ROY KINNEAR was your jovial accident-prone street sweeper in one of those 1970s silents in the PLANK/RHUBARB mould. Various mishaps ended with an encounter with The Queen (represented, as always in these things, by a gloved hand protruding from a limousine window), when he was made Queen’s Own Street Orderly and ending up pushing his cart…down the Mall. Do you see?
