Pete and Dud

Pete and Dud were stage personae of the comedians and entertainers Peter Cook and Dudley Moore. The dialogue format originated in 1964 when Dudley Moore invited Peter Cook to appear in a television performance, whereupon Peter Cook scripted a conversation between two men from Dagenham in flat caps[?]. This proved to be very popular with television audiences and the partnership was continued during the series Not Only... But Also[?].
