Auntie's All-Time Greats

"Aunties All-Time Greats" was a television programme broadcast in 1996 and honoured many long-time entertainers and artistes who had been associated with the BBC in its 60 year history. The show was hosted by Michael Parkinson and was made up of special guest appearances, clips from old programmes and highlighted the special input made by various stars as they were awarded with "Aunties" which were statuettes based upon the famous full-size statue that stands in the centre of Television Centre in London. This programmes was notable for being the last television appearance of Ernie Wise who, together with Eric's wife Joan, collected an award for best double act; it also featured appearances from the Two Ronnies and was an evening of nostalgia to mark the corporation's milestone anniversary
