Why can’t we have programmes like this on TV again? I guess we don’t have stars anymore apart from the reality ones. 😂

Fantastic. I think Frank Thornton is brilliant. I have so enjoyed his appearances in 'Are You Being Served?' and especially 'Last of the Summer Wine'. This show is a well deserved celebration. What a wonderful video to post. Thank you Hayden.

Must be one of the very last appearances of Derek Nimmo - a few weeks later he suffered a very serious fall, never regained consciousness - and died early in 1999

Quite stylish, the late 90s in their way. The clothes could be boxy, there was too much beige and brown and lengths were still unflatteringly long (a hangover from earlier in the decade) but other than that people often looked good in what they wore.

I remember reading the Last Of The Summer Wine biography and it was one of the most depressing reads ever! All these actors constantly bickering and bitching about each other-on and off set! It’s sad as they were all obviously masters of their craft.
