Herman 11,178 Posted August 6, 2015 Yep RIP George. Great series Minder and the early St.Trinians are worth a revisit.(Who was the other screen legend?) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BroadstairsR 2,273 Posted August 6, 2015 ''Arfur'' and Gene Hunt are the two best television comic character creations for me.Arfur wins it though.Does anybody remember "A Life of Bliss"(with Psyche the dog) on steam radio all those years ago? I believe it was George Cole''s first ever role on radio/tv.He didn''t do too many actually. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
