The iconic Morecambe and Wise gold drapes with a contrasting MW on them were made by Rex Howard Drapes back in the 1970’s for the original Morecambe and Wise TV show.Since then they have appeared in every Morecambe and Wise show, returning to Rex Howard for maintenance and storage in between shows.
Hawthorn’s Rex Howard are delighted that these unique tabs are going to be used again in a Morecambe and Wise Christmas Memories TV tribute special, to be shown this Christmas, and the gold drapes have been fully cleaned and serviced ready for the show by Hawthorn’s in-house specialist maintenance team.
Mike Watling, General Manager of Rex Howard drapes said “These gold tabs are part of TV history. Its been a real pleasure for the whole team to be involved in getting this special piece of TV memorabilia ship shape for the Christmas TV special”.
