In 2000, 21 years after his death, a documentary was broadcast on ITV in tribute, called "The Unforgettable Richard Beckinsale". It featured interviews with his widow, the actress Judy Loe, as well as his father, sister, closest school friend and two daughters. Also contributing were his co-stars, Ronnie Barker of "Porridge" and Don Warrington of "Rising Damp". Barker, remembering Beckinsale's premature death, said: "He was so loved. He hadn't done much but he was so loved that there was a universal sort of grief that went on."
