Just looked at imbd, she was born in 1932, which means she was mid
40's when in Citizen Smith. That can't be right, Foxy!?

Wikipedia has her YOB as 1929, which given she was 78 makes sense.

One of them must be wrong.

Can anyone remember anything much about Citizen Smith? I remember
being told it was funny, but from what I saw it was pretty
unremarkable.

It was funny. The range of characters was also much wider than in most
sitcoms - and yet every one of them had a different nickname for the
lead character.

From memory:

Wolfie, Ken, Shirley - Wolfie
Mr Johnson - Yeti
Mrs Johnson - Foxy
Tucker - Smiffy
Speed - Smudge
Harry Fenning - Trotsky
Ronnie Lynch - Wally (which turned out to be Wolfie's actual name -
Walter H. (or W.H.) Smith)

Have I missed any? The only other recurring characters were
semi-regulars like Ken's girlfriend and Harry's "foster sons".
