 | | Paul and Barry Elliot, from Rotherham, were a comedy double-act for about 25 years before this long-running show began in 1987, but they had only started to call themselves the Chuckle Brothers some eight years previously. |
 | | Their first TV hit was a toddler's show entitled Chucklehounds, in which the pair dressed up as huge fluffy dogs, but with ChuckleVision they aimed their humour at the 8-12 age group. |
 | | Typically, episodes found the brothers embarking on a quest or mounting a presentation (such as a celebration of the Australian bi-centenary-and-a-bit, or a spoof investigation into UFOs), and the first two series also featured Billy Butler's 'Armchair Theatre' in which the Liverpool radio DJ travelled to strange places and recounted weird stories from his lounge. |
