Hector was a wonderful part for me. I was also upset tonight that Hector has gone but I will have only happy memories of a great job. (people)
I have been in the series for over 3 years - 3 series. There will be a fourth series next year which of course I won't be in because I'm now dead. So in total I appeared in 25 episodes. (work)
I knew absolutely nothing about acting, and had to be taught everything. Some people are born naturals and know how to walk, talk and hold themselves. I didn't and had to learn everything. (acting and actors)
I love the part of Hector as it takes me back to playing eccentric parts. He is a funny character, which is fine by me as I've been playing for laughs for decades now! It's lovely to get a laugh; it's the best thing in the world! (acting and actors)

I prefer theatre but TV keeps you well known. (theater)
I reluctantly left the series because a) my age. I'm 68 tomorrow and time is very precious for me to spend time at home with my family and especially with the grandchildren. They're aged 7 and 5. After three years I became homesick for my home. (age)
I used to make minor alterations and often shorten lines that were rather literary to make them more naturalistic. But my contribution was very small. (acting and actors)
I was 20, I was an amateur from 14 but my first professional role was at 22. (acting and actors)
They've been watching repeats of the Good Life but they don't understand that this young good-looking young man is now their white haired old man. (acting and actors)
We need more theatres, more art and more culture in this country. (theater)
