as victor lewis smith said the only double act with two straight men,saw the one without the tash on a sky poker tournament a couple of years ago

I read that review. He also mentioned that they were both in teacher training before the got into comedy. I hope their maths was better than their sense of humour (or lack there of).

Hale and Pace are the kind of comedians that you think are hilarious when you're in single digits but watching them on repeats on UK Gold you soon realise they were pretty terrible. Playground humour that always seemed to get a post-watershed airing.

I just checked and it ran from 1988 to 1998.

Iot was a wonderfully funny show.

I loved their No.1 hit "The Stonk". Great track with some top musos on it like Tommy Iommi, Brian May, Roger Taylor and Cozy Powell.

Sorry for the dreadful quality of the video, but it's still fun to watch: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BVIoCahD7yw

It says on Wiki that Norman Pace is doing a lot of theatre work, so he's still around.

They both live in the same village? That's a bit odd. Well, not really I suppose if they were good friends. I always like to think double acts can't stand each other off stage. I reckon even if I got on with a showbiz partner I wouldn't want to live anywhere near them.

you say u would not want to livr bear your showbiz partner tricky.
but it depends on how well you both get on with each other.

ant and dec they have never lived more than 2 doors away from each other in there entire acting life.

I haven't talked to them, but they're well known for being friendly in the area. Seen them in the pub before.

Yeah, I loved the show as a teenager, although looking back it's a bit hit and miss with me now.

They now live in a small village in West Kent two villages over from me. The village is famous for its castle and its stone, which is basically a large limestone rock.
