Series 1, Episode 3 - Double Acts
Further details
Successful double acts are few and far between, successful double acts that go the nations heart are even rarer... as Bradley Walsh is only too aware. Bradley will unpack what it takes to make it as a successful comedy duo whilst celebrating his most favourite double acts of all time. Do opposites attract to make comedy as with The Two Ronnies, Reeves & Mortimer and French & Saunders? Or is it a case of them sharing a sense of the world and why it's 'funny', like Fry & Laurie or Armstrong & Miller? Are most double acts great friends or are some sworn enemies?
With hilarious banter and insider knowledge Bradley challenges today's comedy legends to unravel the secrets of the double act genre, alongside classic archive clips and first-hand anecdotes from a life in the business. So, who are Bradley's double act comedy heroes, and what is the magic ingredient that makes them timeless?
