Looking for a script for a specific comedy skit...... driving me nuts.

There must be more than one Private Detective monologue comedy skit. Any more details? British/Australias/American, plot, jokes, ANYTHING?

[KANDYMAN-IAC]

well I would love to know about as many as possible for example and research purposes.

But this one was American and would of had to have been between the 50's and 70's at a guess... purely guessing on the timeline. I was also one of those oldschool american comics.

Prolly not the one you're looking for, but...

Rinse the Blood Off My Toga

Old-style detective story set in ancient Rome. One of my favourites when I was a kid.

I don't think this is what you're looking for, since it's not really private detective, but Stan Freberg's "Dragnet"-parody "Skt. George and the Dragon-Net" is great.

For research purposes, the Bob Hope film "My Favorite Brunette" (1947) is a nice noir detective spoof (it's actually in the public domain, and you can find it at http://www.archive.org/details/my_favorite_brunette). And of course there's also Carl Reiner's "Dead Men Don't Wear Plaid" starring Steve Martin.

I wasn't a great fan of "dead men don't wear plaid"... don't know why really. I'm downloading the Bob Hope movie now. Does anyone else have anyothers that that could recommend.
