It was only when their occasional banter in between songs started getting some laughs that they were tempted to try their luck as a double act, copying American duos like Abbott & Costello but without much success. Eric Morecambe, without missing a beat, answered: 'Mike and Bernie Winters'. This harmonious idyll, enjoyed by Adam and Jackie Faith at their farmhouse in Tudeley, near Tonbridge, Kent was the surprising final chapter of their extraordinary love affair. T hey've been described as "the other popular comedy duo" from TV's golden age, second only to Morecambe and Wise. He had a facility for jazz, which the academics considered 'just a primitive rhythm with undisciplined, discordant sounds'. If you've seen Vermont senator and 2020 presidential hopeful Bernie Sanders on the campaign trail, the first person he always introduces first is his wife, Jane O'Meara Sanders. But, after settling into the street, she's revealed herself to have a big heart who would fight tooth and and nail for her loved ones. She had faked her way into a dance audition at 14 and, although lacking any formal ballet training, she had become a sought-after fixture in a dance troupe. Birthdays, weekends and Christmases were spent as a family, and gradually Faith's appetite for the single life died. Repeatedly. There were loud and very public rows at airports (which their friends in the press covered-up), and at least one occasion - in a Birmingham night club - when the brothers stood toe-to-toe and exchanged blows in front of the management. Faith quickly ended the affair, and was left to contemplate how deeply he had wounded his wife. He met The Beatles and 'Jane Asher was carrying Paul's guitar'. She is not one to be tied down to a man, a job or any responsibilities, especially when it means hard work for her." In the musical terms of the time, Morecambe & Wise matured into an album band, while Mike and Bernie Winters remained a singles act. Coronation Street star Jane Hazelgrove burst onto the famous cobbles as gobby Bernie Winter in 2019 and went on to become a firm favourite with TV fans. Bernie's biggest success was his eponymous series where his comedy "partner" was a St Bernard dog named Schnorbitz. Featuring 'a weekly discotheque spot' and some light-hearted observations 'on the latest happenings in the pop scene', but still relying on such familiar middle-of-the-road guests as Lionel Blair, Acker Bilk, Clodagh Rodgers and Kathy Kirby, it was a horribly half-hearted affair. In May she tweeted proudly about her love ahead of The British Soap Awards: "Very proud that my sublimely talented & hilarious wife has been nominated for Best Comedy Performance at the #soapawards2022 We cant vote but if I could I would. Join Facebook to connect with Bernie Winters and others you may know. Whereas guys often flee the nest? Either way, its left the field clear for Flo & Joan, or Siblings, to become the Chuckle Brothers de nos jours. Bernie, the goofy-toothed rubber-faced one, would confuse 'vowels' with 'bowels', or he'd say: 'You've heard of Frank Sinatra, well, here's Stank Tomato!' A new comedy storyline has seen her meet her doppelganger Fern, played by Gabrielle Glaister - who previously starred as Deborah "Debs" Brownlow back in 2000.
