    Fairly sure I have two correct. Know the first was in early 70s. Can not think of Connors character in Cabby. Will look it up them. Ted Watson.

    One for Louise and Shirley. A comedy from the 80s.

    Bernie is the perfect host to two young friends. Only one small problem, he is dead. Now he is the life of the party from the grave.

    I don't know that one, either, Craig. I have never been much of a TV person.

    The answers are Peter Butterworth dressed up as a female cabby in Carry On Cabby.
    And Oddball was the strange looking monster in Screaming. Very good effort Craig! (⁠•⁠‿⁠•⁠)

    Babs Windsor and Joan Simms.

    Lovely little Esma Cannon.


    Charles Hawtrey was a learner cab driver.

    I don't recall the name in your last question (⁠◔⁠‿⁠◔⁠)

    Correct on 1&2. Agree on Esma Cannon. Played the dizzy old girl to perfection.
    I meant Charlie's character Jessica.
    Sorry this pic says it was not Butterworth, but Connor Jess.
