Handrejka 1,911 Posted January 1, 2015 I don't think he's a bad pick actually, he's known to have health problems (kidneys and heart). He's the sort of pick that had he died without being selected people's reaction would be "I can't beleive he's not on the list." Also surely there's a lot of mileage to be had about how bad they were. The best I can say about Little and Large is that they're not the Krankies. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They made Cannon and Ball look like Fry and Laurie I saw Little & Large in Blackpool Summer Season many years ago(in the 70s); actually not too bad (though that may be have been down to my under-developed sense of humour at the time), certainly much better than the majority of their TV output. Having said that, I feel a certain empathy with those who were dragged along to Billy Graham's Crusades, as my attendance at this event was entirely down to matriarchal pressure. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

maryportfuncity 10,689 Posted January 2, 2015 Large strikes me as a good pick and a tribute to the skill of the DL committee. Apart from owt else he wasn't seeing much discussion herebouts before. I actually had some very marginal professional dealings with the man, or at least his "people," well over a decade ago, which revolved around his possible appearance in a radio drama (i.e. a job he could do sitting down), and whilst he would probably have been well enough for that there was no doubt his health was limiting his life even then.

Little and Large need to be locked up for life on the basis of historical child abuse in that they made such poor TV that was passed off as light entertainment comedy.

Bibliogryphon 9,652 Posted May 15, 2015 Just thought I would point out that Syd Little has been announced as one of the contestents on this summer's Celebrity Masterchef. I presume they are filming/have just filmed for later broadcast. If he does well we might get a glimpse of Eddie. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
