I don't think there is any connection with RD& Steptoe regarding the name Spooner. However did you know that Wilfred Brambell(Steptoe) played the part of Rigsby (then Rooksby) in the RD stage show for one night.
: I'm a big fan of Steptoe & son,and the
: character Leonard played in Steptoe's The
: Desperate Hours was called Spooner,just
: wondering if that's why the tennant in Rising
: damp had the same name,,,,,
: He was also great in The Leadman Cometh,one
: of his first tv appearances i believe..
