—Ronnie Barker

There is an ivy-covered cottage near the village church in Lissingdown, with an old ram and a couple of angry geese in the yard, where the Jolly Contrarian does most of his writing. Lissingdown also doubles as the fictional settlement where the General Counsel headquarters (GCHQ) are based, and forever under attack, in Hunter Barkley’s Opco Boone stories.
