Quote: Baumski @ January 31, 2007, 2:15 PMSo we're not talking about Charley's unmentionables then.
Alert the f**king press. Might not happen again. 
Steptoe, yes superb. But did you notice, this was one of the blokes who moved the dead body in the linen basket in Fawlty Towers? God knows how many times I'd have told that story over dinner if it had been me!
Good on yer Aitch.
Hiya Duke,
In this Blakes 7 I'm having a fight with this big geezer and I think I'm about to take second prize

Aitch, 
I'm glad to see that this thread has got back to more wholesome issues and that the East End talk has died down a bit. Smudge indeed!
Hope you didn't bump into the set here Harry or you might have done 10p's worth of damage
Now if you'll forgive me I must go and flagellate myself with a cat o' nine tails.
We'll have a whip round for you. 
Aitch,
Lovely to have you here, Harry! I can't decide which role I'm most impressed by.I'm gonna have to go for the tastiness of your look in McVicar, though I have to say being part of fleeting genius like Fawlty Towers must be such a privilege.
I raise me glass to ya!
Fred,
''I don't care how late it is, I ain't going home''

Aitch,
Is this a question if so I think the answers Hi-De-Hi (Circ 1982)
I’m not sure if I’ve said hello yet, so just in case “HELLO HARRY”
The other week I got my Fawlty Towers DVD out just to see you in it but it wouldn’t play your episode but I stuck with it and had an enjoyable evening at the Torquay hotel.
Another good show to work on....

Aitch,
Ah, the great Terry Scott. 
Aaron...This is me as Mr Nice Guy..........NOT......
A guy called Rich found some smudges from this show late 80s...
THE FEAR…
I have to go for an audition at a production office in Holloway Road North London.
(It was close enough for me to walk from the shop)
They told me they were looking for a hit man for one days work the next day.
By the time I got back to the shop they had phoned to tell me I had the job and to be at a location at eight in the morning. (Dress smart crook)
I used the same suit I wore on the Norman Wisdom show back in the 70s.
(We don’t throw clothes away in the film game we hope they will come back into fashion, I’ve still got that suit somewhere and it’s now 2003.)
Anyway I get the plot off of the director and I’m ready to do it.
"ACTION" shouts the 1st A.D. and I knock on the house door. A small boy opens the door and I brush him aside and storm through the house..
We didn’t rehearse with the boy as we didn’t want to upset him. (One take)
As I go through the house looking for the victim the small boy is taken out of the house and sits on the crew bus with his real mother. (He thought I was the rent man)
I see the intended victim through the kitchen window sitting in the garden and I pull my gun (which I put in a big brown paper bag) from under my jacket and race to the garden.. "CUT"
Now the victim is moved from the spot where I saw him to the safety of the house.
A piece of card is set where he was and I’m going to shoot at that.
(You never fire a gun, even a blank gun directly at a person)
We’re ready again and it’s "ACTION" I fire twice while the gun is still in the bag and bits of paper fly off the bag. (This was my idea) I turn to go and a woman starts screaming at me (We didn’t rehearse this bit) and she scares the life out of me..
I have to give her a hefty push out of my way and I’m gone. Now here’s a funny thing. It seems I shot the wrong man again. Where’s the nearest Specsavers???

Aitch,
The great Mr Les Dawson.....
THE LES DAWSON SHOW…Director Peter Whitmore…BBCTV…
Les was one of the nicest and funniest men I have ever worked with.
We were filming down in Ross-on-Wye at one time and Les took us all for a pint after we finished that day. ‘’I’ll get the first drink in’’ he said.
The girl behind the hotel bar looked pleased when about twenty of us walked in.
‘’Get everyone a drink my dear and make sure you put it in a glass’’ (A touch of the W.C.Fields)
She rushes to pour the drinks and Les hands them to us as they come up.
(Les is still in his W.C. Fields mode) ‘’There you are my boy, a pint of the black stuff’’
After the girl has poured the last drink Les asks her, ‘’Now pray tell me sweet maiden, what is the total cost of this fine fare’’. She looks puzzled for a moment
then says, ‘’£18-40p please sir’’ Les reacts,’’ £18-40?’’
Les goes stiff. (He’s now acting) He looks straight at me and says ‘’Get me a chair’’ The girl looks worried.
Les leans on the counter and whispers to the girl, ‘’Have you got a telephone I could use’’. ‘’Yes sir but why?’’
Les: (Loud) ‘’To phone my bloody accountants’’
The whole pub erupts in laughter as Les kisses her hand and tells her to keep the change out of a £20 note. (A lot of money in 78)
Another time on location Les was playing piano in a pub one night when the landlords son brought down an Electric Guitar for me to play and we ended up in the early hours Entertaining all the crew. Even the director Peter joined in the singing.
(Peter was more like a country squire than a film director and we got to work together many more times over the years. I thank you Peter)
Thinking back to that night many years later I thought the singing sounded like the ‘’SYMBOLIC’S’’ Well I sounded like ‘’SYM’’ the others sounded like ???.
Aitch,
How about some advice - and intros. What about pushing some stuff for us - could be a small percentage for you.
