Best Answer

Morecambe and Wise first began performing in 1941, however, they did not perform as a duo at this time, but were booked to perform separately at the same theater. Due to the Second World War, the act broke up, but in 1946 by coincidence they met up again at Swansea theater and began to perform together as a double act.
