Olive is still going strong playing Peggy Mitchell's sister on Eastenders. Not a lot of people know that!

Wouldn't have thought that Reg was into that sort of perversion. Still, everyone to their own.

One of those from an era of comedy innuendo that is sadly disappearing.
He had a good innings though.
RIP.

His character made me laugh, he played it well. Classic British comedy sadly replaced by the likes of "Little Britain".

RIP.
