veritas	I'm sure he got busted in the cottage at Rushcutter's Bay Park. he and Rudolf Nureyev
andrew	Interviewers tend to get deeply confused with fan fiction. Another big example of this in Only Fools & Horses Del never married Raquel they were common in law. A lot of people get confused when Del says I got a wife and kid to Rodney I think the episode was Fatal Extraction.
Prunella Minge	andrew wrote: Actually FC Wilfred and Harry did get on very well of set Quite right. Every time Ray and Alan are interviewed about this they stress that's true, but the interviewers then repeat the myth. The two actors only really fell out after the TV series had finished, when they did their Australian tour, during which Brambell mainly got drunk, ruined some theatre appearances, swore on live radio, chased blokes and insulted various dignitaries. I'm sure veritas can list the incidents.
Carl	A true classic of British comedy. My favourite episode being when Leonard Rossiter (Rigsby from Rising Damp) turns up at Steptoes house with his accomplice after they have escaped from prison. They go in with the intention of robbing them but end up out of pocket when they have to put money into the electricity meter, brilliant!
andrew	Actually FC Wilfred and Harry did get on very well of set, they both had different views of the show. Wilfred treated it as work easy money in his pocket, Harold didn't like the show that much as it made him a typecast actor. Harry was spoken about becoming the Marlon Brando by theater critics but when he did stage work, and when he did Henry V people shouted from the rafters and called out 'Harold.' This when he knew that he never be the actor he wanted to be or be a serious actor. Sad story Get the Steptoe and Son box set I got my set about 5 years ago and love it seen all 4 times or more now, and there some episodes that will never be repeated due to domestic and racial abuse. It's more than a comedy some scenes are like watching a serious drama, others are rip roaring funny and others are sad.
