Richard Wilson is one of our greatest comedy actors. His roles have included a number of TV classics from Some Mothers Do 'Ave 'Em to Only When I Laugh and Crown Court.
However, it was Richard's portrayal of Victor Meldrew in BBC sitcom One Foot in the Grave which made him a household name. In 2014, Richard appeared on stage in 'The Dog' at Frinton Summer Theatre, the country's oldest weekly repertory company.
