The Lost Footage
The first series of the BBC shows has been lost forever, or at least until someone discovers it hidden away in a dusty loft. The DVD contained what remains of this series, this feature explains how and why it got there.
Press Packs
As feature films are released, the press are
given packs that introduce them to the film, story
and characters to facilitate reviews and promotion.
In this series of features we reveal some of the
weird things you can find in these packs.

Ernie's Leeds
Much of the Leeds that Ernie grew up in has been demolished or re-developed. This didn't stop us tracking his early life and producing this feature and short film.
The Other Lost Statue
In 1977 a statue of Eric and Ern was
commisioned and displayed in Battersea Park,
London. From there it was taken on a
brief tour of the UK before vanishing.
Rumours and sightings led us on a 368 mile trip...

Eric's Morecambe
There is more of Eric in Morecambe than the statue on the promanade. We caught up with Peter Wade who took us on a tour of Eric's Morecambe, and gave us a great interview. We compiled this into a 9 minute film.
