"Listen up you absolute shower ! Dear old Terry Thomas, the absolute
bounder and cad of all time, was born 100 years ago this week ! Yes,
I know what you are thinking.... "Gosh ! I say !! " No one was ever
better at wearing a carnation in his buttonhole, sporting a gap-toothed
grin, twirling his moustache, claiming to be an army major.....then winking
at a busty barmaid and saying.....(slyly) "Well....hellooo !" No one ever
cheated at cards, air races, cricket, car races, golf and wooing the ladies
like spiffing TT.
"We all know he`s not with us anymore, worse luck !
"So, be a set of good chaps and watch a Terry Thomas movie this weekend
- Jim Slip loves him outfoxing Ian Carmichael in "School for Scoundrels", I
chortle at his rakish tango with Joyce Grenfell in "Blue Murder At St Trinians"
or his cactus collecting major in "Its A Mad Mad Mad Mad World"....
"So get on with it you shower ! As Sir Percy or Sir Cuthbert Ware-Armitage,
the dastardly father-son duo of "Those Magnificent Men In Their Flying
Machines" and "Monte Carlo Or Bust" would say...."Bog off !!"

Here's Terry Thomas's BP commercial he made in 1950, during which he utilises all his looks and expressions. Note the health and safety issues as he drives into a petrol station smoking a fag! lol

I met him once, briefly. He seemed to be always in character.

Played Roger Moores relation in The Persuaders too!

Not the TV series, rather it was 'Munsters Go Home', a 1966 feature film involving the family visiting ( a very Hollywood back-lot) England.

No need to shout. Of course it was still the Munsters, but some who may not have been that familiar with the details might have been trying to remember a tv episode with him in it.
