	Boys in Blue, The Review (1982) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
		The catchphrases, such as "You little liar!", "Yer mental!" and the most famous, "Rock on, Tommy!" were transferred intact, as was Ball's habit of wearing red braces which he would intermittently stretch out with one thumb, all presumably to remind audiences of the reason they liked to watch them on TV at the weekends.
		Cannon was the straight man, the (relatively) more intelligent of the two, who bossed the hyperactive Ball about, usually by grabbing him by the lapels and shouting at him.
		Now that Cannon and Ball and their brand of working men's club humour have disappeared from the television screens, it's possible to see this film with a vaguely nostalgic glow as the last gasp of British variety on film - the double act even sing the theme song at the end.

	BBC - Comedy Guide - Cannon And Ball
		After years on the northern cabaret circuit, comedians Tommy Cannon (the lighter-haired one, real name Thomas Derbyshire) and Bobby Ball (the darker-haired, moustachioed and smaller one, real name Robert Harper) broke into TV as part of Bruce Forsyth's Big Night, a weekly compendium of stand-alone items presented by Brucie on Saturday nights in late 1978.
		The former welders from Oldham, who had previously worked under the name the Harper Brothers, became major stars very quickly, soon winning their first own series, which, unfortunately for them, was interrupted by the ITV network strike of 1979.
		Nonetheless, with their Abbott And Costello-like antics and catchphrases such as 'Rock on, Tommy' they retained a strong presence on ITV through the 1980s, and moved into the cinema in 1983 with their oneoff movie The Boys In Blue (director Val Guest).
