Re: RIP Brian Wilde

The cafe owner who died in the 80s was one of the sons of Comers barber's shop at Intack traffic lights. I knew one of his brothers and sister in law who still live locally

Wikipedia-
Recurring characters in Last of the Summer Wine - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Sid
(John Comer: 1973-1983), bluff tea-shop owner, who featured prominently for the first ten years, before his death in 1984. Ivy remembers him fondly, and often mentions him in conversation. Sid was one of the few characters who actually seemed to enjoy getting involved in the misadventures of the three central characters, and often saw them as an excuse to get out of the cafe for a couple of hours. Ivy and Sid often shouted and argued with each other (and Ivy was never shy about bringing up Sid's infidelity), but, as with many of the show's couples, there was little doubt that they loved each other. For John Comer's last appearance, in 1983's feature-length Christmas special, 'Getting Sam Home', illness caused by cancer affected his speech, and so his lines were dubbed over by another actor, Tony Melody. Comer died a few months later. Sid's death was not referred to until "Uncle of the Bride" in 1986; previously, it had been explained that he was tending to a sick relative.

Thats the beauty of channels like UK Gold Walkon, you can keep reviving the good old programs like Last of the Summer Wine, and of course Only fools and Horses, beats the hell out of a lot of todays programs. Sadly more and more of these ol comedy actors are passing on to the theatre in the sky RIP Brian Wilde

I agree.. All creatures great and small was another classic my dad loved. Hetty Wainthrop is my favourite.. I was always trying to spot myself walking down the street Lol
