Another person couldn’t believe Jennifer’s in her 50s, saying: ‘She looks like she hasn’t aged at all.’

While another person said: ‘Would be hilarious to see Aniston play the role in exactly the same way as Richard Wilson, same supporting cast, same storyline and everything!’

Over six seasons, Victor portrayed an annoyed old man with day-to-day life becoming a struggle.

The hilarious character was forced into early retirement from his job as a security guard. 

Richard, who recently turned 86, initially turned the part down as at 53, he felt he was too young to play the grumpy character. 

One Foot In The Grave ran for a decade before it ended in 2000, with grouchy Victor being killed off in a hit-and-run accident.
