Ernie in their ATV days was a more forceful, hard nosed, and cold character. He used to bully Eric a lot, who would just stand there looking gormless. That all changed when they went to the BBC, and in 1969, Eddie Braben became their new writer, who changed their style, making Ernie warmer and pompous, with Eric funnier but protective of little Ern, less gormless, and not a fool.
nobody could ever have done those dance routines any better. they were unforgettable
Eric was the better dancer for me. Ernie is a mover, but lacks pizzazz.
That was hysterically funny. Thank you!
Fantastic dancing
That s brilliant, thanks!
