if you could be any character in any part of the shows history what would that character be? Would you be Compo or Cleggy, Ivy or Anty Waneright, Smiller of Eli, or anyone else in the show.
what character would you be
- Thread starter Norman Clegg
- Start date
What a great question, probably Compo he was generally very content with his lot in life. And most importantly he lived in the moment which we all need to do more of!

I'd probably be Sid. Well controlled by Ivy, but he also found time to get off the lead and play with the trio occasionally.
I'm guessing you'd be Cleggy by your name?

I will make a case for a few.
1. Clegg - This is how I see myself playing out redundant and retired years. Hanging out with the guys, adventures in the countryside, and fellowship at the cafe and pubs. Clegg often got to be the side compliment to the lead man and Compo, just offering his odd philosophies.
2. Billy - Got to hang out with the guys and play out his Robin Hood fantasies. However, his home life didn't seem all that happy.
3. Alvin - He was perhaps the most content, taking part in all of the adventures with the guys and enjoying his pestering of Nora.

It's a shame Alvin never met Compo. They could have shared tips on how to handle Nora, although I think Compo may have got a bit jealous of Alvin stealing his "bird".

Compo would have been REALLY jealous of Alvin. If he was jealous of the depressing Smiler, he would have been really envious of the lively Alvin. Of course, Alvin probably would have never entered the scene if Compo continued.

Assuming that I could adopt either sex for the occasion, I'd be Alvin. He's good-natured in a pleasantly barmy way, an apparently enthusiastic cook, a good housekeeper, and he seems to get the maximum fun out of life.
Now I'll return to being a rather serious, aging female, if you please.

Some would say he has a Bobbys Job
Only Scouted for crooks and criminals 7 days a year on Bobby Job week and only very spasmodically because he had pins and needles in his legs and other attached areas which is why he had a tender foot
If you were caught committing a crime you'd want them to turn up, or Cagney & Lacey from Early Doors. I'm not sure which were the laziest pair of coppers !Only Scouted for crooks and criminals 7 days a year on Bobby Job week and only very spasmodically because he had pins and needles in his legs and other attached areas which is why he had a tender foot

Phil and Nige [Cagney and Lacey] were bigger crooks than the crims plus as lazy if not more lazy than Cooper and Walsh .
