A series of three film reports by Trevor Philpott
According to the notes in their programme, The Klondyke Brothers were born in the toughest, farthest-flung corner of Alaska. You have to be careful what you believe, but they are certainly the most massive and probably the most monstrous pair of entertainers on the boards. Between them they weigh 56 stones, and every ounce of it is villainous.
They live by selling hatred to the respectable, law-abiding people of the country towns of Britain: every night the crowds fill the halls in the hope of seeing these two ugly, misshapen, merciless men take a long overdue beating.
