Happy Birthday old thespians Rodney Bewes and John Alderton

Rodney Bewes is 72 today, but for many of us he will always be in in his thirties as the English actor playing the lovable Bob Ferris in the classic BBC sitcoms 'The Likely Lads' and 'Whatever Happened to the Likely Lads?'

John Alderton is 69 today, but like Rodney, he too will always be in his thirties playing the hapless teacher, Mr Hedges in the t.v. sitcom, 'Please, Sir!'









Here is the trailor of the film in which he starred in 1971 when he was 31 and Britain was a very different place to the one it is it is today.
