Sunshine and Laughter: The Story of Morecambe & Wise by Louis Barfe
Requirements: .ePUB reader, 5 MB
Overview: The Morecambe and Wise Show was the crème de la crème of TV light entertainment from the late 1960s until the early 1980s. The hardy perennial comedy duo at its heart had even greater longevity, spanning five decades from their wartime debut at the Liverpool Empire to Morecambe’s tragically early demise in 1984.
This is no simple, linear story of rags to fame and riches; Eric Morecambe and Ernie Wise learnt showbiz the hard way. They began their careers as child stars, became famous in Variety, and then faded just as quickly into obscurity. But they would re-emerge bigger, better and brighter – and with a sackful of experience grittily won – to reach a level of celebrity and popularity that is unlikely ever to be equalled. By the time of their last BBC Christmas Show in 1977, they were twenty-four carat comedy gold – a national institution whose shows drew audiences in excess of twenty million. They also loved each other like brothers, and the audience repaid that love; they were the nation’s best friends.
