Then and now cast of the tv programme Hi-di-Hi Between 1980 to 1988. At the time it was one the country's most popular tv programmes attracting large viewing figures.

I absolutely loved watching this at Saturday teatime. Every episode was as funny as the last one, and every actor was brilliant in it. It was a sad time when it ended, as it also reflected the decline in UK holiday camps, which gladly have had a resurgence since. Sadly, nothing like this will ever get written again. The PC brigade and recent events have put the final nail in British comedy's coffin.

Great job on this. Hi-de-hi was a very endearing program. Talfryn Thomas, who appeared as Gladys' brother, Gareth, was, in real life, a bone fide war hero. He was a rear gunner in a Lancaster bomber and flew many missions in WW2. The final mission, the plane was hit and crashed. All crew were killed but him. He survived. As a recovery he enrolled in theatre school and got into comedy. Playing Private Cheeseman in Dads Army + other roles.

Went to the school that backed on to "Maplins". Or rather bunked off to watch them filming every year. The cast and crew were really lovely to us. Didn't seem to mind at all. They mixed in with the locals, and it was genuinely sad when it ended. As kids we couldn't really recall a time they didn't come down to make it. Like everyone else I later ended up working on the camp and it was like being in Hi-De-Hi. The writers got it SO spot on! In fact, I have the huge honour of having made Jimmy Perry and David Croft laugh. (it was more at me than with me, but I'm taking that to the grave! ) 😁

I met Felix when he was the audience warm-up / “when things go wrong” entertainment for “Noel’s Telly Years” filmed in Birmingham Pebble Mill years back in the mid 90’s. He played his guitar and didn’t want to stop his routines / banter even when the cameras were ready to roll (kept getting told off by the floor manager). So genuinely happy to be doing his thing. Happy memories.

Agree about Simon Cadell. For best comedy results, the other characters needed a strait-laced type like Jeffrey to bounce off. Clive was just a bit too much like yet another chancer along with all the rest. BTW, did you know Diane Holland was Jimmy Perry's sister-in-law?

Dads Army, It ain't alf ot Mum, Hi de Hi, and even the somewhat underrated You Rang M'Lord?, must all be in the Top Twenty sit coms of all time ! As for Geoffrey and Clive, they were both excellent, but Geoffrey straight laced persona was absolutely hilarious, especially when he was introducing the latest lowest ot the low competition! This type of scene could not be done with Clive!

Spawned lots of catchphrases too, not just hi de hi but Peggy’s I want to be a yellowcoat, don’t tell Miss Cathcart and Ted’s first rule of comedy! They really went for those big laughs too, esp Su Pollard. I loved the you have been watching end titles sequence too.

Great video well done.... Good to see most of the yellow coats also. I loved Mr Partridge played brilliantly by Leslie Dwyer also Christopher's grandad Fred Quilly the Demented jockey. Please no offence it's how Joe Maplin always described him. He was David Crofts go to warm up man he also did Wogans audience's. My favourite ever episode was SING YOU SINNERS What was yours ???

Liked Hi-de-hi growing up, at first when first aired I was fascinated with the end credits, not what was going on in the show itself, then as I got older - obviously discovered the opposite sex!, watching repeats I got obsessed with Nikki Kelly especially her legs! Had a huge crush on her ha

@@MarkMahoney It’s on Britbox and I’ve started watching and enjoying it. My comment was a joke and what I thought would be a very obvious one. They look almost identical to the point that before I made my comment I checked to see if they were brothers that used different professional names like George Sanders and Tom Conway. And beyond appearance even his speech pattern and his delivery of lines seems, to me at least identical except Barker in Open all Hours. I’ve enjoyed Ronnie Barker for years and this is my first exposure to Mr Shane the similarities seemed obvious but I’m not saying anything negative about Mr Shane or saying he was a hack trying to steal Ronnie Barkers persona and I meant no offense to his memory or to you.

Sadly I did come across a couple of this lot during my theatre career. Barry Howard who was a pantomime dame and was so horrible he had to be warned about interfering with technical equipment and that the drencher cable wasn't for hanging his clothes on. Quite a nasty man. Paul Shane tried to book me to do sound on his dodgy tour which was cancelled after the hilarious but rather cringe worthy Pebble Mill incident. Nice guy but, boy could he not sing to save his life lol.
