Eric Morecambe was an astonishing performer. His facial repertoire an encyclopaedia of expression augmented by an extraordinary sense of timing. Pair that with his perfect yet economic physicality and you have an enduring performer who even almost 40 years since his passing, still has the power to reduce a viewer to tearful and joyful hysterics. To me, he is as memorable as Chaplin, Keaton, Laurel & Hardy and the Goons. As I age, there are times when as a recent wearer of spectacles, I find myself mimicking Eric's various poses with his specs and laugh to myself- much to the bemusement of others, who think I'm a loony. I show them a quick you tube clip and they get it and to my delight, I see them repeat the pose almost by instinct. How good a legacy is that...
This is still funny even after all these years. Some old programmes are very dated and not very funny but Morecombe was a star and poor Ernie was lost without him.❤❤❤

Morecambe and Wise were always my all time favourite UK comedy duo. Thanks for sharing.
