The Wheeltappers and Shunters Social Club is a British television variety show made in the mid 1970s. It was set in a fictional working men's club in the North of England and was hosted by comedian Colin Crompton. Also regularly featured was comedian Bernard Manning who sang most weeks. Crompton was frequently the butt of Manning's jokes, unwittingly acting as Manning's stooge.The show featured acts regularly seen on the Northern club circuits and often acts which were on the last legs of their popularity, like fifties crooner Johnnie Ray. It also gave newer comedians such as Cannon & Ball, The Grumbleweeds and magician Paul Daniels their first TV exposure.Other artists to appear on the show included Roy Orbison, Lonnie Donegan, Lyn Paul, Tessie O'Shea, The Three Degrees, Stuart Damon, The Bachelors, Susan Maughan, Buddy Greco, George Roper, Jim Bowen, Nana Mouskouri, Freddie Garrity, Karl Denver, George Melly and John Chilton's Feetwarmers, Frank Carson and Terri Rogers
