'Likely Lad' Dies At 79

[Arthur Little]

Sadly, ... Rodney Bewes, who played social~climbing Bob Ferris alongside James Bolam's "Jack the Lad", Terry Collier in the popular mid-60s sitcom series, has passed away a few days shy of what would've been his 80th birthday.

Pleasant memories of a cosy little comedy series from the 70s.

Very sad.

... shame too, that he and James Bolam were destined never to rekindle their friendship after their rift, due to the latter's obstinacy over a fairly trivial matter!

Life is far too short to harbour grudges.

Maybe I'm wrong ... ... who knows!?! But somehow, ... I seem to get the impression Bolam turned into a rather bitter & cantankerous in his later years.
