More words blanked out than left in in tonight's episode.
Does anyone know how tall Albert was? Google tells me Brambell was 5'2" but he seems a bit taller than that. I know Harold always took the piss out of him for his short stature. I am 5'4" but I can hardly see Albert standing shorter than I. Maybe it's just from a lifetime of people towering over me!
Consensus of opinion seems to be 1.57 metres. Whatever that is.

six foot twelve I think.
That's apparently 5'2 yes. Been watching it lately and he is a lot shorter than Harold. And Harold picked him up the other day and stuffed him head first in a dustbin or container of some sort. 😁 Albert was a hilarious character, couldn't have had better casting for both. 👏

But according to Paul McCartney he was a very clean old man.

Definitely dirty. I'm in no doubt on that.
Harold would back me up.
