Thing is aged humour is better than the crap we get these days. Dad's Army, Steptoe and Son, Only Fools much repeated, but only because they were great and we don't have anything better.
Likely Lads was one of those rare programmes where the sequel, Whatever Happened to the Likely Lad was better than the original. It really would have been great to see them as old men in a one off, but unfortunately they fell out big time. James Bolam thought he was above it all. Bewes was a thoroughly nice bloke, met him once on a theatre tour, would talk to anyone, even me !
