Eric Morecambe
John Eric Bartholomew, OBE (14 May 1926 – 28 May 1984), known by his stage name Eric Morecambe, was an English comedian who together with Ernie Wise formed the award-winning double act Morecambe and Wise. The partnership lasted from 1941 until Morecambe's death in 1984. Morecambe took his stage name from his home town, the seaside resort of Morecambe.
He was the co-star of the television series ''The Morecambe & Wise Show'', which for one their Christmas episode gained UK viewing figures of over twenty-seven million people.〔("Eric Morecambe: Growing up with a comic legend" ), ''The Guardian'', 17 October 2009〕 In 2002 he was named one of the 100 Greatest Britons in a BBC poll.〔("100 great British heroes" ).

==Early life and childhood career==
Eric Morecambe was born as John Eric Bartholomew to George and Sadie Bartholomew (Sarah Elizabeth née Robinson). Sadie took work as a waitress to raise funds for his dancing lessons. During this period, Eric Bartholomew won numerous talent contests, including one in Hoylake in 1940, the prize for which was an audition in Manchester for Jack Hylton. Three months after the audition, Hylton invited Morecambe to join a revue called ''Youth Takes a Bow'' at the Nottingham Empire, where he met the then Ernest Wiseman. The two soon became very close friends, and with Sadie's encouragement started to develop a double act.
When the two were eventually allowed to perform their double act on stage (in addition to their solo spots), Hylton was impressed enough to make it a regular feature in the revue. However, the duo were separated when they came of age for their War Service during the final stages of the Second World War. Wise joined the Merchant Navy, while Morecambe was conscripted to become a Bevin Boy and began to work in a coal mine in Accrington in May 1944.
