themaninblack 2,112 Posted October 4, 2005 A great comic actor. Funnily enough I was watching a film from 1963 - 'Father Came Too', which had Ronnie Barker in it. And I was only thinking 'there's a few in this that are still alive' and I was thinking of Stanley Baxter and Leslie Philips.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
