All Gas and Gaiters
All Gas and Gaiters was a popular British sitcom which ran on BBC from 1966 to 1971. It was written by Pauline Devaney[?] and Edwin Apps[?]. Thirty-two episodes were made in all.
The series initially aroused some controversy because of its portrayal of senior churchmen as bungling incompetents. The four main characters who featured in every episode were:
- The Bishop -- William Mervyn[?]
- The Archdeacon[?] -- Robertson Hare[?]
- The Chaplain, Rev. Mervyn Noote -- Derek Nimmo
- The Dean -- John Barron[?] and later Ernest Clark[?]
