R.I.P. Dickie Davies. He was a exceptional gentleman and will be sadly missed.

I remember sitting crossed legged in front of the tv watching this when I was 7 !! The crew laughing was brilliant because you never usually saw or heard them. It was like magic to hear them 😆

Nothing like this on TV today. We were so lucky to have the genius of Eric Morecambe. I remember seeing this as my Grandma loved sport and was probably waiting for the wrestling.

Dickie & Eric were such great friends. Now reunited.

It's such a gift that you can spend your life making others laugh. Sorely missed!

Makes me feel both nostalgic and sad because i will never experience Saturday afternoons like this again.

My Dad did the paper bag trick - I just couldn't work-out how he did it, drove me mad! One day I suddenly clicked how it was done. Talk about a revelation!

What wonderful memories of the 70s. I'd go back tomorrow

They don't make them like that anymore. RIP Dickie and Eric. Total class!
Love and peace.

[DJPeteypie]

First time seeing this clip. I'd have been a little lad of two

That trick with the bag. Simple, yet utter genius

[simonramos]

Rest In Peace, Dickie Davies. He was a great presenter and a perfect gentleman.

Eric Morecambe make me laugh on world of sport and ITV racing in the eighties

[jmccallion]

Dicky Davies was so well-spoken and in control of his game! A blast from the past Cheers!!!

[ChrisHopkinsBass]

You know it's good stuff when the crew cracks up

I can only concur with other people. Eric was a genius - a genuine star. The way the word "star" is bandied about these days for morons who have appeared on reality shows is an insult. I would gladly trade all the technology of today just to go back to those golden years of television entertainment.
