Wilfrid Brambell was one of Britain's most loved and complex
character actors. As Albert Ladysmith Steptoe, the unscrupulous
rag-and-bone man with questionable habits in Ray Galton and Alan
Simpson's long-running Steptoe & Son, he quickly became a
household name with co-star Harry H. Corbett. But despite scores of
other successes in roles on stage, TV and film, Brambell died a sad
and lonely man. Alongside fame and fortune, 'You Dirty Old Man!'
reveals how Brambell suffered unbelievable personal heartache,
battling an inner turmoil that eventually drove him to drink as his
marriage collapsed in the most deceitful circumstances imaginable.
His torment led to a secretive life off camera where he did
everything possible to stay out of the public eye. Featuring
original interviews with film directors Richard Lester, Terence
Davies and Tony Palmer, as well as recollections from his own
family members, the family of Harry H. Corbett and those who worked
alongside him, author David Clayton seeks to re-examine the legacy
of a man whose loyal fanbase remains undiminished sixty years on
from his heyday.
