He played the recurring character Mr. (Sidney) Bluett in Dad's Army from 1969 to 1977, but it was as Young Mr. Grace, the ancient, amiably callous owner of Grace Brothers department store in British sitcom Are You Being Served? that he achieved his greatest fame. His last appearance in Are You Being Served aired some three months after his death, having been filmed earlier in the year.
