 Once upon a time Barry chuckle dressed in a dog costume beat me up im Blackpool... 

The chuckle brothers started out with Chucklehounds, which I loved.

When I was a small child I went to see a panto in Blackpool which stared the Chucklehounds (this is before chucklebrothers). 
After the panto kids were allowed to go have a photo with Chucklehounds. .. I was a very small child (3-4), and thought they were real dogs. I went up on stage all excited to meet them. 
One of the Chucklehounds picked me up, his hands like iron talons, and plonked me on his knee for a photo. The dog squeezed my little Ben arms so much I had bruises for a week. I was screaming in pain, tears streaming down my Ben cheeks. I looked up at the dogs face. Inside the dogs mouth I could see Barry Chuckles sweaty moustachio face smiling manicaly looking down at me.
I thought this was a lovely gentle dog off the tele! Now it was a violent child beating dog that had a human inside it.
True story.
