A Royle Laugh
A comedy sketch starring scouse TV
comedy legend Ricky Tomlinson and the
new Innolux PVCu bi-folding door has been
released by fabricator Warwick North West.
»»The sketch features Ricky’s
most famous character, slob Jim Royle
sitting in his armchair and calling out for son
Anthony and son-in-law Dave to come and
open the bi-fold door in the lounge.
When Jim gets no response, he angrily
jumps up and proceeds to open the door
himself. Jim’s frustration soon turns to delight
when he realises the bi-fold is easier to
operate than he first anticipated – and if his
closing comment is anything to go by, it’s fair
to say he’s glad he replaced his French door
with a bi-fold.
You can watch the sketch by visiting
Warwick’s Youtube account https://www.

Warwick director Greg Johnson
commented: “When we launched the video
we sent out an e-shot with a link to our
Youtube account and we were flooded with
positive feedback. It was a real pleasure to
work with Ricky and we’re glad the sketch has
given a good laugh to many in the industry.
The sketch is funny but it has a serious
message – our Innolux bi-folds are premium
quality and easier to operate than you might
think.”

Exhibition stands
attract homebuilders
and renovators
»»The Roof Assured by Sarnafil
team enjoyed a successful Homebuilding
& Renovating Show at the Harrogate
International Centre where 10,000 visitors
came through the doors to source new
products, get expert advice and browse the
aisles.
This was the fourth Homebuilding &
Renovating Show for Roof Assured in 2015
and will continue to be part of its events
schedule going into this year.
Charles Pierce, Head of Roof Assured, said:
“The shows generate a high level of interest with
one of our target audiences – the homebuilder
and renovator. They generate excellent enquiries
from people with real projects on the go and
create genuine business enquiries for our
network of registered installers.”
Leads generated at the show were a mix of
current, future and planning stage enquiries
about flat roof solutions.
Bob Newall, Business Development
Manager, Roof Assured by Sarnafil, said:
“Visitors to the stand have heard about the
Sarnafil membrane from their architects and
come to learn more about the brand and
the membrane for themselves. For others,
the single ply membrane is
still a relatively unknown
technology and they are
all ears to hear about
the brand and see an
installation demo.
They are particularly
interested to hear
about the company’s
Swiss heritage and
the fact that some of
its earliest roofs are now
over 50 years old.”
