This is indeed true, the Rising Damp poster was clearly referring to a real MP, and he took an injunction out. The show has since got round it by airbrushing out the name!
: Hi, all, thanks for a great site! In the
: episode Stand Up and Be Counted, the poster
: advertisng the Labour candidate seems to be
: 'doctored' on screen. I once read that the
: name of 'Pender' was on the posterand as
: there was a real MP of that name at that time
: that is why it was doctored that way (As
: there may have been resentment at being mixed
: up with the 'gay' candidate in the espisode)
: Can anyone clarify that for me - thanks. Marc
