The Play What I Wrote: Your views
Hamish McColl and Sean Foley
The Right Size pay tribute to Morecambe and Wise
Hamish McColl and Sean Foley have built up a legion of fans with performances in their own plays such as Do You Come Here Often? and Brecht's Mr Puntila and his Man Matti.

The comedy duo, otherwise known as The Right Size, are currently performing in a play they have written with Morecambe and Wise scriptwriter Eddie Braben, The Play What I Wrote.

Directed by Kenneth Branagh, the play is a tribute to Eric and Ernie and features a mystery celebrity guest every evening.

"You might think that even the most confident of comedy acts would be committing professional suicide in attempting to imitate the legendary Morecambe and Wise.

"Yet somehow, Foley and McColl manage to pull it off," wrote BBC News Online's Emma Saunders.

But what do you think?

Do they do justice to the much-loved comedy duo? Do the laughs come thick and fast? Or should they have left well alone?
