It is pretty well known on the net that the lead in this old Uk comedy with Michael Crawford is supposedly Aspergers...see what you think. The first is a classic scene of him rollerskating and includes an old London Routemaster(cockneyrebel might like this!) Note he also did all his own stunts.

Yes. I like the skating one myself, but then it is the best known scene as he actually did all that...no stuntman, no faking it. Of course, he went on to play the Phantom Of The Opera in the London show.

I've often thought that. Great programme though. :lol:

Incidentally, all location scenes were filmed in Bedford, about 10 miles from my hometown.

Thought you might... I keep watching these again, they really are so classically funny. And he really does come across as very aspie to me, with his misinterpretation of things.

I like that programme. Very funny.

He reminds me of me...accident prone, and everything (well some things) one touches, they break. :lol: :lol:
