Maybe Ernie wasn't funny because he was the straight guy, Eric was a comody genius, as was Ronnie Barker, but to me they were both great in their own right

Re: Two Ronnies -v- Morecambe and Wise

Barker and Corbett also both worked very well separately from each other as well as the double act. I liked Ronnie Corbett's sitcom "Sorry", and of course Barker had several sitcoms, all very different from each other. I liked his rather more obscure one "Clarence", where he was a short-sighted removal man, but I really love "Open All Hours". I used to know a shopkeeper just like Arkwright.

Re: Two Ronnies -v- Morecambe and Wise

As A double act I prefered morecambe and wise, but I also think Ronnie Barker was the funniest and most talented comedy writer and actor that has ever been. I own all the open all hours and porridge episodes and always watch anything with him in. I grew up on both comedic pairs and loved them both, but I also grew up on another comedy pairing aswell, Russ abbott and Bella Emberg, I was lucky enough to see them live and they were right up there in watchability and chuckles!!!!

I spent most of my childhood and teenage years watching comedy instead of kids programmes, my uncle was and still is comedy obsessed, and seeing as I spent a tremendous amount of time with him, I think it rubbed of on me!!!!
