Paul Chuckle has suggested Chuckle Brothers could be making a comeback - but in a different form.
The news comes after his brother Barry died aged 73 in August 2018 after a short illness.
Devastated fans have expressed their wishes the Chuckle Brothers were still on TV to entertain children, especially during the coronavirus pandemic.
In a new interview, Paul, 73, fondly remarked on how the Chuckle Brothers have "lived on" - and shared his plans for the future.
The TV personality has embarked on a new project to bring the Chuckle Brothers back in a different form, although he knows that he: "Can't bring Barry back, I wish we could."
He told Yorkshire Live : "The Chuckle Brothers have lived on. It is quite overwhelming really because I constantly get lots of lovely messages, thousands of social media followers and I get stopped in the street all the time - social distancing considered."
He added: "Well, we can't bring Barry back - I wish we could - but we are going to be doing all our daft things in a different way. Especially during this Covid pandemic I have had loads of people saying that they wish we were still on the telly to entertain the kids. So do I and that's why we are doing something about it."
Calling all artists, the TV star has reached out for fans to send in sketches of the duo "as we were".
The pair have stood the test of time with their hilarious catchphrases "To me, to you!" and "Oh dear, oh dear!"
It's believed the Chuckle Brothers could return in animation or book form in a new upcoming project.
Paul vowed to go through the submissions personally himself to choose the best.
He added: "So we need someone or maybe two or three who can really draw The Chuckle Brothers as we were. Chucklesworld is taking care of things but first of all, if anyone wants to send us their illustrations, our good friends at Mighty Pens Ltd has agreed to accept all the examples so please send to them and I promise I will personally see every one of them."
Submissions should be sent to info@mightypens.co.uk.
