Tommy Cannon and Bobby Ball are one of Britain’s funniest and most successful double acts.  In a career spanning 40 years they have achieved a string of honours that includes them among the all-time greats of show business.

On television they have starred in their own series practically every year since 1979.  They have also ‘guested’ on all the major shows including Wogan, Parkinson, Sunday Night at the Palladium and several Royal Variety Shows.  They featured in a BBC documentary Funny Business based on double acts, which also included footage of comedy legends Martin and Lewis, Laurel and Hardy, and Morecambe and Wise.

To add to their pedigree, they remain the only act to have won three separate National Club Awards and be named as the Variety Club Personalities of the Year.  Their feature film The Boys in Blue, in addition to its cinema success, has gone on to become a video best seller.  The boys have also been the subjects of This Is Your Life!

They have appeared on many major TV shows including The Des O’Connor Show, Noel Edmonds’ House Party, Talking Telephone Numbers and the Generation Game.  In the spring of 1999 the boys appeared at various theatres across the country starring in An Evening at the Music Hall whilst continuing their tour of An Audience With.

Even after 40 years of making people laugh, Tommy and Bobby are still enjoying every minute and are looking forward to entertaining for many years to come.
