Andrew Sachs has apparently patched things up with his granddaughter Georgina Baillie thanks to the intervention of Baillie's new boyfriend Adam Ant.
Sachs is said to have fallen out with Baillie after the infamous Manuelgate scandal, in which Russell Brand and Jonathan Ross left a series of messages on Sachs's answering machine revealing that Brand had slept with Baillie.
However, '80s popstar Ant - who has been dating Baillie for just over a month - wrote a letter to the former Fawlty Towers actor pleading with him to see his granddaughter again, and Sachs has now reportedly agreed to a meeting.
A source told The Mirror: "Georgina is elated her grandfather wants to see her again and hopes they can begin to put the past behind them and move on.
"It's all down to Adam. He was desperate to help and wrote a letter off his own back. He has a way with words. It was very personal and explained how much Georgina loved him and was sorry for any upset she had caused."
Baillie is also apparently planning to invite her grandfather to one of Ant's future gigs, which will see her perform with the 'Prince Charming' singer.
Last year, Baillie told DS that she still cannot stand the sight of Brand.

Actress Stephanie Beacham has told of her terror after doctors revealed her skin cancer has returned.
The Dynasty star had a brush with the disease in 2008 but assumed she was back to full health after a course of cryotherapy to freeze and remove the growth on her nose.
But she was plunged into "horror" last month when medics revealed the cancerous cells have returned. The star is currently undergoing photodynamic therapy for basal cell carcinoma in a bid to kill off the illness.
Beacham tells Hello! magazine, "The news that it had returned gave me such a fright. The first time I was told I had skin cancer, I can still remember the horror I felt, so to be told it had come back was terrifying.
"I was also terribly disappointed as I thought I was clear and that was the end of it. I now know otherwise and this has served as a warning... I didn't want cryotherapy again and surgery would have involved cutting away a chunk of skin from my nose, leaving me with a permanent scar.
"The treatment took less than half an hour and didn't involve a scalpel... It was slightly uncomfortable, but not painful. I have one more treatment next month to make sure all the cancerous cells are cleared."
And the actress admits she's determined to help other sufferers of the disease: "This second scare has proved a very valuable lesson. But skin cancer is nothing to be ashamed of and if my story makes more people aware of the dangers and the treatments available then good has come of this."
:( Hope she makes a full recovery

GEORGE MICHAEL's partner KENNY GOSS has walked out on him after 15 years, The Sun can reveal.
Pals said Texan businessman Kenny had finally had enough of the wayward pop star's lifestyle.
Worried friends of the former Wham! singer – whose hits include Wake Me Up Before You Go-Go – had been warning him he risked losing Kenny.
But problems with cannabis, such as last year's drug-driving conviction, forced them apart.
A source close to the couple said: "The writing has been on the wall for some time. There are only so many second chances Kenny was prepared to give.
"He's been loyal to George from day one, but that hasn't always been reciprocated."
They added: "Kenny runs an incredibly successful gallery. With Kenny in the US, they spend so much time apart – and that's got worse over the last couple of years.
"It's really sad, but hopefully this could be the wake-up call George needs."
Kenny, 51, was in court in September when George was sentenced to eight weeks for crashing into a branch of Snappy Snaps near his North London home.
It was his second drug-driving conviction. In 2007 he was found slumped at the wheel of the same vehicle, and was ordered to do community service.
George, 47, left jail in October vowing to mend his ways. He admitted to CHRIS EVANS on Radio 2 that he had become "a poster boy for cannabis".
He said: "I felt like I had a bill to pay. I went to prison, I paid my bill."
His new single, a cover of NEW ORDER's True Faith, is released next week for Comic Relief.

Charlie Sheen has called the executives of Two and a Half Men "deplorable" for the way they handled his dismissal.
The actor was fired from the CBS sitcom on Monday following a letter to his lawyer from Warner Bros, who produce the show.
Sheen has now claimed that he initially found out about his sacking via text message, slamming the programme's bosses for their handling of the situation.
He told Access Hollywood: "These guys are such yellow cockroaches that they didn't even have the decency to call me.
"I put five [billion] in their cheap suit pockets and another half a [billion] in what's-his-cheese's pockets and this is the… respect I get? It's just deplorable and they should be ashamed of themselves.
"They exercised such a cheap move and [this is] so silly and so transparent and… it's so juvenile. It is the work of infants. It is the work of silly infants."
Sheen went on to confirm that he intends to pursue legal action against the show's executives but stressed that it is not the most important thing in his life.
He added: "I guess if you can't process a guy, or realise his value, you must terminate him. That's real high-brow thinking, really evolved thinking. I don't know. It is what it is. I'm more worried about my children right now than any of this nonsense."

Zara Phillips and rugby player Mike Tindall are to be married in Edinburgh on 30 July, Buckingham Palace has said.
The wedding will take place at the Canongate Kirk on the Royal Mile.
The couple announced their engagement in December, just weeks after Prince William and Kate Middleton said they planned to marry on 29 April.
The Queen's oldest granddaughter, Miss Phillips, 29, and Mr Tindall, 32, met during England's Rugby World Cup-winning campaign in Australia in 2003.
Miss Phillips, who is not a working member of the royal family but is 12th in line to the throne, was educated at Gordonstoun boarding school in Morayshire.
She has achieved sporting success in her own right, winning individual gold in three-day eventing at the World Equestrian Games in Germany in 2006.
The title helped her become BBC Sports Personality of the Year later that year, following in the footsteps of her mother, Princess Anne, who won the award in 1971.
Private event
The service at the Canongate Kirk will be followed by a reception at the Palace of Holyroodhouse Miss Phillips has missed two Olympic Games after her horse, Toytown, suffered injuries, but is hoping to compete in the London 2012 Games.
Mr Tindall currently plays for and captains Gloucester, and remains in the England team - which he has also skippered during this year's Six Nations championship.
Iain Balshaw, who was also part of England's victorious World Cup squad, is reported to be Tindall's best man.
Palace sources say the wedding will be private, with costs covered by the families. Royal officials said the couple will hold their reception at the Palace of Holyroodhouse in Edinburgh, the Queen's official home in Scotland.
Canongate Kirk, which serves a Church of Scotland congregation, was completed in 1691.
It is the parish church of Edinburgh Castle and where the Queen worships when at residence at Holyroodhouse.

Ant McPartlin has been the victim of an alleged unprovoked attack in his local pub.
The television presenter – and one half of duo Ant and Dec - was watching a Champions League football game on Tuesday when he was punched in the face.
His attacker, thought to be aged around 18, had apparently been directing jibes at Ant throughout the evening.
"Ant didn't react and this bloke launched himself at him and punched him in the face," a source told The Sun.
"It was all totally unprovoked."
A spokesman for Ant confirmed the ITV star had been hit but wouldn't be taking the matter further.
Justin Timberlake, 30, and Jessica Biel, 29, have ended their relationship after four years of dating. Reps for the former couple issued this joint statement today: “Addressing the media speculation regarding Jessica Biel and Justin Timberlake’s relationship, we are confirming that they mutually have decided to part ways. The two remain friends and continue to hold the highest level of love and respect for each other.”
The man who punched Ant McPartlin in the face has said that he is "not sorry" for his actions.
Speaking to the Sun, attacker Ross Hamilton said that he was just "having a joke".
Describing Tuesday's incident, Hamilton said: "I put my arm round Ant and said, 'Where's your girlfriend?'
"I thought he must be used to that. He didn't think it was funny so I pinched his cheek and said, 'You're cute when you get angry.' He didn't like that, then I just gave him a little slap."
Hamilton said that the pair "exchanged verbals" as McPartlin left, adding: "I'm not sorry. He deserved it."
The attack happened while McPartlin was at a pub in Chiswick watching the Arsenal versus Barcelona football match.
The presenter reportedly said that he was "fine" yesterday while filming for Push The Button.
Former Pop Idol contestant and stage star Darius Campbell has secretly tied the knot to a Hollywood star in a hush-hush ceremony.
The singer - who found fame when he boastfully scolded talent show bosses for axing him - has found love with Natasha Henstridge, whose films include sci-fi hit Species.
He told Hello! magazine: "No-one knew we were there and that sense of it just being for us was very exciting - it felt a little bit naughty and secretive."
The couple were accompanied by only Henstridge's sons Tristan, 12 and Asher, nine, as they married at the San Ysidro Ranch in Santa Barbara, California. The couple's wedding photos are published by the magazine.
"It was a very hard secret to keep," said the 36-year-old actress, who wore a short white Monique Lhullier dress. "It was really spontaneous."
Campbell was known as Darius Danesh when he made his first bid for TV fame in ITV show Popstars. After he failed to make it into the line-up of Hear'Say, who were assembled by the show, he then went on to take part in the first Pop Idol, which was won by Will Young. He has since become a stage star and moved to the US.
The couple - who became engaged in 2007, toyed with marrying in Scottish castle, or in Henstridge's native Canada but they went for the low-key approach at the US ranch.
"It's where the Kennedys honeymooned, and where Vivien Leigh and Sir Laurence Olivier said their vows, so it has a real sense of history," said Campbell.
They met seven years ago on a pedestrian crossing in LA. They briefly split last year but went on to rekindle their relationship.
"The universe conspired and I saw a lot of things much more clearly," Henstridge said. And Campbell added: "I've always known the grass is not greener. Wanting to spend your life with someone is a realisation that can take seven years or happens instantly."

The Spice Girl already has two daughters, Phoenix, 12, and Angel Irish, 3, while Belafonte has one child from a previous marriage.
"It was planned, obviously," she told Hello magazine. "When you're 35 years old, you have to do your check-ups beforehand. So I'd done all the precautions around Christmas time, then we started trying."
She continued: "We both really wanted things to happen. The power of wanting a baby, I think, can sometimes just work for your advantage. I didn't think that I would get pregnant that quickly. Usually it takes at least a month or two.
"We're really excited. We wouldn't have planned and waited for four years to have a baby if we weren't really excited about it and ready for it - even though you can never really be truly ready."
However, the singer - real name Melanie Brown - admitted that she does not know if she will find out the sex of the baby.
"I haven't fully decided if I want to know or not," she said. "I'm over the first trimester, so I'm past the shady three months and on to safe territory. The first three months, I was pretty sick and tired, to be honest, which I've never been before."
Mel B is the third Spice Girl to confirm pregnancy this year, with both Victoria Beckham and Emma Bunton expecting new arrivals.

Do these celebs not understand giving these children stupid names. Can cause trouble when going to school. I do feel sorry for them having to carry these names for the rest of there lives. Zowie Bowie changed his in later live.

MUM-TO-BE Victoria Beckham wants to call her unborn baby girl Luna.
Fashionista Victoria Beckham has a shortlist of names and loves the name, which is Spanish for “moon”.
Bookies are now convinced it is the only viable moniker on the table.
Paddy Power yesterday made Luna the firm favourite, giving odds of just 3-1.
A survey of British parents by children’s retailing website BabyChild yesterday also backed Luna as the preferred choice. It was miles ahead of other names, including Angel, London, Princess and Paris.
Victoria, 36, was about to give the name Luna to third son Cruz before she knew the sex of the baby.
She picked it in 2004, months before giving birth, and favoured a girl’s name because she was so desperate for a little daughter. At the time, she said: “I love the word Luna. I know it’s a girl’s name. So maybe for the next baby.”
David’s England pal Frank Lampard, 32, and his ex Elen Rivas, 36, gave the name to their eldest daughter, who was born a few months after Cruz.
The Beckhams are no strangers to unusual names. The pair called their first son Brooklyn after the area where he was conceived in New York.
And they named their next son Romeo because: “It’s just a name we love.”
Their use of Spanish words is also apparent in youngest son Cruz’s name.
It is Spanish for “cross” and pronounced like the surname of pal Tom Cruise, 48.
Dad-to-be David, 35, said Brooklyn, 12, Romeo, eight, and Cruz, six, are looking forward to meeting their baby sister.
He said: “Having a girl is something we obviously hoped for.
“But when you have a baby, the biggest concern is it’s healthy and everything’s good with the mum.
“We’re very excited. It’s an exciting time for the family.”
