Watching Russell Harty as a child, you don't realise at the time how arrogant he could be. Amazing that Russell was actually older than Fred, by four years !!! - Fred here looks and sounds old enough to be his Dad ! Fred is a legend and I can remember as a kid watching his programmes that were on telly around the time of this interview. I thought his first wife Alison was very attractive and a lovely woman though I never liked that social worker who he ended up marrying a few years later who came across as rather controlling and a bit toxic. I would have loved to have met him over a couple of pints of Bitter. Fred was a true one-off - A proper old skool Lancastrian. RIP.

I was surprised to see some compilations on Amazon Prime of some of the original shows at the weekend and watched Fred again with two of my teenage sons. The fact they actually stayed and watched with me says a lot about the original shows, Fred's character and his story. We live in the north of England and my sons found what he had to say and do fascinating. One of my sons went out of his way to visit one of the tallest remaining chimneys in our local town earlier this week!

I can remember refilling my BT van at a garage at Bolton Fred’s Land Rover was at one of the pumps when I was paying I reconsidered his voice behind me the had been a storm the day before and a church steeple at new Brighton had been damaged the lady at the till asked Fred had he got the job to fix it then in his television presenters manner he explained that the was a steel rod that goes up the middle of the spire and holds everything down and had probably rust through over the years and been weakened the next time we saw Fred was when he was at the Fleetwood tram festival with his traction engine he gave my son his autograph the the gang who replaced the telephone poles use to deliver the old poles to is home so he could build things also prop up the chimneys with them and then burn them through to let them fall he was one of the last of his kind

Ahh the good old days when you could smoke on TV, how the world has changed for the worse. Fred is an amazing man I loved watching programs about him with my dad when I was a kid ❤❤❤
