John Inman really did add to the sense of fun in the nation's life, though the 'right on' brigade predicatably demurred. Not surprising that the po-faced Guardian had a sour article this week.
Favourite John Inman moment?
Probably the pantomime episode when the staff are trying (in vain) to find a tuffet strong enough to support Mrs Slocombe in the part of Little Miss Muffet. Captain Peacock suggests helpfully:
'I think there's a 12 inch pouf in soft furnishings.'
To which Mr Humphries replied:
'I'd have thought he'd have been better off in novelties!'
Happy days.
