This is the first time that the home movie collection has been made available to documentary makers. The footage is combined with fresh interviews with family and friends. <em>Eric &amp; Ernie\u2019s Home Movies<\/em> is scheduled to air on BBC Two over the Christmas period. Ali Lynch serves as producer for Shiver.<\/p>\n<p>Mark Robinson, executive producer of the series and creative director at Shiver, said: \u201cEric and Ernie\u2019s home movies are a treasure trove. We\u2019ve become familiar over the decades with so many classic Morecambe &amp; Wise sketches and routines but this gives us the chance to see Eric and Ernie in the way their nearest and dearest knew them.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe footage shines a light on an era when they were in their twenties and thirties, newly wed, often on the road, and still building up to becoming the legends we all know them as today. We are incredibly lucky to be working with the Morecambe &amp; Wise estate on this program and grateful to them for allowing us access to this private collection.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Shane Allen, controller of comedy commissioning at the BBC, added:\u00a0\u201cThis wonderfully preserved home movie footage shines a new light on what a lifelong close and special friendship Eric and Ernie enjoyed. It\u2019s really moving to see them in their private lives sharing happy times with friends and family. This Christmas marks 40 years since their huge audience special of 1977 and comes just before the 50th anniversary of their first BBC series in 1968.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>BBC Two has commissioned ITV Studios-owned Shiver to produce Eric &amp; Ernie\u2019s Home Movies, which offers insight into the early days of the legendary double act both on and off screen.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":477,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"pmpro_default_level":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[69],"tags":[699,2581,1175],"class_list":["post-10697","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","","category-top-stories","tag-bbc-two","tag-eric-ernies-home-movies","tag-shiver","pmpro-has-access"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.7 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>BBC Two Orders Eric &amp; Ernie\u2019s Home Movies - TVREAL<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/bbc-two-orders-eric-ernies-home-movies\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"BBC Two Orders Eric &amp; Ernie\u2019s Home Movies - TVREAL\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"BBC Two has commissioned ITV Studios-owned Shiver to produce Eric &amp; Ernie\u2019s Home Movies, which offers insight into the early days of the legendary double act both on and off screen.\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/bbc-two-orders-eric-ernies-home-movies\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"TVREAL\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:published_time\" content=\"2017-11-23T11:00:49+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:modified_time\" content=\"2017-11-23T11:15:01+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:image\" content=\"http:\/\/worldscreen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/logo.jpg\" \/>\n<meta name=\"author\" content=\"Sara Alessi\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:card\" content=\"summary_large_image\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:label1\" content=\"Written by\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data1\" content=\"Sara Alessi\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:label2\" content=\"Est. reading time\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data2\" content=\"2 minutes\" \/>\n<script type=\"application\/ld+json\" class=\"yoast-schema-graph\">{\"@context\":\"https:\/\/schema.org\",\"@graph\":[{\"@type\":\"WebPage\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/bbc-two-orders-eric-ernies-home-movies\/\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/bbc-two-orders-eric-ernies-home-movies\/\",\"name\":\"BBC Two Orders Eric &amp; Ernie\u2019s Home Movies - TVREAL\",\"isPartOf\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/#website\"},\"datePublished\":\"2017-11-23T11:00:49+00:00\",\"dateModified\":\"2017-11-23T11:15:01+00:00\",\"author\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/#\/schema\/person\/3a30a856ec6d9cc2372bf054d26a0418\"},\"breadcrumb\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/bbc-two-orders-eric-ernies-home-movies\/#breadcrumb\"},\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\",\"potentialAction\":[{\"@type\":\"ReadAction\",\"target\":[\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/bbc-two-orders-eric-ernies-home-movies\/\"]}]},{\"@type\":\"BreadcrumbList\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/bbc-two-orders-eric-ernies-home-movies\/#breadcrumb\",\"itemListElement\":[{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":1,\"name\":\"Home\",\"item\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/\"},{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":2,\"name\":\"BBC Two Orders Eric &amp; Ernie\u2019s Home Movies\"}]},{\"@type\":\"WebSite\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/#website\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/\",\"name\":\"TVREAL\",\"description\":\"\",\"potentialAction\":[{\"@type\":\"SearchAction\",\"target\":{\"@type\":\"EntryPoint\",\"urlTemplate\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/?s={search_term_string}\"},\"query-input\":\"required name=search_term_string\"}],\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\"},{\"@type\":\"Person\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/#\/schema\/person\/3a30a856ec6d9cc2372bf054d26a0418\",\"name\":\"Sara Alessi\",\"description\":\"Sara Alessi is the associate editor of World Screen.
