Eric & Ernie

Single drama telling the story of Eric Morecambe and Ernie Wises formative years, from child stars to national treasures. Big head, short legs is Eric Bartholomews first impression of Ernie Wiseman, but their friendship endures and, encouraged by his well-meaning but determined mother Sadie, Eric became the funny man to Ernies feed. After a successful stint in childrens variety, they work their way up the ladder of live performance, but after a disastrous television debut in the series Running Wild, Morecambe and Wise learn to trust their own instincts and just make people laugh.
