Trivia David Jason put on weight as Pop Larkin because of all the food in the show; bread and ham, cheese, pickled onions, roast dinners, chocolate, etc. It was meant to show the Larkin family's generous spirit and carefree love of life. There were also fried breakfasts cooked fresh on the set on a little stove.

The set constantly hummed with the smell of frying bacon, which made the crew drool with anticipation. One day on the set, the shooting schedule meant Jason sat down to breakfast five times, which meant it was piled with bacon and eggs.

Jason asked if he could skip the fry-ups, so they switched to kippers, which was just as bad. The extra weight he put on meant he couldn't wear a dinner jacket to that year's BAFTA's that fit the year before. He claimed he looked like Hardy wearing something belonging to Laurel. He had to go on a few months of dieting to regain his former, "sylph-like" weight. Connections Featured in Motormouth: Episode 4. User reviews 24 Review.

Top review. The first two episodes are a fantastic love story based on the first book. This is a reply to Annoymous who considered the film better than the TV Series. Does this person know that the the film relocated the original setting from Kent to the United States of America.

The TV Series was based on the actual books and filmed where they were set. Annonymous has missed the point - the theme of novels is the rejection of control and the concept of Romanticism and the free individual. That is why HE Bates alluded to the idea of Marriette being pregnant at the start of the first story which she is not. Tok Stephen will be Charley Charlton, who falls in love with Mariette. He has previously been in Grantchester.
