#Quote
1[on the success of Minder (1979)] It's a bit worrying really. After all, Arthur is a crook. He nearly always lets Terry down and yet he's one of the most popular characters on television.
#Fact
1The Minder (1979) theme song, "I Could Be So Good for You", was played at his funeral at Reading Crematorium on 13 August 2015, where his co-star Dennis Waterman gave a eulogy and said of the time they worked together on Minder "We laughed all day long, every day".
2Along with Michael Ripper, he is one of only two actors to appear in all four of the original "St. Trinian's" films: The Belles of St. Trinian's (1954), Blue Murder at St. Trinian's (1957), The Pure Hell of St. Trinian's (1960) and The Great St. Trinian's Train Robbery (1966).
3He appeared in nine films with Alastair Sim: Bombsight Stolen (1941), The Happiest Days of Your Life (1950), Bikini Baby (1951), A Christmas Carol (1951), Folly to Be Wise (1952), An Inspector Calls (1954), The Belles of St. Trinian's (1954), The Green Man (1956) and Blue Murder at St. Trinian's (1957).
4With the death of Renée Asherson on October 30, 2014, he was the last surviving cast member of Henry V (1944).
5He was considered for the roles of Dr. Armstrong and Sir Percy Heseltine in Lifeforce (1985).
6Joined RAF in 1943 training as a wireless operator at Cardington until it was discovered that his eyesight wasn't good enough. Transferred to Coastal Command H.Q. in Northwood for a year then posted to Germany where he ran the officers' mess bar.
7He was a front runner for the role of Angus Hudson on Upstairs, Downstairs (1971).
8He was awarded the OBE (Officer of the Order of the British Empire) in the 1992 Queen's New Year Honours List for his services to drama.
9Became a pop star in 1983 when his duet with Dennis Waterman, "What Are We Gonna Get 'Er Indoors?", reached the number 21 position on the UK chart.
10Was taken in (along with his mother) by Alastair Sim and his wife Naomi. Alastair then took over his education and trained him as an actor.
11Accompanied a pal to an audition but finished up getting the part instead of his pal. That was for the play "Cottage to Let", which led to his appearance in the film, Bombsight Stolen (1941). [1940]
