As one half of the hilarious comedy duo Morecambe and Wise, who famously combined the era of music hall with the age of television, Eric Morecambe was a national institution. Since his death in 1984, his son Gary has found that many of those who knew him or worked with him had a story that they wanted to share. From public clowning to private moments and his quick-fire wit, these anecdotes reveal a rare glimpse of the qualities that made Eric Morecambe unique. In "Memories of Eric," Gary Morecambe and co-editor Martin Sterling have drawn together over a hundred stories from celebrities like Judi Dench, Chris Tarrant, Des O'Connor, Diana Rigg, and Alan Bennett, as well as family and friends.
