Known for his television writing work on such popular British situation comedies as Are You Being Served?, 'Allo 'Allo!, and Come Back Mrs. Noah, this author also had a career as an entertainer, appearing on the comedy program Rowan & Martin's Laugh-In.
He began writing professionally in the late 1950s and made his screen acting debut in the 1960 film School for Scoundrels.
He and composer Jim Parker collaborated on a two-volume set of poetry and music recordings titled Captain Beaky & His Band.
