Summer Wine Cast - Important Dates

By Mike Fernley


Many thanks Mike for compiling this useful list of special dates - birthdays and sadly dates of deaths too. 

We do receive regular enquiries from fans, particular asking about the anniversary of the death of Compo, and other actors too. Hopefully, this will help to answer a few questions. 
Patrick Brooke, Editor.
