The Likely Lad

[Lazarus]

The Likely Lads actor Rodney Bewes dies

Used to really enjoy The Likely Lads comedy series when I too were a lad. And Harry Worth, Terry & June and their ilk.

Coincidentally, I've just been listening to Thelma (Bridget Forsyth) during "Ed Reardon's Week" on Radio 4.

Always had a soft spot for 'The Likely Lads', mainly because of my North East roots. Another part of my youth fades away....RIP Rodney..

Not really into RIPs

But have fond memories from childhood of the "" Likely lads "" from my original area NE.

Sleep well Rodney.

It was a rare case of a sequel surpassing the original when he appeared in "Whatever Happened...". A great series.

RIP Rodney.

RIP Rodney.
Shame that he never seemed to find any worthwhile role after the Lads, unlike Bolam.

Curiously The Likely Lads was never filmed in Yorkshire, but in Willesden.

Harry Worth was the longest running comedy at the time, some 100 episodes.
