Some people seem to know about this (Gary Critcher and David Brunt for example) – but many who know nothing of this mysterious scriptwriter Roger Bunce!!\u00a0 Could it be a TV cameraman succumbing to the lure of words without pictures?\u00a0 <\/p>\n\n\n\n

“\u2026A one-time playwright in 1979\u2026”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So was it \u201cour\u201d Roger Bunce or not? I don\u2019t trust those radio lot – there was another Nick Ware working in BBC radio, a producer, I think. I occasionally used to get his payslips, and his were a lot more than mine. And as if that wasn\u2019t enough, there was also Peter Ware (as you all know): same thing, I sometimes got his! In that particular case, I think my middle initial \u2018P\u2019 was the spanner in the works. Ware isn\u2019t that common a surname, but I\u2019ve always been immensely proud of my ancestor Armitage Ware, who was best known for loitering in the toilet!
