TV bosses in talks to bring back hit kids show Chucklevision as animated series
THE Chuckle Brothers could soon have viewers in stitches again — in cartoons.
Children’s TV producers are in talks with broadcasters, including the BBC, to make 26 animated comeback episodes.
Some of the original scriptwriters for the slapstick comedy duo — with their much-loved catchphrase “To me, to you” — are involved.
Paul Chuckle, 74, whose brother Barry died at 73 in 2018, told The Sun: “I have missed Barry terribly.
"Now it will be like working with him again. I can’t wait to be able to say ‘To me, to you’ again.”
The pair were Beeb favourites for more than two decades.

Its boss Kevin Neale said: “The brand is so well known you don’t need a pilot.
"We’re in talks with the BBC.”
Paul will voice his own character and an actor will play Barry.
