Harry H Corbett looks really good here in a sharp suit. World's apart from the cloth cap, heavy herringbone overcoat and Wellington boots he wore in the Steptoe series. As well as the genius writing and fine acting, the wardrobe department were great with their choice of clothes for the ever popular rag and bone men.

The show was one of, if not, the best comedies ever. Its an oversimplification to say simply 'sitcom' or 'comedy show'. It was social commentary, class observation, the complexities of the father and son relationship and so much more, and thats just the script, before you even get into how perfect Corbett and Bramble were.

The rare interview to one side for a moment, they were sitting with an Australian "rag and bone man", with his horse and cart. A piece of Australian history. Young, and not so young people - this is the ultimate in "reduce, reuse and recycling". The transport has changed, but we're still about.

@@mercuryrising4323 Each to his own. Leonard Rossiter was outstanding as Rigsby and Warren Mitchell as Alf Garnet, Ronnie Barker in Porridge and David Jason as Delboy. I personally would always put Steptoe in the top slot. You either laughed or cried with them. Harry is some 9,000 miles plus away from London here and yet, when the music comes in at the end, you are immediately transported back to Shepherd's Bush.

Not as great as Hancock, Till Death Us Do Part, The Office, and of course Fawlty Towers, but Steptoe was great too. Remember if Hancock hadn't dumped Simpson and Galton there would be no Steptoe.
@helencampbell20642 жыл бұрын
@@toothumbs Comedy is a personal choice. We all like different. I thought Fawlty Towers was funny but didn't run for very long whereas Steptoe had a seven year life span in all. I thought Hancock was good when he was with Sid James. They were an excellent pairing. Without James, the series seemed to go a bit pear shaped and the comedy somewhat contrived. I thought Wilfred Bramble and Harry H Corbett brought home what a craft acting is. Whilst well known actors often had cameo parts in Steptoe, Harry and Wilfred were always the real stars of each episode.

Poor Harry had such a hard time in Australia the "old man's" drinking problems and temper problems made it a nightmare, and well and truly ended any idea that they'd work together again. You can see the whole Australian tour story in the documentary, it used to be on KZfaq but I can't find it now, it's actually sad to watch.

10 years later he'd die of a heart attack... If only his life hadn't been so full of stress. I read that he died a very bitter and somewhat resentful man because he felt he could have achieved so much more with his life but he got type-cast as a Steptoe. It must have been so stressful for him to be constantly asked about the character he longed to escape...
