I'll be honest, I was surprised he was still going.  Died in hospital after a fall, aged 89.

Fond (if vague) memories of Oh No, It’s Selwyn Froggitt and The Gaffer from when I was a kid.

He never did anything after Selwyn in my view, I bet it would be shit now but I remember watching that with my Dad and us both in stitches.

Ah, The Gaffer. The theme tune keeps popping into my head for some reason every few years.

He's the Gaffer... etc

RIP

Don't open that coffin Selwyn!  Everything will fall out!

Magic, our Maurice!

I enjoyed his loveable rogue, Greengrass, character in Heartbeat.
