Garnett appeared in an Aerogard commercial with Max Walker in 1977[3] where he was known for the line "Avagoodweekend Mr Walker".[4] Alan Marshall personally chose Garnett to play him in I Can Jump Puddles in part because of that ad.[5] He played Marshall as a child in the series with Lewis Fitz-Gerald later playing him as an adult.[6][7]
