Billy Bunter on Television

Home Page Friars Club Book Index Magnet Index Gem Index Frank Richards Contents Friars' Lives
Popular in its day (although not always with Frank Richards' approval) Bunter appeared on television over several years. Gerald Campion, at the time, came to hate the rôle he had made his own. Happily, before his death in 2002, he became reconciled with this, his most famous part.

The data, at present incomplete, are taken from The Friars’ Database, with acknowledgements to the late Bill Lofts.
