Press clippings
Chairman Alf's Thoughts On The Media is, of course, Johnny Speight's great comic creation of the Sixties now on a life support system. In The Biggest Aspidistra In The World, Peter Black's biography of the BBC, he calls Alf immortal. Alas, alas. Paradoxically if Alf had been killed off, he would be immortal.
