an Aristocratic bird that died of shame through dropping its ‘H’s.”
Peter Cook’s contribution to ‘Milligan’s Ark’ (1971)
More Sherlock Holmes…
