Bob Hope's Happy Birthday Homecoming

Bob Hope's Happy Birthday Homecoming is a Bob Hope special which aired over NBC on May 28, 1985. It later aired on ITV as Bob Hope's Royal Birthday Party on June 6.
The special was shot in London at the Lyric Theatre, returning to the star's city of birth for his 82nd birthday, with Hope sharing the Royal Box with Prince Phillip. In a box below them, Kermit the Frog and Miss Piggy sit.
Following an introduction by Ben Kingsley, Piggy is convinced the Oscar-winner has bowed to her, and that everyone is bowing and honoring her (unaware of the royal presence above her). Once Kermit points out who she's beneath, Piggy starts trying to signal Hope ("Roberto!")
Other participants in the special included Michael Caine, Chevy Chase, Phyllis Diller, Bernadette Peters, Brooke Shields, and Crystal Gayle.
