madcap antics of the original Crazy Gang

Although I did not see the Gang on stage,I did see them on stage I did see Bud and Ches separately.I found them very funny and my opinion has not changed over the years.The antics get more outrageous as the film progresses.This includes Bud being struck all Sheffield United and the romantic leads being chased up a tree in the middle of Kent.A very good number,Free,early on.The Gang are inimitable and irreplaceable.
