==Character Biography==
George Rowland Roper was born in the early 1930s, to parents working-class parents Jack and Mary Roper. His father was constantly unemployed and his mother is said to have done 'a lot of shoplifting'. He had six siblings: Bill, Gloria, Betty, Fred, Bill II (named after the first one) and Charlie, as revealed in George and Mildred. His middle name - Leslie - is revealed in Man About The House. During World War II, he got a job as a bus conductor, and married childhood sweetheart Mildred Tremble. He and Mildred had no children, despite Mildred desperately wanting some. George became 'caretaker' at a house in London, and let out the top flats to Robin Tripp (Richard O'Sullivan), Chrissy Plummer (Paula Wilcox) and Jo (Sally Thomsett). When the council wanted to knock down their house to make room for a flyover, the Roper's moved to 46 Peacock Crescent, where their neighbour's became the Fourmile family: Jeffrey (Norman Eshley) Ann (Sheila Fearn), Tristram (Nicholas Bond-Owen) and later, Tarquin (Simon Lloyd).
George is shown throughout Man About the House and early episodes of George and Mildred, George is shown to be despite his laziness and constant moaning, that he is working-class and proud of it. In the pilot episode of George and Mildred, George becomes offended when Jeffrey Fourmile is rude about the working classes, and says 'Well, we'll put the coal in the bath, and we'll put the pigeons in the shed with the ferrets!'. When Mildred frequently tries to better the couple with society, George always brings down her ideas, as he doesn't want to become 'a toffee-nosed twit like him next door'. He likes brown ale and unusual sandwiches, such as jam and crisps.
