Minder - Royal Variety Sketch 1982

A short Minder sketch with Dennis Waterman and George Cole. Cole was performing in The Pirates of Penzance, with Waterman in Windy City, hence both had musical performances too!

2 greats, sadly are no longer with us, but Minder will live on forever, and we will never forget such talent as George Cole and Dennis Waterman

Rest in peace george cole and dennis waterman

God bless ‘em both. From an era when box ticking didn’t exist.

Arguably one of the best series to ever be broadcast on television, great stories and acting, not like the piffle we have to put up with now.

[jeffreyhodge]

Still brilliant today in 2024, compulsive viewing everyday on television, all the characters as well, Chisholm, Taff, ryecroft, the Winchester and all the local villains tv with its actors, scripts and settings pure gold !👍

Fantastic minder one of the best programmes ever Terry and Arthur still watch the repeats ctid 😮

[paulhagen]

I remember watching Minder in the early Eighties and thinking, this is pretty good. Now when I watch it I think it's 'fantastic', particularly Gearge Cole. What a character he created with Arthur.

[markbarker]

There`s nothing as good as this on TV nowdays.

I loved Minder. Two great character actors. Dennis was also great in the Sweeney and New Tricks. RIP all the great actors that were in these programmes. Too many to mention here.

I absolutely love watching the re runs..it was part of my life to look forward to the next Minder..
It was a piece of my diet in life..
And I would do it again exactly the same..
I read George Coles book..The world is my Lobster..
It was excellent..
These 2 were like Rhubarb and Custard.. you couldn't really eat them separately..
A toast to you 2 gentlemen.
I'm glad I grew up with you both..
Thank you

Lucy, Thanks for reviving happy memories of Terry & Arthur-this time taking their unique & funny banter to the stage!

I loved Minder, from day one "Gunfight at the OK launderette"
I was hooked and is and always brings a wide smile knowing the next hour will take me back to those times...thanks for this upload 👍🙂

Good to see them in something new, well new to me.

I loved mimder. Arthur daley and terry mccann were a great double act. George cole was also in a one off sweeney episode when he was being bullied by a younger man. The third regular actor in minder was dave the barman in the winchester club played brilliantly by glynn edwards. R.i.p. to all of them.

This is great. Never seen it before. Not found something as good as this since i found terry and arthur had been on TOTP singing. Classic.🥰

[raycope]

I still love " Minder " when I watch it today.
Those two had a real chemistry together.
It entertained us, unlike the piss=poor woke unfunny attempts at comedy today, by performers without personality, who are afraid of their own pathetic shadows.
RIP Arthur, Tel and Dave.

Ps Minder on the Orient and Minder down under fantastic fun.

[Catharguy]

Both wre very good at their trade, George Cole's Arther Daley was not supposed to be the main character in Minder but his involvement and acting and Dennis Waterman's undoubted talent, just made Minder an extraordinary show to watch.
