Duo that brought sunshine to millions remembered at The Lowry

THEIR TV shows attracted around 20 million at the peak of their popularity, dwarfing in popularity the hits on the small screen today and their comedy appealed to those age 8 to 88.

It’s 100 years this year since the birth of Eric Morecambe and Ernie Wise and to mark the special showbiz centenary, The Lowry presents the play Eric and Ern from March 24-28.

The run also includes a performance for people with dementia.
