Ford and Sheen were a British double act of drag artists, popular in variety shows and pantomimes between the 1930s and 1970s.
Ford was born in London, and began performing in the 1920s as tramp comedian Wee Georgie Spinks.
Sheen was born in Tibshelf, Derbyshire, and began his career as a member of Joe Boganny's slapstick comedy troupe, first appearing on stage in 1933 and then in London in 1935.
They met when Sheen joined the cast of the all-male revue Splinters, and in 1936 the pair decided to team up as female impersonators in variety shows.
They toured widely during the Second World War, and the years following, with shows such as "Showboat Express", "Forces in Skirts", and "Misleading Ladies", in which Danny La Rue had his first speaking part.
