No, a large scotch! Pints were for the workers.

I think the Winchester closed when the actor playing the much put-upon
proprietor died years ago.

Glyn Edwards is still very much alive - at least according to Wiki.

And he fared rather better in "Minder" than he did in "Get Carter"
where he was stabbed to death by Michael Caine.

Although, SWMBO and I caught one a couple of years ago. Despite both
being massive (childhood) fans, we had to admit, it hadn't aged well

Best left as a memory.

**I rather liked the one where Arfur purchased some hearses. Said the
funeral director, about the cars: "....silent as an angel's fart."


**A Scottish accent, I recall?

I recall Welsh, and the joke being his name was Mr. De'ath

Funny how some things can last for 30 years, beyond my recall of LaPlace
transforms and Fourier analysis.

Oh dear, my apologies to Mr Edwards for over-exaggerating a report of
his death! (I wonder who I was confusing him with...)

See 18 minutes into this U-tube.

Looks like every episode of Minder made is on U-tube.
