A Young Barry?

[RickAns]

Can't remember how I stumbled across this youtube video to begin with. About 1 minute and 17 seconds in the young man looks and sounds a lot like our Barry from LotSW in a Pepsi commercial.

The advert just before this features Penelope Keith. A fan of hers from The Good Life / Good Neighbors, To the Manor Born, No Job for a Lady.

Oh yes, I remember seeing a young Barry in a small part in an episode of the series Lucky Feller with David Jason.

Yes, it's definitely Barry.

The advert before Penelope Keith brought back memories , the catch phrase watch out there's a Humphrey about was coined by everyone

I can easily imagine Barry's initial approach to Glenda having been very similar to the approach in the advert.

It would not be with the offer of a can of Pepsi! If they were indeed picking "blackberries" , as they told Edie , then perhaps an Innocent Smoothie is more appropriate , a term , well 50 % of , you can level at Barry, certainly the former rather than the latter.

Wouldn't the "blackberry picking" have come long after their first meeting, well into their very long courtship? Actually, I doubt that Barry approached Glenda. The character was so timid that it seems more likely that she approached him.

Who knows , first date walking along a leafy lane would seem romantic and appropriate , especially as Edie would have spies strategically placed along the route .

Those ads - I watched the whole clip - brought back memories. SKOL, BRUT and of course "nah Luton Airport"

Whatever would Glenda say her Barry chatting up women and needing a haircut and Edie is quate alarmed by it all and has to have a coffee morning in case Mrs Cornwall Harris hears about it ,oh heavens !
