The Chuckle Brothers were an English children's entertainment comedy double act, Barry David Elliott (24 December 1944 – 5 August 2018) and Paul Harman Elliott (born 18 October 1947). They made the BBC show ChuckleVision. The comedy of the Chuckle Brothers was slapstick and other visual gags, and their catchphrases included "To me, to you" and "Oh dear, oh dear".
Their older brothers, Jimmy and Brian, were the comedy duo Patton Brothers.
On 5 August 2018, Barry, the older brother of Paul Chuckle, died of bone cancer, aged 73.
Their uncle Paul Elliot, brother of the late Barry Elliot, has been telling us for years posting snaps of his niece and nephew on Twitter without any of us putting two and two together!
It is with great sadness that the family announce that Barry passed away peacefully at his home surrounded by his wife Ann and all his family.
