Freddie Frinton. Now there's a blast from the past. Made a living playing pissheads. It's a pity he left us so long ago as he's be a shoo in for the lead role in 'The Paul Merson Story'.

He didn’t drink in real life, they still play his short film Dinner for One in which he plays a pissed up Butler every Christmas in Germany, it’s become a tradition yet it’s hardly seen here.

Yes I've heard that. It's even more bizarre than Norman Wisdom being Albania's favourite film star.

Never knew that, my late Mum couldn’t stand Norman Wisdom but my Dad thought he was the Duck’s Nut’s, only one Telly in those days, it was like that episode of Steptoe.

Did he once come on the pitch on a scooter or have I imagined it ?

He came on the pitch at Maine Road, can’t remember if it was on a scooter, was bizarre, still don’t know what that was about.

One of the first comedies I remember that, Thora Hird still lives on in rhyming slang.

I remember it as him coming on to the halfway line on a scooter then falling over a few times, the reopening of the Kippax maybe ?
