For some time now, legend (well, ::steve("Steve")::) has told of Mr Pastry.

Whilst none of us had actually seen Mr Pastry with our own eyes, we would hear tales of the wonderful things he could do using nothing more than a tea tray and his own vocal chords. After much searching, Steve has managed to track down the legend of Mr Pastry, or has he?

It turns out that Mr Pastry isn't actually Mr Pastry: He's Tremont Blackman. Thanks to this site we can now witness the joys that Mr Blackman is capable of. His is a particularly special talent, but I don't want to spoil anything for you. I urge you to either visit the link above (if you like filthy Real encoded video files) or go here to enjoy Mr Blackman in mp4 format.

It's got to be one of the most amusing things I've seen in a long, long time.

Share and Enjoy:

As I remember Mister Pastry was called Richard Hearn. He did a slapstick act - usually featuring a lot of flour - on TV shows like Crackerjack in the 1960s.

Thanks Mick, that means we've established who Mr. Pastry is, _and_ who performed Mule Train!

Hi,

Mick Davies is absolutely right but, just a bit more info re Mr. Pastry. At the end of his performance he used to perform a dance for eight people (called "The Lancers") on his own. This was an absolute scream. To conclude, I've laughed myself poorly at both Richard Hearn and Tremont Blackman.

Hi Dan,
If you would like to see "The Lancers" entree by Mr. Pastry. You will almost certainly enjoy Mr. Pastry and a Sousaphone. Original and very, very funny !

Is there a copy of Mr Pastry dancing the Lancers available. I danced the Lancers when I was younger.
A happy dancer, Jean

I've seen richard hearn dancing the lancers several times on early t/v. I also saw him in a film called "something in the city" where he would leave his house at 9.05am exactly on the dot every morning, he was dressed immaculately as a city worker with bowler hat, striped trousers and umbrella, he would travel by bus and train then bus again to the other side of london and enter a house re emerging ten minutes later dressed as a pavement artist which was in fact what he was, it was a great comedy.
