Peter Sellers imitating Lawrence Olivier's characterisation of William Shakespeare's King Richard III, reciting The Beatles' "A Hard Day's Night" with a salacious twinkle in his eye.
Everything has been downhill since this ?

bibliothecarivs It's been a few years since I've seen this genius skit. Thanks for sharing. Olivier's Richard III is still one of my favourite films of all time. While reading about Richard in the tagged book, I was thinking that I need to re-watch it.![[tagged book]](https://image.librarything.com/pics/litsy_webpics/icon_taggedBook@3x.png)

Tyrant: Shakespeare on PoliticsTieDyeDude I didn't know Sellers put out albums! Dr. Strangelove is a top 3 all-time favorite. This was a fun track. Thanks for sharing! 7d
Bookwomble @bibliothecarivs I can't listen to The Beatles original song without thinking of Peter Sellers, which I count as a good thing 😊 The Beatles loved The Goon Show in which Sellers co-starred. 5d
Bookwomble @TieDyeDude He was a wonderful actor and comedian. I actually haven't heard him sing, at least not that I can recall, so I've no idea what his albums would be like. 5d
