The Watcher 314 Posted December 11, 2020 6 minutes ago, RolandDeschain said: What about Ray Brooks who played the bartender in Carry On Abroad? 82 next year and his last role was also in Eastenders (13 years ago) He's well known for other stuff mainly like Mr Benn, Big Deal etc but may be considered too young and with no word on his condition the committee may cast his inclusion aside. Ray Brooks voiced the Rupert Bear series on BBC1 in the late 80's. He famously said that the inane rhyming couplets & the repetitious format of the series meant he was as drunk as possible without slurring the words before each session in the recording studio. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
