Good Episode With Ballet
Jimmy_the_Gent419 October 2022
No Q&A, Carol just announces the guests are Martha Raye and ballet stars Edward Villella and Violette Verdy.

A good Old Folks sketch, Bert and Molly await the arrival of a pretty nurse to give them a physical, Molly is happy when handsome doctor Lyle comes instead.

Villella and Verdy do some of Don Quixote.

Carol and Sis sketch has them awaiting their new housekeeper. Carol and Roger think it will be a pretty 19 year old Irish girl. It turns out to be Martha Raye who tells a lot of fibs.

Carol and Martha sing a medley of songs including I Got Plenty O Nuthin.

Zelda and George sketch has George dreaming he is a matador. Zelda invades his dream.

The Charwoman wanders into Swan Lake and does funny ballet moves with the ballerinas. Funniest scene is when she slugs Villella after he shoots the swan. She sings a poignant song alone on the stage.

She talks a bit to Villella about his workout routine. She sings her theme and the guests sign her book.
