Derek and Clive Get the Horn


Derek and Clive Get the Horn is a 1979 British documentary comedy film that chronicles the recording of Peter Cook and Dudley Moores 1978 comedy album Derek and Clive Ad Nauseam, their third and final outing featuring their controversial alteregos Derek and Clive, two foulmouthed lavatory attendants who banter at length about their surreal daytoday existences. The footage was shot in early September 1978. The film was the directorial debut of Russell Mulcahy, who would go on to direct Highlander.

Cook instead chose to release the film straight to video, a format that was at the time unregulated, but this plan also ran into trouble when several hundred copies were impounded by Gods copper James Anderton of the Greater Manchester Police, sending the small company behind the release spiraling into bankruptcy. Derek and Clive Get the Horn was finally granted an uncutcertificate in 1993 and was released as a sellthrough video by PolyGram.
