PORRIDGE : Mackay checks the currry

[@simonm7133]

Just a note that Zoot Money who played Lotterby, who pours the curry powder into the cauldron, passed away couple of weeks ago. He was a musician and a bit part actor.

[@damiencrowley2506]

Oh no how sad. I was talking to him shortly before Christmas last year.

[@jimallen9442]

Sad news, thanks for the heads up.

[@barrymontgomery408]

R.i.p. zoot money. He played the part of lotterby in the film version of porridge in the late 1970s. He has gone to the rest home for actors in the sky.

[@stgildas1]

Rest in peace sir.❤

[@nicholasdickens2801]

I’m sorry to hear that. Rest in peace Zoot Money.

One of the best sitcoms ever beats today's rubbish

[@kristinajendesen7111]

Do we have sitcoms nowadays? I think they removed the 'com' part several years ago. Apart from a few odd exceptions today's so called comedians are about as funny as a house brick. Laugh, I thought I'd never start.

[@hazelanderson1479]

@@kristinajendesen7111 I think they add an H to sitcom these days.

[@Richard-fv7rq]

The days when comedy was funny, no one took offence and life was simple 🙂

Before Marxism ...

[@bigjobbies]

What utter rubbish, if you were alive in the 70s you must have had your heads in the sand. Society was even more bolshie than it is now, that's why you got good comedy. A lot of teachers were Marxists in the 70s, Thatcher got rid of them.

It’s still funny how he tries to peddle the bike away and it falls to pieces. Even better that he leaves it and walks away as if nothing happened.

Fulton mckay was in my opinion the star ,walks in the cell clicks his heels together and sez fletcher here and points downwards. BRILLIANT

[@theveryfirst]

[@bigjobbies]

British prisons are not this civilized, the idea that a prison guard could just ride his bike into one is hilarious.

[@fionaoliver7237]

This,Rising Damp,Til Death Do Us Part,It Ain't Half Hot Mum,and Barker and Corbett best comedy on TV not the 💩 that's on TV now.

[@GenialHarryGrout]

Made when comedy was funny

[@freebornjohn2687]

I love the dialogue but not the slapstick.

[@RoddCutts]
