Long-running BBC variety show presented by Britain's best-loved comedy duo, Eric Morecambe and Ernie Wise.

Overview

Tonight Eric and Ern welcome as their guests the all-girl singing group The Paper Dolls and the Trio Athene from Greece, whose TV appearances here have established them as firm favourites. They'll be performing that typical Greek song 'Lefteris'. Eric and Ern will be having quite an energetic evening, with a few rounds in the boxing ring, and a visit to a nudist colony. With Jenny Lee-Wright, Ann Hamilton and Jimmy Lee.
