Les's bandages - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

This is my first time posting on this particular board so my question has probably been asked before. Why does Les always have a bandage on in a different spot every episode?

As I recall, Richard Sanders had an accident before filming the first episode which necessitated him wearing a bandage. It was decided that this would be a good gimmick for Les's character, and thusly he'd have a bandage somewhere on his person throughout the series.

^ Yes, I remember reading that someplace a long time ago.

Lester is correct.

LOL My mom and I thought it might be some wierd contest so we wrote in to the network about his bandaids. We were hoping to win something!

Yah, it was just supposed to be something (even more) quirky about Les. (Along with his yellow tape for office walls).

I heard somewhere too that Richard Sanders theorized that Les got the bandage from fighting with his dog.

BTW, Monika, I love your new avatar.
