Ronald William George Barker OBE, born on 25 September 1929, was an English actor, comedian, and writer. He became a household name through his roles in beloved British comedy series such as “Porridge”, “Open All Hours”, and “The Two Ronnies”.
Barker’s journey in entertainment began in Oxford amateur dramatics while working as a bank clerk. He soon discovered his aptitude for comic roles and moved into repertory theatre.
His television breakthrough came with the satirical sketch series “The Frost Report” in 1966. This led to his iconic partnership with Ronnie Corbett in “The Two Ronnies”, which ran from 1971 to 1987.
Barker’s versatility shone through his various characters. He portrayed the cunning prisoner Norman Stanley Fletcher in “Porridge” and the stammering shopkeeper Arkwright in “Open All Hours”.
Despite his extrovert performances, Barker was known to be a quiet, retiring individual in his personal life. He preferred spending time with family over mingling with celebrities.
“All I Ever Wrote” is a testament to Barker’s prolific writing career. He often wrote under pseudonyms, including “Gerald Wiley”, to avoid prejudgment of his work.
