Chuckle Brothers
The four-part series will follow former movie star and Bond girl Britt Ekland; Dragons’ Den star and entrepreneur Duncan Bannatyne; fashion designer Dame Zandra Rhodes; Chuckle Brother Paul Chuckle; cricket commentator Henry Blofeld; EastEnders actor John Altman; actress Susie Blake; and singer Barbara Dickson, as they road test retirement in India.
Jimmy Patton, one of the older Chuckle Brothers, has died. He was 87.
Patton was not one of the best known Chuckle Brothers duo but was also a performer and will be known to fans of the long-running children's programme ChuckleVision as the character known as No Slacking. Jimmy was in a double act with his brother Brian, know as the Patton Brothers.
His younger brother Barry Chuckle died last August.
The Chuckle Brothers are all set to return to television nearly a decade after the end of their last series.
The knockabout duo's series Chucklevision ran on the BBC from 1987 to 2009.
The new series will be made by Five and will feature comedy veterans Paul and Barry Chuckle, now both in their seventies, doing sketches and introducing online comedy clips.
It is described as a "family friendly clip show" with videos of "fails, flops and funnies".
