Among all the crafts involved in the creation of a television show, props is perhaps the most varied and, often, most bizarre. From gleaming glitter ball trophies to giant chocolate eclairs, prop master Bobby Warans has seen and done it all over an illustrious career. In appreciation for his unwavering dedication and exceptional talent for his craft, Warans is the recipient of BAFTA’s Special Award…

obby Warans, who is being honoured with the Special Award this evening, has dressed the sets of television’s biggest hits for more than five decades. Today’s viewing audience can see his props adorn Strictly Come Dancing; older viewers will recall his sterling work on The Two Ronnies and The Young Ones. Warans has no regrets from a lifetime working with props… well, perhaps just one. “If I had a pound for every time I’ve been asked to find that moose’s head from Fawlty Towers, I’d be a very rich man,” he says, recalling the episode where the head fell on hapless waiter Manuel. “We never used to keep props in those days. I wish I’d kept everything – now I would be flogging it all on eBay,” he adds, laughing. Having studied at art college in Kingston, Warans joined the BBC as a clerk in 1968, “to get a foot in the door”, which led to an attachment to the props department. “I took to it like a duck to water – I loved it,” he recalls. Warans’ first jobs were as an assistant on long-running cop series Z-Cars and Dixon of Dock Green – “I sound 110, don’t I?” he says – before he took charge of props on The Carnforth Practice, a short-lived BBC Two drama about a solicitor. A career in serious drama beckoned, until The Morecambe and Wise Christmas Show offered a glimpse of a different future: “The other prop buyers looked down on light entertainment – all they wanted to do was drama. But I did the Christmas special and thought, ‘I’m getting paid to do something I really enjoy – it’s all glitter, glitter, glitter and lots of Hollywood.’” In the 1970s, money was no object. “We didn’t have a budget – shows just cost what they cost. It was a golden time at the BBC,” he notes. One of the prop master’s duties was to choose prizes from John Lewis for The Generation Game, Bob’s Full House and Blankety Blank, then hosted by the “lovely Les Dawson… The Generation Game had a budget of, I think, £2,000, which was a lot of money in those days, to buy 20 prizes a week, including the cuddly toy, of course,” Warans recalls.

He added sitcoms to his roster of shows, including the anarchic The Young Ones and Bottom, in which Rik Mayall and Adrian Edmondson frequently destroyed his props. Mr Blobby, the bulbous pink figure from Noel’s House Party, proved even more destructive: “He was a thing possessed – we had lovely antique tables smashed to smithereens.” Warans left the BBC in the late 1990s, setting up his own business, Bobby’s Props, and remains a busy man in the industry. He has worked on every series of Strictly Come Dancing, one of his favourite shows, and recently provided props for The Royal Variety Performance on ITV and two BBC shows, the sitcom Episodes and the revived Tracey Ullman’s Show (Warans also worked on Three of a Kind in the early 1980s, the series that helped launch Ullman’s television career). It is the lot of the prop master to deal with odd requests, and the shows he has worked on have frequently asked for some strange objects. But some of the weirdest requests didn’t even feature in the shows. For instance,

SEL EC T CR ED I TS Among his impressive credits in the industry, Bobby Warans has worked on the following shows. This is just a small selection: A Bit of Fry and Laurie, Absolutely Fabulous, Alexei Sayle’s Stuff, Ant & Dec’s Saturday Night Takeaway, The Armstrong and Miller Show, Before They Were Famous, Blankety Blank, Bob Monkhouse: A BAFTA Tribute, Bob’s Full House, Bottom, The Carnforth Practice, Episodes, French and Saunders, The Full Wax, The Generation Game, Goodness Gracious Me, Horrible Histories, Judi Dench: A BAFTA Tribute, The Kenny Everett Television Show, The Man from Auntie, The Morecambe and Wise Christmas Show, Mum, Noel’s House Party, Open All Hours, Pop Idol, The Richard Blackwood Show, Roland Rat: The Series, Room 101, The Royal Variety Performance, Siblings, Strictly Come Dancing, Three of a Kind, Tracey Ullman’s Show, The Two Ronnies, Victoria Wood: Live in Your Own Home, The Young Ones

Warans recalls being asked to refit US comedian Joan Rivers’ dressing room entirely in pink when she filmed her 1986 BBC show, Joan Rivers: Can on light entertainment… But We Talk? “We gutted this room, wallpapered and carpeted it, and brought in furniture all in pink. thought, ‘I’m getting paid to do She spent the whole time in a crappy dressing room next door… it was bizarre.” something I really enjoy.’” Strange indeed but nothing compared to the curious incident Warans experienced working with Dame Shirley Bassey. It happened during a visit to a Bond Street jewellers with the songstress to borrow some real gems for a performance of ‘Diamonds are Forever’. Accompanied by the Old English Sheepdog that was a feature of her 1970s shows, “Shirley was playing with the diamonds and the bloody dog swallowed them – they wouldn’t let us out of the shop until he’d done his ‘whatnots’.” A diamond in the ‘ruff!’, so to speak. Most television practitioners have experienced their fair share of ‘whatnot’ shows – among the great and the good – but a quick glance at Warans’ credits reveals just how many genuine classics he’s worked on over the decades. It’s really quite an extraordinary list (see box out), each show made all the better by Warans’ talent for his craft, and why he’s a worthy recipient of one of the Academy’s highest honours. He also knows how to tell a good tale or two…
