ROGER PARKES R.I.P.

TUW is sad to announce that Roger Parkes, who wrote the "Prisoner" episode "A Change of Mind", died in May 2008 after a short illness.

Roger also wrote for the TV series' "Strange Report" and "The Onedin Line" among others, and recently wrote the foreward to Robert Fairclough's second volume of "Prisoner" script books and provided a commentary to his much-respected episode on the recent Network DVD set.

In more recent years he and his wife Tess had been running a B&B in Cookham.

TUW would like to extend its sincerest sympathies to Roger's family and friends.

With thanks to Sam Denham for this news item.
