In a spare moment I googled how Jo Swift had broken his arm. No results but did find out that he is the son of Margaret Drabble & Clive Smith who was Mr Bucket in Keeping Up Appearances. Can`t believe I never noticed the resemblance before.

I'd always assumed Margaret Drabble was married to Phil Drabble from One Man and His Dog!Comment

If he's the son of Margaret Drabble and Clive Smith - why is his surname Swift? Even Bucket would make more sense!Comment

The actor's name is Clive Swift according to Wiki, not Clive Smith...
What an amazing family to be a part of - Margaret Drabble, A.S. Byatt, Helen Langdon, Adam Swift.Last edited by SarzWix; 17-08-2012, 01:45 PM.Comment
