Showing a completely different side to his acting ability, David starred as Sidney Charles "Pop" Larkin in this three-series show.

Set in idyllic rural 1950s Kent, Pop is proud of his large, boisterous family and works hard to provide for them.

His eldest daughter, Mariette, was played by a youthful Catherine Zeta-Jones and launched her acting career into the stratosphere and on to become the Hollywood star we know today.
