Summary: During the 1960s, comic actors Peter Cook, Dudley Moore, Alan Bennett, and Jonathan Miller created the stage show Beyond the Fringe. Decades after the end of the show's successful run, a filmed record of the production was discovered. Originally recorded for television broadcast, this particular edition of the show offers footage that was not aired during the premiere broadcast. Included are the classic skits "Man Bites God," "One Leg Too Few," and "Aftermyth of War." ~ Perry Seibert, Rovi
