Was that the very first time he said that catch-phrase? I'm sure he must have said it virtually every appearance after that. Or maybe it just seems that way. Grace Brothers antics were a big part of my Saturday evenings when I were a tyke. Along with chips and too much vinegar. So another little bit of my childhood is gone, in a way.
Not sure how much we understood then (being under 10 or so) about what Inman's campness meant, but then camp was a common type in british comedy and we didn't see it as anything out of the ordinary. As Wendy Craig said on the radio yesterday, the writers never directly referred to the possibility that he was gay, but rather they just wrote him as a young man who dressed well and really loved his mother. |
