The Plank
A pair of hapless workmen (Eric Sykes and Tommy Cooper) cause chaos with a plank of wood. Remade for television in 1979.
The Plank [1967] is a silent comedy starring Eric Sykes and Tommy Cooper. It tells the very humourous tale of two workmen who, armed with their planks of wood, cause mayhem pretty much wherever they go. The Plank was also written and directed by Eric Sykes.
