Only difference is Flech (Ronnie Barker) was clever enough to protect Godber without getting on the wrong side of the bad boy Harry Grout, unlike Phil Mitchell, who "had to be removed for his own safety".
Ronnie Barker's shoes are very big if you're trying to fill them Steve.
I did enjoy it on a superficial level.
In reply to moto67, yes, a spin-off of him inside, and if that catches on they could do another show about after he gets out, and wouldn''t he make a really good grocer...

i know it said two weeks earlier but that doesnt work out for the frame time of when shirley went to see him?
why would he assume he was gonna get out after ben went to see him ? he tells ian tonight ben isnt his son anymore. it said he saw his brief so was that when he said to shirley in mondays ep "i saw her yesterday" as he had the scares then
god confusing lol
