Harry Driver〔John Oliver ("Driver, Harry (1931-1973) and Powell, Vince (1928-2009)" ), BFI Screenonline, 2010〕 (13 May 1931 – 25 November 1973) was a British television scriptwriter, partnering with Vince Powell on many popular TV shows, including Coronation Street, Adam Adamant Lives!, Never Mind The Quality Feel The Width, Love Thy Neighbour and Nearest and Dearest. Harry Driver died at the age of 42 on 25 November 1973. According to the BFI Screenonline, "in December 1955 Driver was struck down with polio. He would spend the next 18 months in hospital (12 of them in an iron lung), and, unable to move his arms and legs, the rest of his life in a wheelchair. Despite, or indeed because of, his illness, Driver began to write stories and scripts, initially when in the iron lung (via dictation) and then on a typewriter, apparently with a knitting needle clenched between his teeth. Submitting scripts to Manchester-based Granada Television, he eventually had one accepted, receiving his first television credit not for a comedy, but for the 24 March 1960 episode of Skyport (ITV, 1959-60), an airport-set drama series. Powell, meanwhile, had also turned his hand to writing and had begun to collaborate with Driver during the evenings (he was a tailor by trade during the day)." ==References==
