- Today's famous Grave visit, I pay tribute and visit the final resting place of legendary comedian Eric Morecambe.
John Eric Bartholomew OBE (14 May 1926 - 28 May 1984), known by his stage name Eric Morecambe, was an English comedian who together with Ernie Wise formed the double act Morecambe and Wise. The partnership lasted from 1941 until Morecambe's death in 1984. Morecambe took his stage name from his home town, the seaside resort of Morecambe in Lancashire.

For those of us over 50 it's difficult to hear an emergency siren and not think, 'he'll never sell ice-creams at that speed. Eric was a one off. His comedy timing was impeccable and I love him to this day.
My partner says that everytime he hears a siren...it never gets old...glad you remember it too ....giving my age away I suppose but who cares...😊...
@@midnightblue3226 does he do the striptease at breakfast? I can't see a grapefruit without chuckling 🤣
Just seen your reply Kaye....he doesn't do the striptease thankfully but he does the paper bag thing whenever he has a packet of crisps....loved Eric and Ernie, take me back to a much happier time in my life....good to share the memories with you.....
@@midnightblue3226 thanks, you too. My dad always did the paper bag trick too 🤗 Happy days indeed!
I still say it🤣🤣❤️
Oh my goodness, this is a person so close to my heart. My darling dad not only looked like Eric, but made us laugh as children when he did all the things he did, like the paper bag trick, shaking his glasses and the “Bring Me Sunshine” dance. When Eric died, my dad was seriously ill in hospital himself and we decided not to tell him. 3 days later my dad died and we would like to think he has finally met his hero at last. God bless Eric ❤ Thank you Paul.
Awww that's uncanny.. sincere condolences to you for your dad, a while ago but I bet it feels like yesterday xx
❤ Amazing best wishes from Durham
I did realise Eric Morecambe had been gone so long. Fond memories of Morecambe and wise growing up in the 70’s.
💕
So so sorry. He's up there now with Eric. ❤
Eric & Ernie . Absolute Legends . Still laugh at the shows today ....R.I.P Eric & Ernie ...
Christmas WAS Eric and Ernie 😊
I was watching it this morning and I'm still laughing at it good British comedy and the were the best
I met him and his lovely wife in about 1975, I’d been at Luton airport watching the planes and was cycling back home to Hemel Hempstead and he was outside his house on the corner,gardening and gave me a large glass of lemonade, an absolute gentleman I’ll never forget that.
That is a great memory
I loved Morecambe and Wise. They used to cheer me up at a time when school wasn't so brilliant.
There is The Eric Morecambe Centre theatre in Harpenden donated by his wife Joan who is still alive and in her 90's. A lovely gesture by Joan and a great facility used by many. When I pick my granddaughter up from St Nicholas primary school I walk past Eric's plaque and always look at it and think of him.
Looking forward to this Paul Eric Bartholmew as he was called was born in my home town of Morecambe. And there is a lovely statue Looking towards he's beloved town.
I'm not far from you in barrow-in-furness 👋👋
@@jillwilliamson4825 love Barrow-in-Furness great place .
One day I'll get there to see it. I'm in Hertfordshire not too far from Harpenden so as soon as I've got a working car again I'm off to see the plaque and pay my respects.
It's very sad that such an iconic comedy genius is reduced to such a small hidden plaque.
Certainly remembered among the Royalty of comedy.
Eric and Ernie were the cream of all Comedians, Never forget the sketch with Andre Previn where Eric was accused of playing the wrong notes on the Piano, He grabbed Andre Previn by the lapels and said ' I am playing the right notes but not necessarily in the right order ', Comedy Gold. RIP Eric.
For me the funniest line in that sketch was delivered by Previn himself "I'll go and get my baton__ It's in Chicago!" Which apparently wasn't in the script, totally ad-libbed. 😂
Mr Andre Preview 😂😂
😂yes amazing think he said Andrew previt 😅 best wishes from Durham
I was at The Roses Theatre in Tewkesbury for Eric's last show. It was just intended to be a chat with Stan Stennett and hearing his stories. It was hysterical. They started by telling how they pranked each other with Whoopee Cushions. It just got funnier and funnier. The interval was a blessing to catch our breath. The second half started where the first left off. My ribs really hurt from laughing. At the end, Eric rushed round the stage playing the musical instruments. He went off then came back again. He went off again then a couple of minutes later a stage hand asked if there was a doctor in the house. The whole audience froze. The Mayor, sitting next to Joan was a GP so they rushed to help. We sat in silence for what seemed a long time. We all filed out in silence because somehow we knew.
This will forever be etched in my mind because we loved him so much. It is believed that when Stan eventually got back to his office and sat down, Eric had put a whoopee cushion on his chair.
In the Roses Theatre today there is a room called, the "Eric Morecambe Room". For a long time a red admiral flew around the auditorium which we all thought was Eric as it lived far longer than they normally live. Thank you for finding Eric for us. He is so loved so many years after that devastating evening.
Fabulous tribute to Eric Morcambe, Paul can't believe it was 1984 when he left this plane.🌹💜🙏
Morecambe. As far as I know, he didn't have a plane.
@@sandgrownun66 🤣😂 The Earth plane 🙏💜🌹
@@karunaraina9655 Never heard of that plane. Who makes it?
It's for me to know and you to find out have a good day😂
@@karunaraina9655 Wow! You ran away fast. You can't believe anything you say is true. If you did, you'd be able to defend your beliefs. Or maybe, logic, reason and facts don't matter to you?
My sister was a health visitor living in Harpenden and she would see him walking around the town, he always had time for a little chat.
Just a couple of days ago at work one of my colleagues made a remark that could be interpreted in a saucy way and I replied straightaway "There's no answer to that!" channeling Eric Morecambe! Proof positive that he's not forgotten!
I was brought up in harpenden and was lucky enough to meet Eric morcombe on more than one occasion... A lovely, lovely man
Morecambe
Comedy at its finest. Eric and Ernie are the best example ever, of how to do comedy they where certainly masters of their craft.
Absolutely love this duo who still make me laugh so much today when I watch their shows on video.
The cemetery is absolutely lovely, I'm a sucker for a lovely cemetery, and looking at old graves.
Paul, thank you for this respectful, compassionate and overall lovely video, you never disappoint.
Always felt sorry for Ernie after Eric died, everybody seemed to forget about him.
Ernie did have a career after Eric a bit like Ronnie Corbett after the death of Ronnie B but again like Ronnie C it wasn't the same after the death of his comedy partner.
Ernie did stage work, TV appearances and quiz and panel shows but to be honest the stuffing had been knocked out of him and most interviewers just wanted him to talk about Eric. Tommy Cannon is probably getting the same these days.
Loved Eric and Ernie 🤗 Happy memories of my whole family gathered around the box Saturday nights and crying with laughter! My all time favourite show was the one with Elton John! Thanks Paul🤗 xxx they were happy days indeed😹😹😹
Just simplicity....We are born......We die...RIP E.M...Thank you for childhood laughter with my Family..
True. We are born, we die but most of us never leave a mark on the world except with our families.
Eric left a wake that will never fade.😊
What legends. There will never be another Morecambe and Wise. Loved to watch them. Always a part of Christmas. Sadly missed. Great tribute Paul.
Morecambe and Wise were a classic back in the day. I do have the BBC series, the ATV series, the Thames series on DVD and the films that they made.
Next one Paul will be try and find Ernie's final resting place. 👍🏽
They was a great double act a national treasure who entertain us a joy to watch always may they both be blessed always and forever 😇 😢
Oh I love Eric Morecambe !!! He could make you laugh just by raising one eyebrow! Look forward to this Paul, wish I could see it in person aswell. Love Sharon xx have a great Sunday x
Paul, Thank you for such wonderful episode. Morcambe and Wise. Legends! They were one of our family’s favourite! Lovely people. Eric had a great love of Luton Town FC. He would be chuffed to see them in the Premiership! Regards, Bob
What a beautiful church ,love the stain glass thank you for showing us around.. Love the video Morecambe and wise were so funny, Eric was my favourite a comic legend
Hi Paul I loved morecambe and wise again watched them on Sunday night at the London paladeium and many other shows and all their Christmas shows. He has a statue at morecambe Bay seen it many times. He did well with having all those heart attacks. The church is lovley inside was nice of the lady to let you in to film.Thanks for sharing this well loved man . Love from Holmfirth West Yorkshire 💙 💚
Holmfirth? You lucky ........😂
You have comedy greatness on your doorstep! Bill and Peter "residing" forever in Upperthong.😊
@@fus149hammer5 yes side by side in life now in death 💙💚
@@gillnelson9037 I had the privilege of having Peter in my cab some years ago. He was very frail and more or less blind. He was being helped to find a cab by two dustmen because he couldn't see. I don't think he ever acted in LOTSW because I found him to be just like Cleggy a charming, self deprecating, lovely old and very dapper gent. That was one of the highlights of my twenty years in the London cab trade.
My favourite memory is the breakfast sketch hilarious with the grape fruit
The Legendary comedy duo Eric & Ernie, what more can you say? Rest in peace, Eric Morecambe Comedian in the stars up above we send his family all our love
He was such a legend. Always used to watch Morecombe and Wise on TV. Not matter how many times we watch the repeats it never gets old. Thank you Paul.
Morecambe
You can't beat these 2 they were brilliant I still laugh my head off I still watch them every Christmas I still watch thier old shows. I miss them so much
I remember him he was absolutely hilarious 😂actually they both were and sadly missed rest in Eric and erine
Loved these two. I remember Eric's death on the news, I was 7 years old. Still watch them today. R.I.P Eric Morecambe. Gone but never will be forgotten. ❤🌹🕊
Hi Paul. I'm 57 years old, and remember 1984 like it was yesterday ! Sad day indeed. I recall it being announced on the BBC news
The Christmas specials made Christmas day perfect
My mum absolutely loved Morecambe & Wise. She would always be crying with laughter when she watched them May they both along with my mum RIP. Xx
The best most wonderful comedy double act EVER in the UK - like the mention of Stan Stennent as I am distantly related to him. What a lovely church, so pleased you could have a look around.
Only had to look at eric and he`d make you smile or laugh
Eric morecambe such a nice tribute he was a funny guy him and ernie so good Eric was a big supporter of luton town fc and used many props of luton town fc in his comedy routine I'm a massive luton town fan so eric you will always be close to my heart you were a legend and you and ernie will never be forgotten your laughter his with god know so both RIP GOD BLESS
THE VERY BEST IN BRITISH COMEDY R.I.P .ERIC AND ERNIE.
Broken keyboard?
In the space of a year we lost Eric, Tommy Cooper, Dick Emery Leonard Rossiter and gorgeous Dians Dors. Our TV's have never really recovered.
We all knew Eric and Tommy weren't in the best of health yet the sudden and public deaths of possibly the two most beloved comedians of the age was a hammer blow to the nation.
Only ever one Eric
Only ever one Tommy.
CAN I SAY THANKYOU THANKYOU AND THANKYOU AGAIN FOR SHOWING THIS VIDEO OF MY LEGEND PAUL O GRADY....HE WILL HAVE A GOOD REST AND BRILLIANT LAUGH THERE...
HE WAS TOTALLY THE BEST IN THIS WORLD...I NEVER MET HIM BUT FELT LIKE I KNEW HIM...HE HELPED ME COME OFF DRINK LOL 😆 BECAUSE PAUL WOULD HAVE GONE MAD WHAT IT WAS DOING TO ME...I HOPE AND PRAY THAT WHEN ITS MY TURN TO LEAVE THIS EARTH I WILL HOPEFULLY BUMP INTO MY LEGEND PAUL O GRADY

Hello Paul🙋♀️ The first video (remember them!!) I ever bought was called “Morecambe and Wise: Musical 🎶 Extravaganzas.” Wonderful music 🎼 hilarious sketches, sending up their special guests.🤣😂 I read a very interesting autobiography called “Morecambe and Wife” By Joan Morecambe, written after the death of Eric Morecambe. Thanks for another interesting video📹
Eric "bring me sunshine" Morecambe a comedy legend up with the best of them, with a great gift of making people laugh. Love the video and you get to see stuff to, I did wonder lol
Thank you
Takecare Paul

Such a small plaque for such a true legend but made us laugh and that's what the world needs now
A friend of mine approached Eric Morecambe for an autograph at a Luton Town matchu, he handed Eric hia football programme to sign Ny friend said "My Mum Shirley is a big fan" Eric signed the programme, my friend thanked him and he rushed off to watch the second half. After the game he opened the programme to Eric's autograph to find he had written, 'To my
Mum love Eric Morecambe'
Xmas was never the same without their shows after their passing
That was a good one Paul,Saturday evenings and Christmas with Morecombe and Wise,best ever,Rest in Peace,Eric and Ernie

They are up somewhere in a heavenly Royal Variety Performance in front of Liz and Phil.
What a line-up!
Eric and Ernie, Tommy Cooper, Tony Hancock, Roy Castle dancing, four candles? How about Max Miller getting his red and blue books out? Phil would love that....
All comedians we didn't just laugh at we genuinely loved. I honestly can't think of any modern comparison to rival that generation.
