I can vaguely remember the Grove Family....and The Army game was one of my Ma's favourite TV shows......with bootsie and snudge....and excused boots.
But as for the others.......they passed me by. I must have led a sheltered life

I do, our family loved "The Groves".

I rather fancied Michael Medwin, Corporal Springer in The Army Game, but I stopped watching it when Alfie Bass and Bill Fraser (Bootsie and Snudge) came in. I couldn't stand either of them.
