Lyndon brings us back to Rosenman again...    Posted:   Jun 17, 2021 - 12:33 AM     By:   Stephen Woolston   (Member) He's a good supporting actor. Becoming famous for sitcoms in his later years is kind-of double edged for me. On the one hand, he achieved a fame he wasn't achieving as a supporting actor in serious features. On the other hand, he's remembered for low budget tat. Funny low budget tat, yes, but tat. Me, I'd have preferred to be remembered for 2001.

Carry on!    Posted:   Jun 17, 2021 - 5:52 AM     By:   tony weeks   (Member) He was actually in 5 John Barry scored films.

Carry on! Rossiter & Rossington were casted in The Wrong Box - Rossington was in the 3 earliest Carry-On movies, they're better watches than the later one's that get more nauseating, Barring Carry-On Screaming!    Posted:   Jun 18, 2021 - 8:49 AM     By:   Tall Guy   (Member) PPPHHHUUUURRP!

Neither Mrs TG nor I got where we are today without knowing what you’re referring to.    Posted:   Jun 18, 2021 - 9:50 AM     By:   ian642002   (Member) I didn't get where I am today by not knowing whether Mrs TG nor yourself got where you were today without knowing what I'm referring to.

Just a digression here to give a nod to Ronnie Hazlehurst's theme to that show, a melancholy and fittingly wistful piece that perfectly summed up the gradual comic breakdown of Rossiter's character. Hazlehurst was a busy man in the 70s and 80s at the BBC, and this was one of his peaks.    Posted:   Jun 20, 2021 - 3:42 PM     By:   Paul MacLean   (Member)     General Discussion: Why no love for Leonard Rossiter?    < 1 2  > >>  Go to page:  1 2   First Post    General Discussion • Trading Post • Non-Film Score Discussion  Profile • Preferences • Community Rules • Help/Contact • Search Board You must log in or register to post.   Go to page:  1 2
