    Bodkin Adams was an austere Ulster Protestant with no dependents. He drove a Rolls but said this was bc he needed a totally reliable car for house calls on winter nights. He was a reckless over-prescriber, but that may have reflected compassion or carelessness; nothing in his background or behaviour suggested greed or psychosis- rather bumbling vagueness. Bodkin Adams had a tremendously affable bedside manner, and could tickle up promises of legacies without giving offence. By the time of his arrest he may have been the richest general practitioner in England. He was well liked by all classes in Eastbourne, and even while he was struck off some patients continued to consult him. He was so garrulous that defence counsel would not let him justify his actions at his trial for fear that he would talk himself into a death sentence. They told him he need say only two words: 'Not guilty.' But when asked how he pled, he turned to the judge and said 'I am not guilty, my lord.'

    Si geniusly funny when he jokes, then deeply artistic when he plays seriously. A total genius and artist, same time.

    Thank you for uploading this, I have been wanting to see it again for nearly 40 years. I was a member of the film crew and have very happy memories of the whole job. A lot of it was shot at the old ATV studios in Borehamwood, being the first project after the BBC bought the place, and about a year before Eastenders moved in. All the office interiors, foyer etc are in Neptune House,the studio office block that subsequently became Holby City Hospital some 15 years later. Even from a VHS(?) copy it still looks and sounds good, a credit to my very talented former colleagues of BBC film department at Ealing studios,so many of whom have now sadly passed on. Oh and in addition to a great supporting cast we got to work with Jenny Agutter ❤

    Update! Finished the book a couple of days ago and now watched the TV version. Adapted by Mr Waterhouse from his novel but I would say more 'loosely based' on it really as there are quite lot of plot changes. But in 80 minutes a lot of the book has to cut out! Both the book and the TV programme are great. Again thank you so much for posting. Also thinking of links etc. Geoffrey Bayldon who played a pivotal role here also played the Crowman in 1970s Worzel Gummige, another Waterhouse adaption a few years earlier.

    Thank You! A few weeks ago I noticed that Mr Waterhouse co wrote the screen plays for the late 70s Worzel Gummige TV programmes - who would have thought it! Jon Pertwee as Worzel, the best, but only by a very tiny margin, Mackenzie Crook is also brilliant. It got me thinking about how much I had enjoyed his novels and then I found a second hand copy of Office Life. I am now half way through it, it is still as relevant in many ways today but I suspect most under 65s would not quite 'get it'. Then, out of the blue, I vaguely recalled seeing a TV version of the novel (40 years ago!). I typed 'Office Life Keith Waterhouse' into KZread search not expecting anything, so I can't tell you how excited I was when this came up. But, I shall be patient and finish the book first. Thanks again.
