The death of George Cole, so soon after that of Cilla Black, marks the passing of the Golden Age of ITV. Only the BBC would make Minder now.
Over there, Cole did manage to reunite with Dennis Waterman, when he had a cameo in New Tricks.
Alas, Rodney Bewes never did grace it in the James Bolam years; The Likely Lads have not spoken in decades.
It might have been a bit much to hope for Sir Michael Caine or for Britt Ekland when Alun Armstrong was in it.
But there is time yet for Sir David Jason to reappear opposite Nicholas Lyndhurst.
