Re: Brit Sitcom Game.

Remember the hit that Estelle and Davies had with Whispering Grass in the mid-70s?

To be fair Davies just spoke whilst Estelle sang (nice voice too)

Estelle had a surprisingly good voice and I remember he and Davies being on Top of the Pops at the time.

Who played the indian in It Ain't Half Hot, Mum who did the monologues to camera? Clue...he was also in the first few series of a very long running sitcom about 3 disreputable pensioners.
