Ep 149 Marking Eric's centenary

from The Morecambe Bay Podcast Hosted by Nigel Thompson

Much loved - and much missed; Eric Morecambe would have been 100 years old in 2026. Plans are afoot to mark his contribution to the world of comedy. But did you know as well as delighting millions with his performances and pursuing birdwatching as a hobby Eric was also a keen artist? It's one reason why the man behind the Morecambe Bay Art Fair is keen to mark Eric's life. Artist Anthony Padgett has been explaining more about the ideas that are gaining momentum (read more and keep in touch here). We met - where else - at the statue of Eric! The Morecambe Bay Podcast will be recording a series during Eric's centenary year. If you'd like to get involved get in touch. [email protected]
