Book description
Double acts don't come any closer than the The Two Ronnies.
Messrs Barker and Corbett kept a nation laughing for two decades,
and yet despite the rigorous work that went into writing, rehearsing
and broadcasting almost a hundred episodes to millions of viewers each
week, the pair never shared a cross word.
For the first time, Ronnie Corbett tells the story of the their rise
from theatre, through The Frost Report and into their own legendary
show, as well as how some of their greatest sketches, including
Mastermind and Fork Handles, came into being.
This is the story of one of the great British institutions of the
last thirty years, and a hilarious and moving look inside the working
lives of two of our most-beloved comedians.
