[QUOTE="AndyB2008, post: 286524, member: 26097"] Ref Joan Sanderson, she looked like the one holding After Henry together on TV (and radio). Telling how the writer pulled the plug after she died rather than carrying it on (well that and Thames TV losing the franchise), as if he knew it wouldn't work with another actress recast in her role. The writer did reunite later with Prunella Scales for the radio series Smelling of Roses, but the magic wasn't there compared to After Henry and it's not really as remembered. Clearly Joan Sanderson was part of the main success of AH than he realised (same with Rosemary Leach keeping his No Commitments sitcom afloat, as she was there for the whole entire run as Anna while the actresses playing her sisters Victoria and Charlotte changed more times than the Sugababes changed members).
