Another sad loss, a Great character actor, who played the spiv 'Flash Harry' in four of the early St Trinian films with Alistair Sim, as well as Flavius in Cleopatra opposite Elizabeth Taylor & Richard Burton. 'Arfur' Rest in Peace

Two funny moments from "Minder" that have stayed with me. Arthur Daley bribes a railway signal box operator and when his oppo seems shocked he spoke of what a boring job the man had with the only excitement being Jimmy Saville waving at him from a train. The other being telling his minder that "the world was his lobster".
