DOLPHY Launches New Autobiographical Book on his 80th Birthday, Alma Moreno & Zsa Zsa Padilla A-No Show - Video July 24, 2008

I remember Dolphy and Panchito in the gag & sketch comedy show on TV called 'Buhay Artista'...that's the 'Bubble Gang' of yesteryears. I remember the late Panchito Alba uttering lines from an english song while Dolphy translate the line to tagalog figuratively thus the punchline. I also remember the Dolphy & Panchito tandem singing and dancing just like Fred Astaire and Gene Kelly, whew!...I just wished there were recording devices (1960s) during my grade school days...I would have uploaded it to YouTube today. Thank God there are still old black and white films of Dolphy and Panchito which can still be seen on PBO in cable TV.

Here's a video from 24 Oras featuring Dolphy launching his autobiographical book called simply 'Dolphy' on his 80th birthday. Old friends attended the book launching...Susan Roces, Eddie Gutierrez, Gloria Romero, Robert Arevalo etc. Anyone here remember the tandem Dinky Doo ? er..never mind.
