      Agreed. I like Karl Howman in many of the shows he was in, but Lindsay was better as Smith as Howman was more of a joke caricature of a Ted.

    The reason Robert Lindsey had a replacement was for him to star in Wolfe Smith in Citizen Smith a brilliant sitcom. Karl Howman after replacing Robert later went on to star in Brush Strokes another funny sitcom.

    Just watched episode 1 series 5....Still finding it good to watch and the new actor i think pulls off the part pretty well....Instead of Robert Lindsay.....Was a shame though.Thought they could have put it into the story line that he had failed the medics course so badly....He had to re do the whole course again...Or Demobbed as unfit for duty !! (A victory for him though lol)

      @npc3po301 4 роки тому +2

      I agree, Howman coming in as a new character would've been kinder to the viewers, kinder to Smifff and kinder to Howman who must've known there'd be an air of resentment at him filling Lindsays shoes so abruptly, it wouldn't have been so hard to juggle the script to fit that, the erks or Marsh referencing him in certain situations would've given the replacement some charm even, imagine Marsh and Howman butting heads and Marsh saying "If you were that erk Smiff.." and Howman interrupting him with "yeah but I'm not Smifff am I.." Howman does well tho, funnily enough during some scenes in earlier series I found some of Lindsays mannerisms quite Howmanesque, they probably fought over a few parts through the years

Ruark was the Commanding officer at RAF Midham, we only see him once when the outgoing CO hands over to Ruark. So He could have had a posting himself although in the time line he'd only have been in charge of medical training at Midham for a few months at best.

    Could you refuse to do National Service in those days ? I heard some men painted their nails and said they were " queer " !! My father said he was sick of them ! He waS RAF ( 1935 to 1972 ) . He said National Service Airmen were just a burden and he got sick of teaching and supervising Airmen who didn't care , didn't want to learn and didn't want to be there ! It was a waste of resources and took away from those that wanted the RAF as a career and he was glad when National service ended !

    I think it became too forced by this time to believe the continued inclusion of Marsh. And also by this time he had lost ALL his self respect, and we lost all respect for him as well. They should have left him at RAF Skelton. :>/

      Marsh always has a place in the script. If they remove him then the whole series is nill and void. I do agree that they should not have replace Jakey Smith, they should have said he stayed behind or got demobbed.

    Hmm. Well, I'll give this series a chance, but it seems a tad silly putting them all together again after the obvious conclusion at the end of series 4.
    Was it done for money, by popular demand or some other reason?
    I have just watched the first 4 series over 6 consecutive days.
    It seems to me that it will be, mostly, a rehash of situations we've seen.
