Cracking 70s comedy that still raises laughs. I enjoyed it back then and still find it funny. Shame about the offscreen personal issue between Bolam and Bewes though. James Bolam went on to carve out quite a career in tv, but Bewes had disappeared off the screen by the early 80s.
@alexlazebat8397 күн бұрын
yes the more you read about it, it seems bewes has a complex about it. Bolam states they never worked together again and thats the reason why they never spoke

@@angiemetcalfe7210 arh ok. Well that explains some of it then. Maybe just not one of gang type, some people aren’t. I still think James Bolam was a bit of a prat though. I always remember him saying that apparently the best thing about Newcastle was the train out of there, which was a bit of a slap to the North East considering he initially made his career out of playing a the part he did ha ha. He wasn’t even from Newcastle, he was from Sunderland and I saw later interviews and his accent had changed considerably from his younger days. His wife Susan Jameson allegedly had a child she had adopted from a very early romance when she was started her career, apparently with a well known British 70s actor, now I believe the same person is in an actor’s retirement home, but when Mother and son finally met all those many years later after he tracked her down apparently she was quite cold and later had no interest in meeting him again according to the son’s version of events. I just get this vision of a pair of old snobs, him with ideas of grandeur and she quite a cold woman.
