Death Hoax
An urban legend purporting Barry Chuckle's death from a heart attack has been in circulation since at least 2008. In 2010, the Chuckle Brothers issued a statement on their web site confirming that the story was "complete and utter rubbish". The BBC reported that the death hoaxes had upset young viewers, and had shocked Barry Elliott when they resurfaced. The hoax was said to have spread via Facebook in 2008, but resurfaced in 2010 via Twitter.

“This morning men deliver wounds and death.
They will deliver death and wounds tomorrow.
