"It was late. I pulled the Christmas cracker and he was in it." - Eric Morecambe

Eric Morecambe & Ernie Wise are the childhood chancers who became a national institution. They are the cheeky chappies of live stage entertainment who burst into the homes of millions on a little black box called Television and became one of the best loved comedy double acts British audiences have ever known.

This hilarious video captures so much of their magic. Roar with laughter as Leonard Rossiter joins the boys, or should that be the girls, as the Andrew Sisters magically appear. Collapse in fits of giggles when Sir Harold Wilson and Glenda Jackson try to lend a more serious note to the proceedings but, as usual, it ends in hilarity. So make another cup of tea, Ern, sit back and bring a little more sunshine into your life with this festive collection from the kings of comedy.
