It's Thursday night at the Electric Ballroom, the venerable punk venue in Camden, north London, that has in its time hosted the Sex Pistols, Public Enemy and The Smiths, a cockney-themed fancy-dress stag do is in full swing. Big blokes in boots and braces dance lumbering jigs, neo-skinheads are draped with plastic Union flag bunting, and, as the headliners stroll onstage, five teenagers in matching flat caps drain their pint glasses. Along with 800 more fans 90 per cent of them men they're here to see and sing along to Chas & Dave, Britain's foremost (some might say only) proponents of 'rockney', a genre that jumbles together pub singalong, music-hall humour, boogie-woogie piano and pre-Beatles rock'*'roll.

Now in their sixties, pianist and lead singer Chas Hodges and bassist Dave Peacock haven't charted a bona fide hit since 1986 (that was the comic number 'Snooker Loopy', with backing vocals from the Matchroom Mob of Steve Davis, Dennis Taylor and Willie Thorne). Their heyday was the early 1980s, when they released jolly, shouty records like 'Rabbit', 'Gertcha' and 'Margate'. Even back then, they were a nostalgia act.

They got really famous thanks to jingles for Courage Best TV ads and theme tunes to Crackerjack, In Sickness and in Health and the kids' cartoon Bangers & Mash. Chas & Dave were never, and are not, cool.

They haven't been given the critical rehabilitation of, say, Ian Dury or Madness. Digieffects Delirium Serial Macx there. And yet, in the age of The X Factor and punk foursomes who weren't even born in 1977, Chas & Dave sell out live dates across the UK.

Pete Doherty, a long-time admirer, says he was inspired to pick up a guitar thanks to their music and Doherty supported them at a rowdy Saturday night gig in Chatham, Kent, waving a flag as he accompanied Chas on vocals for 'Ain't No Pleasing You', an insanely catchy ballad of wounded male pride, which reached No 2 in 1982. This year, they had three slots at Glastonbury, their second appearance at the event. Their Christmas Beano has become a festive tradition, not only for Libertines fans but also for self-proclaimed 'geezers' who identify with the band's working-class values and find authenticity in their trad music and un-Americanised accents.

The geezers are men like John Swan, a 23-year-old from Essex who works in finance, and is drinking in a pub near the gig. 'They're cockney legends,' he says. 'They're like Only Fools and Horses.' Or 27-year-old Reece Biggadike, a mortgage broker from London, who discovered them via Tottenham Hotspur football club. 'I reckon I've seen them at least six times.' Dave Brooklyn, a 27-year-old sales manager from Crouch End, sports an asymmetric haircut and a pretty girlfriend on his arm.

He doesn't look like the grizzled old dog you'd imagine to be down the front at a Chas & Dave gig. 'I was brought up on them,' he says. 'The lyrics are sensational. I know The Libertines are fans of their songs, but I liked them before that. I know all the words.' Is he being ironic? 'No, not at all!'

If the uninitiated still struggle to tell Chas and Dave apart both have beards and wear tinted, rimless glasses to present a cohesive band 'image', says Chas their attitudes to their current revival are markedly different. Chas, born Charles Nicholas Hodges in 1943 in Edmonton, is the driving force musically. 'I'm more of the lyricist and the musician.
