Sad news
Rodney Bewes, one of the stars of Whatever Happened to the Likely Lads has died
Another talent from my youth gone...
Very sad news, the likely lads was a real classic.
R.I.P Rodney
And they don't write comedy like that any more... brilliantly written...
Iv'e been watching whatever happened to the likely lads as its always on repeat on either Gold Drama or Yesterday channels.
even though written in the 70's it still stands up to today
RIP Rodney Bewes
Likely Lads very funny and well written, still watch the DVD's today. They could sit around a table and talk to each other for ages, no gimmicks or fancy sets or special effects..good lines, well acted , perfect timing and a great chemistry.
I love whatever happened to the likely lads, it was the peep show of the 1970's.
Like with Mitchell & Webb, it was the chemistry between Bewes & Bolam that made it work. It's a great shame they fell out in 1976 and never spoke again.
RIP Rodney
