Some amazing writing in those episodes.

 

[Brian Johns]

Agreed Pearl! Seen these episodes numerous times...still gets me!!

(Nods in agreement) Must have been incredibly tough to have done those episodes right after he passed away.

We've often talked about how hard it must have been to do the Trilogy after Bill died. And it's true, it must have been very difficult for all of them. But it just dawned on me, they had 3 other episodes to finish that Bill wasn't able to complete. "Lipstick and Other Problems," "Under the Rug," and "Magic and the Morris Minor." In these they had to keep their emotions in check, because in the series, Compo was still alive at that point. It must have been a challenge to keep on as though nothing had changed.

............... which is why our beloved cast were such consummate actors and at the top of their profession.
