Little and Large’s final show to be aired this month

Little and Large’s final stage performance will be aired later this month.

Bristol Slapstick Festival organisers will put the comedy duo’s last ever show – which came in January 2019, 15 months before Syd Little died from coronavirus in April aged 78 – up online for fans to enjoy.

As reported by the Daily Mirror newspaper, the 90-minute performance saw the beloved pair take a look back at their careers.

At the start of the show at the Old Vic theatre, Syd quipped: "Hands up all those who thought we were dead?"

He and Eddie Large – who had a heart transplant back in 2003 – both raised their hands.

The comedy double act used the event to reflect on their time together, including when they met at a Manchester ballroom in 1963 before Eddie then went to see Syd perform at the Stonemasons Arms.

Eddie got on stage to sing ‘Living Doll’ at the time, and he told the audience last year: "All our mates were saying, ‘More, more’, but I only knew one song.

"Syd launches into ‘Rubber Ball’, and part of it goes ‘bouncy, bouncy’ so, for something to do, I started bouncing around the stage like a ball. We went down a storm."

Syd added: "That was it. That was when comedy came into it. All of a sudden we got the idea."

They hadn’t performed regularly since Eddie’s heart problems in 2002, besides brief appearances on the likes of ‘Pointless Celebrities’ and ‘Ant & Dec’s Saturday Night Takeaway’.

At the end of last year’s live comeback, Eddie waved goodbye and said: "One final thing – I’ve lived an extra 15 years thanks to this heart and everything.

"I just want to say that I hope everyone here lives long enough to see the end of Brexit."
