I also found the real mayor of brum was in it in 1971. Victor Ernest Turton. I don't know if he's listed in the TV Times or whether he even spoke, but he was poured a drink by Meg at the bar and he was wearing his chains. How very odd.

I vaguely remember this Lord Lanchester bloke. I seem to remember him as being a bit like the Major in Fawlty Towers. He was a fun character!

[Mike of CAS]

Is he not ref'd in an episode on the DVDs? The name sounded familiar, unless I'm Just muddling him with Tommy Lancaster.

I've seen his name in a kal Guide cast list for Setember 1975.

[Maria No. 1.]

He's in my Kal guide too.  Episode 2388, dated 9/9/75.

Heathbury's news article says Harold Berens was playing the part of Lord Lanchester for 6 weeks.  Anybody's guess whether that was his significant first or last episode, or whether just half way through ?

Lord Lanchester, isn't he the bloke who was Carney's commanding officer in the army?  I seem to remember Carney coming into the motel reception and saluting him or am I totally losing my marbles???

[Daniel Freeman]

I remember something like that Jean. So we can't BOTH be  losing our marbles!
