[Humour] RIP Barry Chuckle

[Cowfold Seagull]

They may not have been funny to you, but to me..........

RIP. I absolutely loved those Rotherham nutters.

I liked them too, then again l do have a mental age of 12.

I never realised they were actually real brothers. Not my cupp’a bumble but sad nonetheless.

My mother in law's claim to fame is that she knew their mother.

RIP Barry Elliott

I saw them on TV recently hosting a video out takes kind of show & thought they really weren't suitable for kids with their particular look.

Still it all makes a bit more sense finding out that they won Opportunity knocks in 1967, 51 years ago, the year I was born.

RIP

A particularly dated form of humour that seemed to transcend generations, such likeable guys. RIP Barry Chuckle. Old school clowns.

Met them when I was about 10 at the Hawth Theatre and remember being so nervous and star-struck. Did the to me, to you with a signed photo.

Actually feel a little moved today! Same age as my dad and lots of nostalgia flooding through from childhood.

I’m also hungover which must be a contributing factor but cannot deny we’ve lost a legend, a sad day.

My condolences to Gary Neville and the rest of the family.

RIP

You know you're getting old when the entertainers you enjoyed as a child start popping their clogs.

RIP Barry,

You must remember Harold Lloyd then

RIP Barry. Some nice stuff on the BBC website about them including a tweet from David Walliams with a video of a skit they did with their other two brothers on 3-2-1 back in 1980.

When the kids were little, Mrs DCH and I used to fight to see who would draw the short straw to take the kids to some of the shows. However, when it came to the Chuckle Brothers, it was always a fight to see who would go as you knew that the show would be good and, in good old pantomime tradition, there would always be a few jokes for the adults in there.

Never realised the “ no slacking” guy was their older brother.

Genuine here and that's a rare event!

100% funnier than anything the Chuckle Brothers ever did.

 

[Brovion]

Easily my favourite comedy duo of modern times. Very sad news.

Read today that ChuckleVision is the second longest-running British sitcom by episode count, accumulating a stonking 292 episodes between 1987 and 2009. Only Last Of The Summer Wine, which totalled 295 episodes, beats it. More facts at https://www.comedy.co.uk/tv/chucklevision/special/chucklevision_facts/

Also, the pirate metal band Alestorm included the Chucklevision theme tune in their song Buckfast Powersmash

One of my favourite Chucklevision gags:

'What time is it??'

'Dunno, pass me that trombone and I'll find out'

*blows trombone loudly*

Someone shouts 'WHO'S THAT PLAYING THE TROMBONE AT 2AM?!?'

If that isn't comedy then I don't know what is.

I always thought that was a Ken Dodd gag (well that's where I first heard it ).

EDIT: Hang on KD used a DRUM.
