''NotOnlyButAlso'' is a SketchShow written by and starring Peter Cook and Dudley Moore which ran throughout the 1960s.

It had its origins in a solo vehicle for Dudley Moore to be called 'Not Only Dudley Moore But Also his guests'. Among the guests for the pilot was Peter Cook, Dudley Moore's old colleague from BeyondTheFringe whose contribution was a duologue with two characters called Pete & Dud discussing imaginary romantic encounters with film stars. The sketch was judged so funny that a full series was proposed with Peter Cook to be in every one (In the event, three full series were made). The most fondly remembered parts of the shows were the 'Dagenham Dialogues' - [[TheDanza which featured two characters called 'Pete and Dud']] dressed in cloth caps and discussing in minute (and largely innacurate detail) such subjects as art, sex and animals. Other fondly remembered sketches include [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GV_A7YeOhfs The Leaping Nuns]], [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZDtkmOdYdKY Bo Dudley]] and the {{Gerry Anderson}} parody [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OmvrFg-EhmI Superthunderstingcar]], most of the sketches would make it onto any British Viewers' personal list of CrowningMomentofFunny.
