Morecambe & Wise in America

Morecambe & Wise in America

Episode 2 (1x2)


: 03, 2019

Jonathan Ross presents the second episode of the series about Morecambe and Wise's attempts to become stars in America in the 1960's. After their first performances on America's top rated Sunday night broadcast The Ed Sullivan Show in 1963, Eric and Ernie are invited back to New York the following year and appear on the same night as The Beatles and are seen by over 70 million viewers. Morecambe and Wise also realise that to appeal to the huge American viewing audience they need to concentrate on their more visual comedy rather than the ‘cross talk' so loved by their British fans, so present routines that do just that.
