My dad was a member of the film crew on "open all hours" and so I got to meet the man a few times when I was younger.  I then followed in my dads footsteps and also worked on film crews and  got to meet the man a couple more times. When I was younger he always made me laugh when I was older he made me laugh even more and I know he will make me laugh for a long time to come, the man was a comic genius and will be fondly remembered.  :cry:

The show was just called 'Clarence' I think.

Ronnie played the title role 'Clarence Sale'
