Nigel and Patrick

Real British Invasion act Chad and Jeremy play this fake British Invasion act in the sublimely named "Patty Pits Wits, Two Brits Hits" episode (17 Feb. 1965) of The Patty Duke Show. Cathy Lane (Patty Duke) has a radio show, and Patty Lane (also Patty Duke) gets them on the air. The duo then play a concert at their school.

Honestly, we're OK with the renaming. What Brit is named "Chad"? Now "Nigel"—that's a name that screams "stiff upper lip."

Interestingly enough, the duo played another fake band, The Redcoats, a week earlier on The Dick Van Dyke Show.
