Spade_Cooley 9,562 Posted August 13, 2015 I found from following the current health status of one of my DDP picks, (Ladies and Gentlemen Mr) Burt Kwouk, that he and Maynard apparently keep up regular phone contact with each other. Strange friendship, were they ever in the same show together? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
maryportfuncity 10,662 Posted August 13, 2015 I found from following the current health status of one of my DDP picks, (Ladies and Gentlemen Mr) Burt Kwouk, that he and Maynard apparently keep up regular phone contact with each other. Strange friendship, were they ever in the same show together? I felt sure Bill would have turned up at least once on Last of the Summer Wine but, according to t'internet, he hasn't.

Spade_Cooley 9,562 Posted August 13, 2015 I was surprised Kwouk never turned up in a nice racially progressive, fully-rounded role in a Carry On film. Perhaps called something like Wan King or Slin Tee Eyes. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Spade_Cooley 9,562 Posted August 13, 2015 You're right. Although our Bill was already up to no good in Aidensfield by that point, meaning he couldn't steal the film in the role of Pope Innocent VIII. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
