''Smith and Goody'' was a children's sketch show on ITV shown for one series in 1980. It was made for the ITV network by Thames Television. It starred, and was written by Mel Smith (at the time, part of the ''Not The Nine O'Clock News'' show on BBC2) and Bob Goody, with music provided by Peter Brewis. As well as being a comedy, the series had tried to advocate literature. It was set in a flat in which books, newspapers and magazines were in abundance and the sketches were designed to encourage young people to enjoy reading. Smith and Goody, one short and the other very tall, made for the stereotypical double-act partnership, and had worked together since meeting at drama school, putting together a joint production at the 1977 Edinburgh Festival Fringe. There was a Christmas Special, ''Smith And Goody On Ice'', which largely abandoned the educational book-led format in favour of a bunch of sketches and running about. ==Theme tune== The opening credits began with cartoon renditions of the presenters engaged in a friendly exchange: ''Mel: Whatcha Bob'' ''Bob: Whatcha Mel'' ''Mel: Whatcha been up to?'' ''Bob: Can't you tell?'' ''Bob: I've been taking a look at a book'' ''Bob: I've been taking a squint at the print'' ''Bob: I've been worming my way through a paperback a day'' Bob: and I'll tell you all about it if you're in-ter-es-ted'' The chorus went something like:'' "Good books, bad books and never been had books'' "good books, bad books and sad books'' There's a book about a plane that disappeared without a trace,'' book about a man who came from outer space'' ''Mel: Tell you what, Bob. What's next?'' 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Smith and Goody」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
