To reach Meldrew Point is to be the same age Richard Wilson was when episode 1 of One Foot In The Grave first aired. I don't believe it, et cetera...
This little clip is from the fourth series, but encapsulates Victor's rage against the dying of the light very well.
Sadly Meldrew Point is now but a distant memory!

DeleteYep, peak Meldrew.
ReplyDeleteA brilliantly grumpy old man!
DeleteHappy birthday! (I think Richard Wilson looked a lot older)
ReplyDeleteThank you, C. It's the hair, I think...
DeleteIs your birthday on the 9th? If so, same as my boy. Belated birthday wishes anyway.
ReplyDeleteThis reminds me of my similar Inspector Morse realisation....
It is, and cheers. Also many happy returns to S.
DeleteBelated birthday greetings Martin.
ReplyDeleteCheers.
