I thought perhaps you were going to mention Only Fools and Horses pair David Jason and Nicholas Lyndhurst. As I have heard that David Jason has said in an interview that Lyndhurst hasn't really spoken to him for years and he doesn't really know what he's supposed to have done wrong. But I have heard from other people who are familiar with BBC comedy that it's just Lyndhurst and the fact that he's a very unpleasant individual, not particularly nice at all from what I have been led to understand.

You didnt mention James Bolam and Rodney Bewes who didnt speak to each other after the Likely Lads film in 1976!

[@mikebarratt8146]

I remember they seemed to have a pretty silly rivalry which meant it was necessary for their names to be switched around in the credits week to week so that they both had an equal number of times of their own name being first. And for the film they had an agreement that (like S.McQueen and P.Newman in The Towering Inferno) the actor whose name appeared to the right of the other actor's name would be slightly higher up so that neither actor felt he was secondary to the other. All a bit silly really.

[@mossygreen2790]

I remember that! But, I recall Rodney Bewes, had a bit of an ego, as the popularity of the "The Likely Lads", went to his head, as he assumed he was a "star"! James Bolam, always considered himself a "proper" actor, not an airhead star? Bolam, went on to act in many other productions, on TV, stage, radio & film, etc, so he didn't get type cast either. Rodney Bewes had trouble getting regular work, he didn't seem to stretch himself & go for different type of roles. He later hit harder times & desperately tried to get Bolam to give permission for the BBC to show repeats, hence them, both getting repeat fees, which Bewes needed & Bolam didn't! There was a lot of rumours that Bewes, even "exploited" some of his "well healed" fans, which ended with these folks losing quite a bit of money to Bewes & his "antics, illusions of grandeur", etc?? This could be one of the reasons for Bolam's utter disdain for Bewes? Well, it's all water under the bridge now. I enjoy repeats of the Likely Lads & also "When the Boat Comes In". Wasn't such a fan of "Only When I Laugh". What weird idea for a comedy, = healthy people, forever in a hospital. Crazy! But, it was simple times & simple ideas back in those days ? 😊

[@KuroMicra]

I heard that the reason for their fall out was when Bewes revealed something to the media about Bolam’s wife’s pregnancy and this continued right to until Bewes’ death. Quite sad as I loved The Likely Lads and knowing this backstory somehow took the shine off it. I think it’s in the actors nature to loathe their creation, essentially biting the hand that feeds.

Wilfred Brambell and Harry H. Corbett did not "hate" each other. It is just that apart from work they had little in common, so didn't meet much. Neither ever said anything against the other. As for Corden and Horne, I suspect the fact that their TV sketch show bombed so spectacularly had something to do with the coolness between them. As for Pete and Dud, Dudley Moore was also a jazz pianist and he went to live in America and Peter Cook spent most of his time watching TV in Hampstead, rarely venturing out. there is no evidence there was any animosity between them.

[@philwill0123]

Absolutely. Their work together has diminishing returns. People were fed up of seeing them on TV, and likely both blamed each other. Also, Matt Horne says he went into a dark place after that.

I hadn’t heard of Newman and Baddiel before this I always thought Baddiel’s double act was with Frank Skinner

[@lorddarlo6194]

I think because Skinner and Baddiel did Fantasy Football in the 90's, Skinner being a Comeidan and massively into football being a West Bromwich Albion fan his local team and he did used to go to every game. When Albion got promoted to the Prem in 2002 the Albion Fans sung to the Tune of three Lions Albion's Going Up There Going Up There Going Up but before that it cut to Skinner alongside Adrian Chiles celebrating then it showed him joining in with the chant to the song he had written. I think Fantasy football and the two Three Lions Songs they have made is why everyone thinks there a Double act. Bit like Richard Osman and Alexander Armstrong because of Pointless. I found out when I asked my Dad from an old clip of HIGNFY which he was presenting that he was a Comedian and part of a Double Act.

[@Damon759]

Newman & Baddiel were one half of a major successful alternative comedy act with Outnumbered actor Hugh Dennis & Steve Punt called collectively The Mary Whitehouse Experience. This was shown on BBC in the late 80s/early 90s. There should be some archive footage on KZbin. Go check it out!

The Lightning Seeds were a crap band who made lite synthpop dirges, they couldn't help all their songs sounding depressing and pointless, they all just did. So getting with them for a second National Anthem was a big mistake, that made them all millions of pounds. But gods, everything about that song gets right up my nose. It's just so... cynical! Artificially constructed for success, and it worked. Just the right mass appeal for the moment, another World Cup that England wouldn't win. Manipulative, plodding, dirgelike, designed to be a sing-along.

[@1630revelloify]

The Peter Cook/Dudley Moore split was pretty evident from the Derek and Clive period - Cook was a comic genius, but often bullied Moore on stage. Also Eric Idle and John Cleese might be worth a mention.

[@NewFalconerRecords]

Cook was jealous of Moore's ability to adapt to different acting roles, and his musical ability, and the fact that he became an unlikely sex symbol. Peter Cook was comedic genius though, but he could never convert it into mainstream stardom the way that Dudley did. Eric Idle and John Cleese were never a double act, so they don't count. But there were plenty of tensions within various Pythons.

[@greenaum]

I can see why you wouldn't like Eric Idle. He's the lowest common denominator out of the group, singing winking songs in his pretend cockney accent. Where Cleese is much more patrician and intellectual in his comedy, I think he values putting thought into things, jokes that are good quality and clever, though most important that they're funny. He just seems to earn his laughs in a very different way, where Eric goes for the cheap ones. That's just my opinion from watching so much of their stuff, and seeing them in interviews.

[@teecee1567]

I quite fancy Ruth, tbh.

[@mossygreen2790]

Gosh I remember when they first began presenting together, Ruth made it so bloody obviously that she liked & fancied Eamonn, but he always seemed non-plus, by her, couldn't care less? Eventually she won him over, or wore him down? Then he told her up front, that he did not want anymore children, he had his own & they were enough for him, etc. So Ruth seemed to except that, but after a few years, she couldn't reconcile that, so they agreed to have the one (jack) But, didn't Eamonn continue with his "without fail" trips back to Belfast to spend every weekend with his kids? I wonder if that also made their family "mix" a bit tricky? He also seemed to give off the vibe, that he found Ruth annoying & showing it publicly. I am amazed that they lasted as long as they did, all thanks to Ruth, maybe? I wondered if he would be faithful to her, as he thinks he is quite a catch lol Gosh he is annoying at times ! Perhaps Ruth should team up with Judy Finnegan & Eamonn should team up with Richard Madeley ?? 🤔😁👍

@TubbsFarquhar yes, you sum it well. I loved them both, had Pete & Dud albums, back in the day, now have them in DVD style. I couldn't believe my ears when a school friends brother played "Derek & Clive" for us. But after a 2nd play, we couldn't stop sniggering & laughing aloud. Such naughty boys,... esp Derek & Clive, lol 😁👍

They were friends, apparently Peter got jealous of Dud's American success which soured their relationship

[@johnsurrey7426]

⁠@@geraldinebyrne8872We must be of different generations - or different senses of humour (it happens!). I thought they were rubbish - two drunks who think they’re funny and shocking (like most drunks…). Pete and Dud were excellent, but D&C were a waste of electricity. Pete’s comedy was often edgy, and it tipped over into plain rudeness, and he sadly ended up as an overweight, drunken outcast. Dud took another way out by giving up comedy and making films for money, which magically made him attractive to women (or so he thought…). Never believe your own publicity!

Everyone knows Sean Lock was in fact the first comedian to sell out Wembley.

[@FontaineDerby]

It is not true. No, he wasn't. In 1993, Newman and Baddiel became the first comedians to play and sell out the 12,000-seat Wembley Arena in London. A popular belief is that Lock was the first stand-up comedian to perform at Wembley Arena, as he was the support act for Newman and Baddiel. But, while Lock was the support act, he only featured in skits in the middle of the show. Lock's early television work included a supporting role alongside Rob Newman and David Baddiel in the 1993 series "Newman and Baddiel in Pieces", including touring with them as their support act.

I get the feeling that James Corden is a lot like his character Smithy by throwing sulks about what gets ordered at a takeaway and getting his mates to side with him no matter how petty and unreasonable he is. Smithy getting all huffy about Gavin not contacting him when he was on honeymoon was probably very reasonable in Corden's mind.

The weird one is Ricky Gerais and Stephen Merchant. It's obvious something happened, but nothing has came out about that at all. Although they did have a "healthy" relationship when they were a partnership, in that they weren't friends in a traditional sense, and outside of work rarely interacted. So that probably helps with it not being a toxic breakup.

Tbf I don't about McGuinness back in the day I liked him on Top Gear but before that I found him unfunny and a bit to much.

As is my understanding however I may be wrong i understand that James Bolam and Rodney Bewes who starred in the likely lads and also What happened to the Likely Lads had a falling out and did not speak to each other for many years if at all 😮

[@TheLonerSupreme]

Wrong they just did not socialise after work different personalities. You also have to remember Morecambe and Wise only socialised when they were working together that is why they remained friends, same with the two Ronnies.

[@nickcopland5186]

I think it happened after the last series of Whatever Happened To The Likely Lads. The story I've read was that at the time James Bolam's wife was expecting and Rodney Bewes in an newspaper interview had made a joke about James crashing his car upon hearing the news of him becoming a father which apparently didn't amuse James Bolam. So they didn't speak to each other away from the camera whilst filming the Likely Lads film and for years after that. When Rodney Bewes passed away, James Bolam said there was no falling out. So did they fall out? Did the press stir something up at the time and people believed it for all this years? I'm recalling all this from reading from the Daily Mirror so this could be right or wrong, I'll have a further look into it.

[@Towertrips]

@@nickcopland5186 James Bolam took massive offence at Bewes announcing the pregnancy without permission and ghosted Bewes ever since. Even denying permission for Likely Lad repeats to be shown when Bewes was desperate for money. There are many stories of Bolam being a throughly unpleasant man

[@Crh198]

​@Towertrips Did Bolam even have the power to stop repeats ? And even if so, the fact the show has been repeated numerous times kind of shows that it is not strictly true.

[@mossygreen2790]

@@nickcopland5186 probably a bit of both. Also, just because you work with someone doesn't mean that you are destined to be best friends? It's same the same for us in ordinary jobs, we have quasi-friends, as it makes for a easier working environment, but you wouldn't really want to mix with some of these people outside of work? Good actors should be able to set aside their personal feelings & bring about a genuine performance, that's their job which they get paid well for & rewarded by the public. I admit, I definitely prefer James Bolam, he has done some great roles. Loved "When the Boat Comes In" too.

Greg Hemphill and Ford Kiernan, the creators and writers of Still Game fell out for 6 years after an argument. Now of course they didn’t actually hate each other while filming etc. they were really good friends, but it was a massive rumour that they always hated each other.😀 Edit: Also, you mention about James Corden and Matt Horne falling out, but they didn’t. They just went their separate ways, Horne wasn’t able to make that interview due to his work, as he was filming in London. So that is misinformation just.
