I never heard of them until a buddy sent me that clip. Here is an official website for them.

Hopefully, someone more knowledgeable than myself could add a little Bio of them.

Apparently the guys didn't give permission for their act to be put online (?) and have tried to stop it.

Nicholas, it's true that they initially tried to block the original clip, but the publicity has brought them a level of stardom that is spreading worldwide. They are in wide demand and, frankly, I'm surprised that they have yet to be spotted on U.S. telly. I fully expect these guys to be performing in Vegas by the end of the year. The power of the Internet!

As you watch the clip notice the dynamic power of timing, rehearsed teamwork and the force of music & sound effects associated with each action. This is a great study of true professional entertainers in motion.

Excellent post Skip I think we can all learn a little bit from these two. I can't start to imagine the hours of practice that went into that routine.
Very Funny Thanks for sharing with us

I have seen these guy's perform live. Couple of years ago they were all over the British tv channels. Haven't seen or heard from them since. Maybe they are on the worldwide circuit. Very professional and funny.

Interestingly enough I was working with a magician the other day who claimed that not only was he one of the original Men in Coats and had written some of their routine but that he was replacing the shorter (non-grey haired) guy in the act. The act might end up cloned into two because of this.

Well I thought it was interesting. I've worked with the grey-haired guy he was very grumpy.
I knew a man who kept saying "pliers, pincers, scissors". He was speaking in tongs.

Great aren't they. I wish I could find out about the DVD recorded in Wakefield.
