'Chuckle Vision' is a perfect illustration of what results when two northern buffoons are given a sizeable proportion of the BBC budget and told that they are funny. Their 'show' first graced our screens in 1987 and from then on pretty much every episode would follow the same formula. Barry and Paul would find themselves employment and then make a complete ass-up of any job they were given. Often, an important client or guest would end up being covered in tomato ketchup / gunge / water or anything sticky and hard to clean off. Inevitably, the episode would end with the pair being chased by an angry Scottish man that had somehow been duped by the fiddling duo. Please note the famous catch-phrase, "to me, to you, to me, to you, to me, to you, to me, to you, to me, to you, to me, to you, to me, to you, to me, to you, to me, to you, to me, to you, to me, to you, to me, to you.... etc etc" |

View the image on the left. It shows the new (and more screechy) Tea Bag who was catapulted into living rooms across Britain during the early 1990's. This photograph was probably taken at the end of a series when Tea Bag would be thwarted by Sally (or whatever that smug girls name was) because she hadn't managed to collect all the shiny silver spoons in time. Tea Bag would clench her fists and vow revenge as her 80's cardboard set came crashing down around her in a cascade of synthesised sound effects and bad 80's graphics. Bring back the Tea Bag we rule!!!

The image on the left shows Kate *I'm not a psycho* Bush. Let's see... She's paranoid, she lives on an island in a mansion by herself and she hasn't spoken to anyone since Margaret Thatcher left her throne, errrrrrrrrr, I mean Downing Street. As far as I know, she isn't a witch so I think she deserves a round of applause for being interesting enough to be featured on MY website without being totally humiliated! However, I have to make a point of saying that the "shaved monkey in a tracksuit" look that she's sporting in the image on the left should have been left well alone! Go back to the Vaseline on the lens and the horrendous 1970's visual effects of Wuthering Heights, please. |

I am still in two minds as to whether the Krankies are funny or just sick, but being minor 80's celebrities that now make a living out of cabaret on P&O ferries, I feel they deserve a mention on this website. Pretty much rating a "Dave Benson Philips" on the scale of 21st century fame, this 'couple' once had their own CITV show. Who knows at what point the suited man on the left decided to cash in on his fetish of getting his little Scottish wife to dress up as a naughty school-boy, but the risk paid off! I can just picture the cheeky pair sealing the deal at the ITV studios "don't worry, we've already got the 'Jimmy' costume indoors"!...

View the photograph of Liza Minnelli. Yuck, even her name sounds like yesterdays porridge. This Broadway character was built for industrial sized showmanship. It wouldn't surprise me if she even walked down to the local shops with a top hat and cane shrieking "there's no business like show business" at the top of her voice. |

Much like Liza Minnelli, Bonnie Langford is another annoyingly loud 'show' person that just doesnt know when to put her top hat and cane down!

This image depicts the Slow Norris. Although usually a gentle creature, Norris looks uncharacteristically aggressive in this photograph. He was a large and lazy creature that lived in a cave. Even the irritating pixie girl who danced around his feet throughout each episode couldnt summon up much energy in him. |
