Goodbye to Phil Archer

on November 23, 2009 10:40 AM | No Comments | No TrackBacks

It was the end of an era for Archers fans last night.

Just before 7.15pm, Norman Painting spoke his final words on the R4 series as Phil Archer.
 
He'd had nearly 60 years in the role (the longest an actor has ever played the same part) and this episode was recorded just before his death last month.

"You'll be shattered by Christmas Day," were his final words.
