No no no no no no.......parking in the upper field.

Kin brilliant, if his whole career was only that moment, then it alone would be unforgettable.

RIP Trevor

That was going through my head when I read the thread title too.

Very sad news though

I only found out recently that he was a song writer, composing Mrs Brown you've Got a Lovely Daughter for Herman's Hermits, Gossip Calypso for Bernard Cribbens and a few of Joe Brown's songs.

I remember him as a particularly villainous Quilp in a BBC version of The Old Curiousity Shop.

He was clearly a talented man who was more than a character in VoD.

I didn't know that. Ray Purchase is, IMHO, one of the best character names ever. His name always makes me smile.

Seen him pop up in all sorts of things over the years. Was a very versatile actor, but will always be remembered for Jim Trott. RIP.

Didn't realise he was Daniel's Dad.
