Andy Capp by Reg Smythe for January 08, 2022

How about them red toe and heel socks.

Not just the doctor and his wife, but the neighbourhood too.

@Linguist Today’s strip IS funny, our HERO MR Andrew Capp’s visit to the Doctor turnout is priceless :o) my avatar is a spoof of a guy killing time by shooting his clock/radio like I felt doing when mine went off as soon as i managed to get asleep after a restless night (not Saturday Night Fever) come passerai il vostro Sabato , mio meno vecchio amico ? our Saturday should be a little busy bur we should cope I hope , we are both in a good mood no shopping or errands to run just stay in the house , keep hydrated because it’s windy outside , keep safe and a bientot pal

Sounds like they are not fans Andy…

Is the Doctor giving a Pub-lic service message?

Hey, Doc—how about “accidentally” cutting Capp’s vocal cords??

That’ll shut him up for good!!

And here I was thinking the doctor was worried Andy would swallow some of the canal water…

Andy sings only when he over-hydrates.

Everybody is a Critic !

Even worse, they are separated and live two blocks apart.

So you are awake in bed with the wife? I fail to see the problem?

He’s not a very good medico. I would have told Andy that he was indeed in danger of doing permanent damage to his vocal cords by all his caterwauling … and then broken the 4th wall and informed us that now maybe he and his wife could get some sleep.

I did get a nice laugh out of today’s strip, but I think Linguist improved on it!

Benny Hill: “I went to the doctor, and first he looked down my throat. Then he looked up my…..birth certificate.” (There are plenty of other examples of Benny’s audience and viewers being more naughty than HE was!)

Is Andy any kin to the fat lady (as in “it ain’t over ‘til . . .”)?

The only way to shut Andy up would be for Jack to add some alum to Andy’s last ale of the night.

In other words, shut up, Andy!
