Timeline
Awarded honorory Doctor of Letters from St Andrews University, laureation by Ian Wright, Clerk to the Court, Senate and General Council (22/6/2000).
Rikki Fulton was born on April 15, 1924 in Glasgow, Scotland as Robert Kerr Fulton.
He was serving on the HMS Ibis when it was topedoed in the Mediterranean in 1942. She sank with her captain and over two-thirds of her crew but Fulton was rescued after five hours in the water.
His first professional engagement with the BBC was for a radio schools programme, 'The Gowrie Conspiracy', on 15th Jan 1947. However his first major acting role on Radio Scotland was 'The McFlannels', playing the young minister the Rev David McCrepe.
His second wife, Kate Matheson, had been married to Graham Roberts, famously the voice of "George Barford" in the long running BBC radio series, "The Archers". They were married in 1959 and divorced in 1969.
I just watched '633 Squadron' filmed in England 1963. I just noticed in the control room at the airfield Rikki Fulton sitting in at desk with headphones, no lines just as an extra. The main Glaswegian in the movie is Angus Lennie; who I'm sure new one another as they were both very popular on the Glasgow stage.
One of his most famous characters was the Rev I.M. Jolly, a well meaning but dour minister. This character was not based on any one minister but rather a collection of ministers who are full of doom and gloom. The character first surfaced in 1978 on the programme 'Scotch & Wry', it became the most popular of the Last Call characters and it was such that Hogmanay TV in Scotland was not complete without the annual message of 'hope' from the Rev IM Jolly. The very last 'Last Call' was in 1999.
He was an actor and writer, known for Gorky Park (1983), The Adventures of Francie and Josie (1962) and Local Hero (1983). He was married to Kate Matheson and Ethel Scott.
Presidents Award for Most Notable Contribution to Broadcasting 1987 (TRICS)
He was awarded the OBE (Officer of the Order of the British Empire) in the 1991 Queen's Birthday Honours List for his services to entertainment.
Lifetime Achievement Award 1993 by Bafta Scotland, UK
Awarded Honorory Doctor of Letters by University of Strathclyde, 1994
Awarded Honorory Doctor of Arts by University of Abertay, Dundee, 1995
Suffered from Alzheimer's disease in later life, first noticed signs in 1998, when he had trouble remembering lines during the recording of a Rab C. Nesbitt episode, he had previously been well known for remembering lines, earning the nickname within his profession - 'One Take Fulton'. His battle with Alzheimer's became public in July 2002, and he later took part in a TV documentary highlighting the illness.
