Richard Wilson has revealed he urged BBC bosses to axe hit sitcom One Foot In The Grave after becoming fed up of fans yelling his character Victor Meldrew’s legendary catchphrase at him in public.
One Foot In The Grave aired for 10 years between 1990 and 2000 with as many as 18 million viewers tuning in each week to follow the exploits of Wilson’s curmudgeonly character’s hapless exploits – until he was finally killed off.
