Synopsis

A reissue of the 1977 original, a scrapbook compendium packed with laughs and jokes, games, snaps and comic strips, stories and spoofs, and even a centerfold—not necessarily in that order. Lots of sunshine, and plenty for a rainy day too. Everything, in fact, that you would expect from Britain's best loved comic duo. They've still got it, you know.

Review:

"Everything you'd expect from Britain's best loved comic duo." THE OLDIE - 1.11.09 "Know someone who can't get through Christmas without their annual dose of the eternally sunny pair? They'll be glad if Santa puts this one in their stocking. It's a fascimile of the 1977 classic about the Tall Good-Looking One with the Glasses And His Little Fat Friend." -- Book early for Christmas feature WOMAN'S WEEKLY - 10.11.09 "They heyday for Christmas funnies was probably the 1970s... top of my Christmas list in 1977 was The Morecambe and Wise Special, now republished... There are some truly terrible gags in here, but you laugh at them anyway because they are Morecambe and Wise. It's a remarkable trick, which they carried off effortlessly for 40 years." -- A Choice Of Humourous Books THE SPECTATOR 21.11.09
