You'll Miss Me When I'm Gone — Gary Morecambe

To mark the 25th anniversary of Eric Morecambe's death, here is the first book to cover Eric's whole life and untimely death, including unseen family phootgraphs and new insights by Eric's son Gary Morecambe. Eric Morecambe and Ernie Wise are to this day still regarded as Britain's most successful and best loved comedy duo, and their television shows form the 1970s and 1980s are undoubtedly their finest work. For the first time, Eric Morecambe's whole life, from his earliest days in his hometown of Morecambe right up to his death in Gloucestershire in 1984 are appraised by his son Gary. This definitive book on Eric features interveiws with those who knew and loved him, including his wife Joan, Robbie Corbett, Hamish McColl who wrote and started in The Play What I Wrote, and a foreword by Judi dench. "You'll miss me when I'm gone" was Eric's oft repeated paintive remark when he'd been annoying the Morecambe family with his gags. The irony is that, 25 years after his death, the veiwing nation still misses Eric Morecameb.
