The Phantom Raspberry Blower of Old London Town
Sir David Jason, best known for his iconic role in Only Fools and Horses, had a surprise appearance in another legendary show. The comedic icon was revealed to have voiced The Phantom Raspberry Blower of Old London Town in The Two Ronnies series.
A Comedy Sketch by Spike Milligan
The sketch, originally written by Spike Milligan, featured a Jack the Ripper parody where a psychopathic killer roamed the streets of Victorian London blowing raspberries at his victims. Despite rumours that Milligan was the voice, David Jason disclosed in his autobiography that he provided the raspberries for the soundtrack.
An Honored Contribution to Comic History
David Jason expressed his pride in his role, stating that he considered himself a world leader in raspberry-blowing. The character became so popular that it received its own stage adaptation years later, debuting at St James Theatre in 2015.
From Del Boy to Raspberry Blower
While Sir David Jason is most recognized for his roles in Only Fools and Horses, A Touch of Frost, and Darling Buds of May, his surprising appearance in The Two Ronnies adds another dimension to his illustrious career in acting and comedy.
