    Morecambe & Wise: In Their Own Words

    There have been a lot of documentaries made about Eric and Ernie, our beloved Morecambe and Wise. Many of them featuring the views of talking heads that probably actually have no real clue what they're on about.

    This one however is something different. Other than a very brief appearance from Jonathan Ross to bookend the piece, this is very much the story of the duo told by the men themselves.

    That elevates things hugely. This is well-made and well told, and refreshingly doesn't hide away from perhaps the duos lesser moments.

    I think this has to be up there with the best documentaries made about the pair.
