Last three and I can't find the answers.
1. Who played Joe Maplin in Hi De Hi?
2. Which MP's seat is traditionally not contested at General Elections?
3. What is the official name of the Iron Bridge across the River Severn, in Shropshire? (Have an idea of the answer on this one, but not 100% sure)

He was always said to be away 'visiting the other camp at Camber Sands'. It was rumoured that the voice heard on the phone purporting to be Joe Maplin, was in fact, the voice of co-writer Jimmy Perry. As stated above, the part was declined by Bob Momkhouse, and nver re-cast. There were also film versions of Hi-de-Hi, but whether the character of Joe Maplin was represented, I don't know.
