TV Eric and Ernie

[Edmond]

Did anyone watch the Morecambe & Wise programme last night, and then the doc afterwards with Victoria Wood. I though it was really good

I loved M & W, and watching some of the old stuff last night had me in stitches

iPlayer if your interested BBC iPlayer - Eric and Ernie

 

[Shagrat]

Yeah i saw it, really enjoyed it.

Didnt realise his mum was such a driving force in their early career, and was interesting to see that there initial foray into TV nearly killed them off entirely.

It was a fantastic show.

I went to see the one man tribute at the theatre a few months back - Morecambe The Play :: The Great Eric Morecambe - If it is in your area at some point it is definately worth a look, very good play.

i posted an eric and ernie tribute on the google video thread....think 'four candles' but modernised !

Four Candles is Two Ronnies surely.

Anyway, this always made me think of a subverted Four Candles:

Flushed Grollings - a sketch from 'A Bit of Fry and Laurie'

Four Candles isnt even Eric and Ernies sketch ... god almighty
