ChuckleVision

Two dimwitted brothers now, getting into scrapes and slapstick adventures in ChuckleVision!



The basic plot to each show is the brothers undertaking a job, task or adventure. They are often employed by a character known as No Slacking, who is always played by one of their real life brothers, Jimmy or Brian Patton, who are also a comedy double act. No Slacking is meant to be a different character in every episode he appears in; however, he is always known by this name owing to the catchphrase he always says to get the bumbling brothers to work properly. No Slacking usually appears several times in each series, although in recent years this number has been reduced to once or twice a series. In each episode his life is either ruined or otherwise inconvenienced by Paul and Barry. A large amount of the comedy is based on slapstick.
On occasion, the jobs they carry out can be somewhat surreal or put them in surreal circumstances, this was very much enforced in the recent years of ChuckleVision. Once, they babysat for a boy who got out of his bed, leaving a football on his pillow, leading them to believe that his head had come off. Another episode involves Barry being able to see an invisible leprechaun which Paul cannot see.
