The "Uptown at the Downtown" London variety show from 1982 filmed live at the Downtown Theatre and Restaurant at Surrey Docks in London. It is a bit blue... be warned!

This footage contains just Chubby´s act but the original video of this show also includes the other cast members: Ronnie Twist, Tommy Osborrne, Lee Tracey, Mrs Shufflewick, Dave Cooper, Sheila Lawrence, Bobby Davro and the Brian Williamson Trio.

Other footage from the show can be found on my "blue variety" playlist at "Vaudeville funtimes"

Sadly Chubby passed away back in 2006. He is sadly missed and fondly remembered. He had a huge talent and was not just a comedian but also an actor, fire eater, Guinness world record holder, writer and journalist.

“A brilliant clubland and stage comedian Chubby Oates was one of the most familiar faces in London’s theatreland. No showbusiness function seemed to be complete without a grand entrance from the larger than life, immaculately dressed, pipe-smoking cockney entertainer.” – Patrick Newley, RIP. The Stage, November 13th 2006.

This video has been posted in loving memory of my father Chubby Oates. Mum and I miss you so much. X Sue
