Didn't Bruce Forsyth do the '61 Spurs song - "Tip Top Tottenham Hotspur" or something similar?

I found a load of secondhand Chas and Dave records recently (god knows why in Holland), and was struck by the impressively stained, uneven, unpolished quality of their teeth. There was nobility in the ugliness. I almost bought one. Sometimes I think Marcello is capable of persuading me that Showaddywaddy or the Goom Bay Dance Band have some hidden spark of genius.

They invented Rockney, thus influencing Simon Williams, and his mad genre-labelling exercises. (Williams is a Walthamstow lad- perhaps it's a NE London thing)They were a huge influence on the LIbertines (probably not a positive)
I have seen them twice, once at White Hart Lane, where the entire Shelf booed them as they mimed 'Ain't No Pleasin' You' at half time (for an Xmas special). And on the bill at the Ian Dury tribute, where a family of fat cockneys barged me and the wife out of the way, as they ran to the front, dad yelling 'Cahmm ornnn, they're playing Margate!'

What the fuck does Tony Meo say at the end of his verse? It sounds like "I always bite me eyeballs", but that doesn't make any sense.

Chas and Dave, the popular cockneys whose knees-up music was as much part of the soundtrack to the 1980s as U2 or Madonna, announced today they are to split up.
