Leonard Rossiter

[Waterways]

I was researching a book on Rising Damp a few years back, and got in touch with Christopher Strauli who plays John in the film of the series.

He took Richard Beckinsdale's part pretty much, and Chris told me that Leonard was indeed a comedy genius, but never made any attempt to make him welcome on set.
One day Leonard exclaimed..."It worked before, so if it doesn't work now, we all know who to blame"...

If that was his attitude, then that is totally unprofessional.
