So today I learnt my grandfather had an affair with June Brown on 18:23 - Apr 5 by vilanovablue
As well as being the original man from Del Monte who said yes. I was there for the filming of Bells the episode of Blackadder he was in.
And so as the loose-bowelled pigeon of time swoops low over the unsuspecting tourist of destiny, and the flatulent skunk of fate wanders into the air-conditioning system of eternity, I notice it's the end of the show

'She admitted three affairs with married lovers. One was actor Edward Jewesbury, who she slept with in a field when she was 21, almost making herself late for a performance.'
The old straw-chewer who was leaning on the five-bar gate watching (and throttling the turkey), didn't think there was anything late about the 'performance', in fact he thought your Grandpapa came in right 'on the Dot'.

Can we have some context here
was it ages ago or last week?
This was we think in the 1940s she was 21, my grandfather was an actor as well. In the 80s she tried to get back together with him, my grandmother had died. We were living with him at this point and my mum had to answer the phone for months because he wasn't interested.

Oh woah! That’s quite a story
My grandfather was a bit of a rogue and although essentially just a jobbing actor did some pretty cool roles. He was described as well known in the profession. He worked closely with Branagh and was in all his 90s Shakespeare movies.

I am so jealous of you being at the filming of Blackadder II. Not least because I was totally beguiled by young Bob. It was the way he filled out his breeches, I think...
IMDB says that your grandfather also had the misfortune to work on "Comin' Atcha!", the tv vehicle for notoriously difficult girl band Cleopatra. I hope that he sacked his agent for landing him with that job!
But he had an amazingly long and busy career, with tv credits going right back to before WW2. There must have been some stories told round your family table at Christmas, even if the June Brown dalliance was hush-hush!

Yes he had an incredible career which lasted an incredibly long time. Seeing Blackadder being filmed and also a lot of his theatre stuff was great. He had some terrible jobs but the money was good and he was quite pragmatic. Gabi Glaister (Bob) and my grandfather ended up good friends and she came to a few of his parties. Branagh proposed to Emma Thompson in my grandfather's garden! Endless stories...
