Eric Morecambe

As one half of Morecambe Wise, Eric Morecambe occupied a special place in the nation's affections. Twenty-eight years after his death, the country still mourns and misses 'the one with the glasses'. Now, a wealth of newly discovered photos from dusty archives across the UK show this much-cherished comedy maestro at home and at work, in intimate family portraits and with comedy heroes from Tommy Cooper to Ronnie Barker. Adorned with all the insider information from Eric's son Gary, these snapshots are accompanied by previously unpublished material from Morecambe's own notebooks, plus some heartfelt memories of Eric from friends, family and colleagues. This unique treasury offers fans a rare insight into the inner workings of a British comedy legend.
