  • A brilliant ensemble cast not averse to taking the mick. All sadly missed apart from that appalling Grandad song by Dunn.

    RIP

    We might have been spared that. Apparently the show's producers wanted David Jason for the role and had promised it to him. They were forced to go back on their word though because BBC boss Billy Cotton, son of Red Red Robin maestro Billy Cotton, insisted that Dunn get the gig.

    A 28-year old Corporal Jones would have been a bit odd

    Dunn was only 48 at the time and David Jason was in his mid-thirties when he played Blanco in Porridge. Amazing what can be done with skilled make up artists on the job, Chizz. 

    RIP Mr. Lavender.
