Harry Corbett facts

While investigating facts about Harry Corbett, I found out little known, but curios details like:

Harold Wilson wished for actor Harry H. Corbett to receive an OBE. However, his middle initial was lost in the process and the award instead went to Sooty puppeteer Harry Corbett. Harry H. Corbett had previously added the initial to avoid confusion with the puppeteer.

The original Harry Ramsdens fish restaurant used to have Harry Corbett (the inventor of childrens puppets "Sooty and Sweep") play piano to entertain the diners.

In my opinion, it is useful to put together a list of the most interesting details from trusted sources that I've come across. Here are 2 of the best facts about Harry Corbett I managed to collect.
