David Barry, who played Frankie Abbot, Carol Hawkins who played Sharon, Peter Cleall who played Duffy are all still alive, and working as well.

Deryck Guyler played Norman Potter who was the caretaker in Please Sir. Mr Price was the Welsh school teacher. You Americans should pay proper attention to the series and get your facts right.

Derek Guyler played Potter not Price.Price was the bald Welsh teacher.

My favourite student was Carol Hawkins. I only watched the program because of her. Now though she is 74 years old.

Carol of course played Sharon, the class bombshell, but the first Sharon (in episodes up until 1971) was played by Penny Spencer, equally bombshell. Both still look great in their mid-70s.

Carol Hawkins was the second actress who played Sharon, one of the students. I personally preferred her predecessor, Penny Spencer.

Loved this as a kid and it was always on early enough for me to watch as a nine or ten year old. Many may also recognise Joan Sanderson from a cameo she had in Fawlty Towers as the awkward guest with the hearing aid? And it's "Zed Cars" as the vast majority of world would pronounce it.

She played Mrs Alice Richards. It wasn't a cameo role as she was central to the whole story line, it revolved around her character. Cameo means a brief appearance.

Derek Guyler was also a very enthusiastic wargamer, belonging as I did to the Society of Ancients, which was and is dedicated to research into ancient warfare and fighting battles from the safety of... the tabletop. Saw John Alderton as a distressed army veteran in Heartbeat.

Blimmey i can honestly say every cast member was absolutely brilliant and necessary which made it work Joan WAS my favourite because I had a boss identical to her which no long tea ☕ breaks 😂 cheers Stephen 🍀✌️👍

Derek Guyler's voice is still used in every performance of The Mouse Trap where he reads the news on the radio.

Thank goodness I recognised the ladies of gentlemen from this excellent comedy! Unfortunately the narrator got most of the information wrong! Don’t you fact check your info before butchering it? Please sir, happy days.

Its amazing really a ll this cast were old school actors of high quality for many years before the huge coverage that this series got made them household names in those years and as another respondent says Joan Sanderson will forever be thought of for that part the old bat in Fawlty towers the power of Television was then at a height we will not see again.

Dated? Well, aren't we all, Alan? ;0) I suppose every dog has his day. Now, thanks to VPN, I drop in on NZ television and see things from the antipodean viewpoint.

Guyler played Potter

Haven't read the comments section yet, but, WHAT HAPPENED TO STUDENTS ; "DUFFY" & especially "SHARON" ?? SHARON (or the actress who played Sharon) was regarded at my high-school "As Fit As A Butcher's Dog" All, as in ALL the lads fancied her like crazy, both lusting & drooling over her It all got swept aside later in 1974 when Annifrid' ("Frida") & Agnetha turned-up singing "Waterloo" ("fit birds")

And what of those actors and actresses who played the pupils??Your title is very misleading

Price was a teacher!

John Alderton, britains James Stewart❤

It's Zed cars!

Fond memories

Derek Guyler played Nr. Potter and not as stated Smith.

John was also in fenn street gang

Great series and film. Joan Saunderson was born in Bristol not Dublin

Derek Guyler played Mr Potter not Price and was never in Doctor Who as far as my and IMDB's memory recalls ? Miss Yule was the Deputy Head not Headmistress. The Police series was called "Zed Cars" nor Zee Cars. Only 5/10 - Could do better.

You need to re title this, as some of the students are still alive, such as eric and one of the sharons plus i think peter.

Not Dave - ees' he was Dave- iss' not zee cars zed cars.

'Zee' cars? Nope, no, it was 'zed cars.'

I don't mean to be rude but if you're going to talk about a classic TV show you need to watch it first and get the characters and the actors who played them right.

Not quite accurate. At least three members of the cast are still alive.

Misleading headline. Alderton is the last surviving TEACHER not cast member!

Price for me

Noel Howlett was not born in maidstone....it was Bexly kent. You are confused with maidstone other famous howlett.

Derek guyler didn’t play mr price he player mr Potter

CLICKBAIT he's not the last surviving member disrespectful asf.

These so-called short films about british tv shows can be really annoying...why use an American narrator who sounds more like a electronically produced voice?...and the errors abound,some of which are mentioned below me...really irritating.

Don't bother. The title is clickbait, and the clip is rubbish, full of sloppy, lazy mistakes! And no, they aren't all dead. Some of them are still alive and still acting.

Downvoted for misleading title and many, many incorrect facts

Zed cars not zee cars. Grr

Another of these laughable "Facts" lies. John Alderton is NOT the only surviving cast member. Appauling videos.

This is why we fall for this, rubbish.

So many errors

why an american is making a video of a classic tv show is anybodys guess. clearly hasnt done his research. John isnt the only actor thats alive actually

get your facts right please or change your name
