    Eric and Ernie were simply the best, no one could ever be better. Its a real pitty all we have these days is memory's of these two. Eric and Ernie will simply be missed by use all.

    I love them i've had their videos i have a dvd of them i've biographies of them i laugh every time i watch them. Even though i've seen it over and over i giggle because i know whats coming. If they weren't the greatest comedy act why do so many new duos continue to be just like them. i rest my case.

    The greatest, possibly the funniest duo since Laurel & Hardy.Eric could make you laugh just walking on stage a true genius along with his short fat hairy legged mate Ern.The breakfast sketch played out to the stripper music was hilarious. What a pity we have nothing like them now.

    Eric and Ernie were superb. Their timing and natural comic genius will be hard to beat. Ask Andre Previn etc etc

    Eric & Ernie were the best.
    Nothing comes close these days!
    They could make people laugh without resorting to crudity or swearing!
