Morecambe and Wise ..with Andre Previn..

I'm not sure how this one came about...I was searching google for someone to draw and saw a reference to Eric Morecambe....which led to Morecambe and Wise..which led to this...
it was a sketch from the 1971 Christmas show with the famous conductor Andre Previn...I remeb
mber laughing out loud  when it was first on ,and watched it again last night on you tube...still very funny...worth watching...go to you tube search Morecambe and Wise with Andre Previn..or was the Prevue or Privet......anyway enjoy...
by the way the reason for the blurred violinist in the back ,is he is really having a good laugh  at the goings on...

  2. Hi John,
    My grandad was the violinist in the centre of the picture! Is there any way of getting hold of the original / a print? I’d love to get it for my mum (his daughter)
    Thanks,
    Ed
