Bewes was born in [[Bingley]] in the [[West Riding of Yorkshire]],&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{Cite web|url=https://search.findmypast.co.uk/results/world-records/england-and-wales-births-1837-2006?firstname=rodney&amp;amp;lastname=bewes|title = Search Results for England &amp;amp; Wales Births 1837-2006}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; to Horace, an Eastern Electricity Board showroom clerk, and Bessie, who was a teacher of children with learning difficulties.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;Barker&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{cite news|last=Barker|first=Dennis|url=https://www.theguardian.com/tv-and-radio/2017/nov/21/rodney-bewes-obituary|title=Rodney Bewes obituary|work=The Guardian|date=21 November 2017|access-date=21 November 2017}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; His family lived for a few years in the [[Crossflatts]] district of [[Bingley]],&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite web|url=https://search.findmypast.co.uk/record?id=TNA%2FR39%2F3616%2F3616A%2F015%2F41 |title=findmypast.co.uk |publisher=Search.findmypast.co.uk |access-date=2019-01-25}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; before they moved to [[Luton]], where he attended Stopsley Secondary School.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;rbooks2005&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{cite web|url=http://www.rbooks.co.uk/author.aspx?id=13007|author=Bewes, Rodney|title=''A Likely Story'', Autobiography|publisher=Random House, 2005|access-date=25 September 2012|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120304233645/http://www.rbooks.co.uk/author.aspx?id=13007|archive-date=4 March 2012|df=dmy-all}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; Because of his early ill-health (he suffered from [[asthma]] and bronchitis), one of the reasons the family moved, his mother tended to keep him off school.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;Timesobit&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; His illness receded, and the family eventually returned to the north.{{when|date=November 2017}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Having seen an advertisement in the ''[[Daily Herald (UK newspaper)|Daily Herald]]'', Bewes auditioned for the title role in ''[[Billy Bunter of Greyfriars School (TV series)|Billy Bunter of Greyfriars School]]'' just before he turned 13, and was in the last two short-listed for the role, losing to [[Gerald Campion]].&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;Timesobit&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; However, he did appear in two early television roles for the BBC, ''Mystery at Mountcliffe Chase''&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;Barker&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; and ''The Pickwick Papers'' (both 1952).&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;BBC211117&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{cite news|url=https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-33181740|title=Obituary: Rodney Bewes|work=BBC News|date=21 November 2017|access-date=21 November 2017}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; At 14, he moved to London to attend [[RADA]]'s preparatory school.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After two years of [[Conscription in the United Kingdom|national service]] in the [[Royal Air Force|RAF]], Bewes attended RADA. He was working nights in hotels, doing the washing-up, to finance his studies at RADA during the day, and hence was frequently to be found asleep in class. He was expelled during his final year.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite web|url=http://www.walesonline.co.uk/showbiz-and-lifestyle/showbiz/2010/05/10/likely-lad-on-the-road-with-one-man-show-91466-26409911/|title=Likely Lad on the road with one-man show|date=9 May 2010|publisher=Walesonline.co.uk|access-date=25 September 2012}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Early career==&lt;br /&gt;
Bewes began appearing in repertory theatre and obtained parts in the television drama series ''[[Dixon of Dock Green]]'' (1962) and ''[[Z-Cars]]'' (1963).&amp;lt;!-- Neither dated in the source. --&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;Johnston&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; He also appeared in the film version of ''[[Billy Liar (film)|Billy Liar]]'' (1963) as Arthur Crabtree, alongside his close friend [[Tom Courtenay]]. The two men shared a flat at the time; Bewes, having seen Courtenay's script, independently and successfully approached the casting director for the part.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;Timesobit&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; The following year his northern working-class background and natural northern accent stood him in good stead, landing him the role of Bob Ferris in ''[[The Likely Lads]]'' (1964–66) after [[Dick Clement]] and [[Ian La Frenais]] had seen him in ''Billy Liar''.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;Barker&amp;quot;/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In ''The Likely Lads'' Ferris was the more ambitious of two Newcastle factory workers, with Terry Collier ([[James Bolam]]) being his lazy and more cynical friend.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;BBC211117&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; The series, at first broadcast on the newly launched [[BBC2]], proved successful both critically and in the ratings when it was shown on the [[BBC1]] and ran for three series.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;Barker&amp;quot;/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite news|url=https://news.sky.com/story/the-likely-lads-actor-rodney-bewes-dies-aged-79-11137444|title=The Likely Lads star Rodney Bewes dies aged 79|publisher=Sky News|date=21 November 2017|access-date=22 November 2017}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; Between his two spells as a 'Likely Lad', Bewes also appeared in ''[[Man in a Suitcase]]'' (1967), ''[[Father, Dear Father]]'' (1968) and as &amp;quot;Mr Rodney&amp;quot; on ''[[Basil Brush|The Basil Brush Show]]'' (1968–69). He starred in his own ITV sitcom ''[[Dear Mother...Love Albert]]'' (later known as ''Albert!'', 1969–72), which he created and co-wrote with [[Derrick Goodwin]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Bewes appeared in the 1969 theatrical production of ''[[She Stoops to Conquer]]'' as Tony Lumpkin.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite book |first=Braham |last=Murray |year=2007 |chapter=''She Stoops to Conquer'': The Tug of War Starts |chapter-url=https://books.google.com/books?id=30DLAwAAQBAJ&amp;amp;q=%22rodney+bewes%22+-wikipedia&amp;amp;pg=PA95 |title=The Worst It Can Be Is a Disaster |page=95 |location=London |publisher=Bloomsbury |isbn=978-0-7136-8490-2 |access-date=31 December 2017 |via=Google Books }}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; He also appeared in the film ''[[Spring and Port Wine]]'' (1970) which starred [[James Mason]], and played the Knave of Hearts in ''[[Alice's Adventures in Wonderland (1972 film)|Alice's Adventures in Wonderland]]'' (1972).&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite news|last=Cockburn|first=Harry|url=https://www.independent.co.uk/arts-entertainment/tv/news/rodney-bewes-dead-likely-lads-death-age-cause-life-career-tv-latest-a8068146.html|title=Rodney Bewes dead: Star of ''The Likely Lads'' dies, aged 79|work=The Independent|date=21 November 2017|access-date=22 November 2017}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; Bewes and Bolam reunited for the sequel that continued the Bob and Terry saga, ''[[Whatever Happened to the Likely Lads?]]'' (1973–74).&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;BBC211117&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; It ran for two series of 13 episodes, followed by a Christmas special in 1974.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite web|url=http://www.britishclassiccomedy.co.uk/whatever-happened-to-the-likely-lads|title=''Whatever Happened To The Likely Lads?''|website=British Classic Comedy|date=22 November 2017|access-date=22 November 2017}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; The original series was adapted for radio (1967–68) as was the sequel (1975), and a cinema spin-off (''[[The Likely Lads (film)|The Likely Lads]]'', 1976) also followed.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite web|url=http://www.britishclassiccomedy.co.uk/the-likely-lads-the-movie-1976|title=The Likely Lads Movie|website=British Classic Comedy|date=28 February 2016|access-date=22 November 2017}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

Bewes' later film roles included ''[[Jabberwocky (film)|Jabberwocky]]'' (1977), ''[[Unidentified Flying Oddball]]'' (1979) and ''[[The Wildcats of St Trinian's]]'' (1980). Although better known for his comedy and light entertainment roles, viewers were given an opportunity to see Bewes' serious acting ability in a made-for-TV film adaptation of [[John Ford (dramatist)|John Ford]]'s 17th century play, ''[['Tis Pity She's a Whore]]'' (1980).&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite book|title=Glued To The Box|first=Clive|last=James|author-link=Clive James|page=62|publisher=Pan Macmillan|year=2017|isbn=978-1-509-83240-8}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; Despite a guest role in the ''[[Doctor Who]]'' serial ''[[Resurrection of the Daleks]]'' in 1984, his television career had largely ended by the mid-1980s.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;BBC211117&amp;quot;/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Later career==&lt;br /&gt;
On the [[West End theatre|West End]] stage, Bewes appeared in the play ''[[Middle-Age Spread]]''&amp;lt;!-- 1977 or 78 --&amp;gt; and ''[[Funny Money]]''&amp;lt;!-- 1994 --&amp;gt;, a farce by [[Ray Cooney]].&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;Timesobit&amp;quot;/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Bewes remained active as a stage performer in the 1990s and later with one-man versions of ''[[Three Men in a Boat]]'' and ''[[Diary of a Nobody]]'', both of which shows he toured extensively in the UK.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Bewes final appearance on television was in 2009 when he played retired bank manager Edward Walton in the ''[[Heartbeat (British TV series)|Heartbeat]]'' episode ''Ties That Bind.''&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{Cite web|url=https://www.imdb.com/title/tt1500010/trivia?ref_=tt_trv_trv|title = &amp;quot;Heartbeat&amp;quot; Ties That Bind (TV Episode 2009) - IMDb| website=[[IMDb]] }}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In July 2013, he was The Marshal ([[Philippe Pétain]]) in the [[Southwark Playhouse]] production of [[Peter Ustinov]]'s ''[[The Moment of Truth (play)|The Moment of Truth]]''.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite news|last=Vale|first=Paul|title=The Moment of Truth|url=http://www.thestage.co.uk/reviews/review.php/38706/the-moment-of-truth|access-date=19 July 2013|newspaper=[[The Stage]]|date=1 July 2013}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; He was back in Edinburgh again in 2015 for an autobiographical show, ''An Audience with Rodney Bewes... Who?''&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite news|url=https://www.theguardian.com/tv-and-radio/2017/nov/21/rodney-bewes-obituary|title=Rodney Bewes Obituary|date=21 November 2017|access-date=28 November 2017|work=The Guardian}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Bewes' autobiography, ''A Likely Story'', was published in September 2005.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;rbooks2005&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; In the autobiography, and on [[Michael Parkinson]]'s [[BBC Radio 2]] show in  2005, he stated that his ''Likely Lads'' co-star [[James Bolam]] had not spoken to him for the past 30 years. It had been assumed for years that Bolam and Bewes were friends off-screen as well as on; a pretence they kept up because their public expected it. However, they had comprehensively fallen out when Bewes indiscreetly related a personal anecdote about Bolam in a 1976 press interview, and had not spoken since. He blamed Bolam's fear of having his privacy invaded, and of being eternally typecast, leading to his refusing to allow repeats of ''The Likely Lads''. The final breach, said Bewes, occurred when, having told an anecdote about the birth of his own triplets, he followed on with a story of how Bolam's wife, Sue, had told him she was pregnant while he was driving, and he almost crashed the car. Bewes repeated this story, thinking it was already public knowledge; but then, on realising he might have crossed a line, phoned Bolam to forewarn him of the article, and got a frosty reaction. &amp;quot;There was this dreadful silence. He put the phone down. I called him back, he didn't answer. He hasn't spoken to me since.&amp;quot;&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite news|last1=McPhee|first1=Rod|title=Likely Lad Rodney Bewes pleaded with former co-star James Bolam to end 40-year rift in last interview before his death|url=https://www.mirror.co.uk/3am/celebrity-news/likely-lad-rodney-bewes-pleaded-11560913|access-date=23 November 2017|publisher=Daily Mirror}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite news|first=Andy|last=McSmith|url=https://www.independent.co.uk/news/media/look-back-in-anger-whatever-happened-to-the-likely-lads-399297.html|title=Look back in anger: Whatever happened to The Likely Lads?|newspaper=[[The Independent]]|date=7 November 2007|access-date=18 April 2013|location=London}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In 2010, Bewes also complained about his former co-star's refusal to allow ''The Likely Lads'' to be repeated on network television (both must give approval), preventing him earning anything from the repeats; &amp;quot;he must be very wealthy; me, I've just got an overdraft and a mortgage&amp;quot;.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite news| url=https://www.independent.co.uk/news/media/tv-radio/the-likely-lads-fall-out-as-bolam-refuses-to-sanction-tv-repeats-1899057.html|newspaper=The Independent|first=Jonathan|last=Owen|title=The Likely Lads Fall Out as Bolam Refuses to Sanction TV Repeats|access-date=14 February 2010|location=London, UK|date=14 February 2010}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; Shortly before he died, in an interview with the ''[[Daily Mirror]]'', Bewes once more lamented the loss of his friendship with Bolam.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;Johnston&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{cite news|last=Johnston|first=Chris|url=https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2017/nov/21/rodney-bewes-star-of-the-likely-lads-dies-at-80|title=Rodney Bewes, star of The Likely Lads, dies at 79|newspaper=The Guardian|date=21 November 2017|access-date=21 November 2017}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; Bolam, however, denied such a rift ever existed, stating after Bewes' death that they &amp;quot;didn't talk for 40 years because of their busy schedules rather than resentment&amp;quot;, and he had &amp;quot;nothing but fond memories&amp;quot; of Bewes.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite news|last=Skopeliti|first=Clea|url=https://www.theguardian.com/tv-and-radio/2017/nov/22/james-bolam-denies-feud-with-likely-lads-co-star-rodney-bewes|title=James Bolam denies feud with Likely Lads co-star Rodney Bewes|work=The Guardian|access-date=23 November 2017}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; Bolam denied he had the ability to block repeats of the TV series.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite web | url=https://www.comedy.co.uk/features/comedy_chronicles/strained-relationships-bewes-and-bolam/?fbclid=IwAR0o7RsDMU8TlJKRMZYpak6Mr-FUSDe3-QmBouiMHww7MOZ2943CL1o-mTQ | title=Strained Relationships: Bewes &amp;amp; Bolam - Comedy Chronicles | date=26 July 2020 }}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
