I have heard that Ronnie Barker did reacive a letter from a family of stutters saying they didn’t mind it very much. But I’ve just found a person from the British Stutterers Association who DID take offence to Barker’s portrayal of the stutter, so much so that he makes the claim that the show’s laugh track was done using editing (what does he think it is? An American comedy!) and he then rather sinisterly added that if he ever caught a glimpse of the programme he would break out in a sweat.
