Since I never grew up watching the Goons, I know of them peripherally from my old vinyl finds of their work released back in the 70's. I found this gem oddly enough at a 99¢ store, and I actually enjoyed it. For older fans of the Goons, it is probably a letdown, but to my fresh eyes, it is rather silly and enjoyable.
To see Sirs Secombe and Sellers and the not-so-sir Milligan in top music hall form was just the sort of tonic to get me through a rather serious bout of the flu. I love the manic performance of Milligan as well as the deadpan of Sellars and of course straight man Secombe did not fail to disappoint. As a fan of old, obscure video, I think of Down Among the Z Men as the bargain video find of the first decade of the 21st Century.
