We Have Ways of Making You Laugh was a comedic television series produced by Humphrey Barclay and directed by Bill Turner for London Weekend Television.[1] Frank Muir hosted the show.[2] It featured Kenneth Cope,[1] Eric Idle and Katherine Whitehorn, with music and writing by Benny Green. Dick Vosburgh prepared material spoofing Jimmy Young for the show. Terry Gilliam created animations using cut-outs, a technique he later used in Monty Python's Flying Circus.[3] The series was live. Its debut broadcast was scheduled for 2 August 1968. Although the cast performed, only the first 15 seconds of the first show were transmitted, due to an industrial action[2] (other, prerecorded programming was unaffected by the labour dispute).[4] There are no known recordings of its 12 episodes.[5]
