A few random thoughts

Thank you to everyone who took the time to reply, I have always looked at Summer Wine as a distraction from "edgy" comedy shows, I am not a prude, but, I enjoyed the gentle and silly humour, I realise no actor should ever be bigger than the show he or she is in, but I found the compo trilogy after the death of Bill Owen had some touching moments and fine script writing.
 
Agree with you that the Compo trilogy episodes can really pull on the heart strings. Goes to show how good the other actors and writing really are to be able to handle Bill's passing as a much loved actor and character.
 
IF you search the threads , there are still members on here who cannot bring themselves to watch those episodes because they are so emotional which is testimony to the compassionate way Roy Clarke handled Bill's passing, the episodes are a mix of pathos and humour handled beautifully by all who participated in their making . It must have been the most difficult time for all the of the cast and crew.

You can see it especially on Peter's face how difficult it was but I think adding humor was the right thing to do, I know especially " up North " humor is a big part of funerals, it's how the grief is dealt with.
