One half of the chuckle brothers has died. They have been a double act since 1960s. Traditional music hall slap stick from a more gentle age.

Really not my thing but it is sad because a family has lost their husband, father, brother etc..

 

[Crackle]

That's sad but can we speculate about the bearers directions whilst manouevring the coffin in a manner suitable as a tribute to their style?

 

[Illaveago]

It was sad to hear the news. I quite liked their gentle form of humour .

What a great shame

 

[postman]

I just got a picture of the Devil and God saying to me ,to you,to me.

 

[FishFright]

This has made me more sad than I expected tbh.

I know they were a bit corny,but they brought joy to many,so they were ok. Will the remaining brother carry on in the business without his brother i wonder?

I am on holiday in France at the moment and in one of those bizarre coincidences, we were sitting on the terrace of a restaurant last night when a Frenchman walked past who looked just like Barry Chuckle. We both remarked on it.
They had a recent revival on the student club scene entertaining all the young people who remembered them from children's tv.

Sad indeed - for those that don't know, me and my club mates were in the Cycle Crazy episode. We were 'duped' into it by the club secretary - he said BBC want to film some cyclists, there was no mention of Chucklevision until we got there. It wasn't particularly popular 'early on' - nearly 300 episodes later....

That's the one - filmed on Mellor Moor and Disley. We did get a pub lunch for free, so wasn't bad.

 

[Fab Foodie]

Sad news. Simple gentle innofensive humour indeed, but well crafted none the less.
