Ronnie Barker's paedophile son will share more than £500,000 this year in royalties, according to new accounts.
Adam Barker, who served 13 weeks in prison after admitting to making indecent images of children in 2012, is an equal shareholder in Handles for Forks Ltd, which manages and distributes his father's work.
The company made £501,319 profit in the year to last June, which will be split with his sister Charlotte, 53, and brother Laurence, 46.
It also has assets of nearly £1.2million, the Daily Mirror reported.
The previous year the company made around £300,000 and Barker would have similarly received a one-third share.
The 47-year-old was first arrested in 2003 during a dawn raid on his house. 1,675 images and videos depicting child pornography were discovered by officers.
He went on the run for eight years - during which time his mother and father both died - and was reportedly living in Hungary.
At the time he left a note for his parents, which read: ‘Dear Mummy and Daddy. Some time ago the police came to my house looking for images of under-age children on my computer. I was arrested.
‘I must apologise for being foolish and thank you for being great parents. Rather than wait and find out what will happen, I will go away. You must understand that I won’t be able to contact you for quite some time.’
The whereabouts of the part-time actor, who appeared in Bond film Tomorrow Never Dies, remained a mystery until he handed himself in to a police station in west London.
He was jailed at lsleworth Crown Court in October 2012 for 12 months after admitting 20 counts of making indecent images of children, 17 of which were of pre-teen boys.
Judge Rosa Dean, sentencing at the time, told him: ‘Your offences contributed to the degradation and continued abuse of children.’
But he served only 12 weeks because he had already spent three months on remand.
