RIP

Quite a body of work.
Inevitably, Rossiter's performance meant Rising Damp overshadowed all his other stuff

I love Only When I Laugh but have always had a soft spot for Duty Free. RIP.

Rising Damp, one of the best sitcoms ever. RIP Eric

"Sad news ? Eric kindly gave us scripts of "The Squirrels" (said to based on his time at the Leccy Board) and a few of us performed them at the Electricity Social Club in Grantham - happy days. "

From the 'I worked at East Midlands Electricity' Facebook group.

RIP Eric.

Rising Damp of course and I was very fond of The Squirrels with the legendary Ken Jones.
