The programme consisted of sketches and stand-up comedy sessions in which Ronnie took the role of "straight man" to Ryan's clowning.
Each programme ended with an episode of a spoof soap opera entitled "Our House", in which Ryan played the mother of the family and Ronnie the father.
The running joke in "Our House" was that "Mam" doted on her son, Nigel Wyn (originally played by Derek Boote and later by resident singer Bryn Williams),[1] and forgave him anything, whilst being strict with Phyllis Doris, whom she always addressed as "you brazen hussy".
(The phrase "call on" is a direct translation from the Welsh "Paid a galw Wil ar dy dad!").
On one occasion, the show's guest star Ken Dodd also appeared as a character in "Our House".
