#ArthurLowe stars for the first time as Redvers Potter in the new sitcom by Roy Clarke, POTTER.
Here's a trailer from the first series, the opening to the first episode, and Arthur discussing the character in his final TV interview in 1982.
Tonight, I will watch the final 3 episodes of PARDON THE EXPRESSION with "The Switched-On Scene", "The Cup That Cheers". and "Down on the Health Farm Something Stirred". Tomorrow, I start THE ADVENTURES OF RUPERT BEAR. #ITV #Granada #PardontheExpression #ArthurLowe

Tonight we start the wind down of PARDON THE EXPRESSION. Tonight's episodes are "The Ghost of Batsworth Castle Walks Again" & "The Sailor Home from the Sea" and I am happy to see that there has been, in my opinion, a marked improvement. #PardontheExpression #ArthurLowe #Granada #ITV #TVTimes
#OnThisDay 6 January 1967
#ArthurLowe returns as Leonard Swindley in the first episode of #CoronationStreet spin-off Turn Out The Lights; a comedy also starring Robert Dorning and #BettyDriver, as the following week's TV Times shows.
This week, I return to the viewing of my regular series PARDON THE EXPRESSION. I left off with Series 2 " The Goalbirds" & "The Host with the Most". Those who have seen this series before, what do you think? I find it very middling. Your thoughts? #PardontheExpression #ArthurLowe #ITV #Granada

I LIKE THIS BOLD LITTLE TYRANT
When #ArthurLowe is asked whether he is really like the characters who have brought him fame, Leonard Swindley in #CoronationStreet and Captain Mainwaring in Dad's Army, he says: "I'm really very fond of Mainwaring ..."

Watching PARDON THE EXPRESSION with tonight's episode "Self Defence", I was amused to see Mr. Swindley reading "Honor Blackman's Book of Self Defence" and also a nice early appearance from John Woodvine! #PardontheExpression #ArthurLowe #Granada #ITV

MR SWINDLEY TURNS TO COMEDY SHOWS
Mr Swindley is saying Goodbye to #CoronationStreet soon . . . to start his own television comedy series. #ArthurLowe, 49, said:
"I have deliberately asked to be taken out so that I can do other acting work."
Tonight's Christmas episode of PARDON THE EXPRESSION saw some very familar foes take over the store. It really must have been something to have been a part of Dalekmania in the 1960s. #PardontheExpression #Granada #ITV #ArthurLowe #Daleks

Soon #CoronationStreet will be eight years and 850 episodes old. Of the old regulars, 19 have moved on. Some have asked to go, others were written out. What happened to them? Where are they now?
Includes #KennethCope, #ArthurLowe and #PhilipLowrie.

Last week was the busiest week of the year for me for my job so I wasn't able to really watch any PARDON THE EXPRESSION. Tonight I pick up where I left off with "The Dance" and "The Wedding". #PardontheExpression #ArthurLowe #Granada #ITV #TVTimes
