Mrs Slocum and Patsy (silly question)

[Coppernob]

I know this is a right silly post but every time I see the avatars for APSnotFab (Patsy) and MaryF (Mrs Slocum) I can't help wondering how they would have got on 'in real life'!!! If I was going to the Patient Day next month I could have asked them :-).

Yes.. we just need a few more.. I have in mind Dick Emery's characters and also Mrs Doyle from Father Ted. Mary F x

Ahh, go on, go on, go on

I love the larger than life comedy figures. I also used to love Les Dawsons Cissie and Ada, and Dame Edna

[MaryF Administrator in reply to overnighthearingloss]

Yes... Edna..! MF x

[MaryF Administrator]

Well I shall want a man to take on Edna!

Ah, a cunning plan

Said in the tone of Baldrick from Blackadder.

Hey theres another possible character

[MaryF Administrator in reply to overnighthearingloss]

Yes of course. Mary F x

Or Mainwaring, even, as it is spelt. Do you remember the little, toothy Welsh press photographer who used to call him Main-ware-ing, phonetically.

Those were the days, before APS, when people could be ill with normal things like TB, the plague etc. lol.

Best wishes.

Yes and Mr Blewitt. who also played Mr Grace senior in Are you Being Served! I remember that character.. a truly cross generational series.. even my kids find Dads Army funny! It is truly hilarious Mary F x

[Manofmendip in reply to MaryF]

Gosh Mary, yes Mr. Blewitt.
