Actually they did mention that there was one "friend", but were clearly unaware that she's part of the extended family as well. Indeed, there is that too. Pretty much. The BBC misleadingly stated that she was representing her husband who was unable to attend due to illness - the truth being that he's persona non grata in the RF since he cheated on Penny and pissed off to the Bahamas to shack up with his floozy. Penny threw him out when he came crawling back and his daughter refused to have him give her away when she got married - Prince Charles obliged instead. As Windsor said, he's a waste of space and the BBC shouldn't have been so tactful. Penny is as much a family member as any of the other spouses that were in attendance, probably closer than most.

Lyssarides already on the list.

Apparently an unmentioned name on the forum, so far, Derek Granger, veteran British TV producer of the Golden Age. He's about to turn 100 and the Guardian has an interview with him: https://www.theguardian.com/stage/2021/apr/19/olivier-was-jealous-of-me-tv-drama-pioneer-derek-granger-at-100 Seems fine so far, but that could change quickly.

I'm not outraged, dear colleague. I like rockabilly, too. I'm terrible sorry if I've hurt you with my commentary or it was misinterpreted... I beg your pardon.

And based off this following clipping from the Los Angeles Evening Citizen News, 9 Feb 1946 which suggests a 1932/1931 YOB (rather than 1933) for Jimmy Crane, I am fairly certain that he is James Justin Crane, born 4 Oct 1931 in San Francisco, died 5 Sep 1996, per Social Security Records. The day and month of the IMDB date match as does the birth place, though I can't prove the link conclusively. He is buried in Nevada: https://www.findagrave.com/memorial/102242043/james-justin-crane.

@Octopus of Odstock, one more find before I go to bed. Fred Smith Hugman's: Frederick Edward Smith b. 7 May 1926 Draycott (Derbyshire), EN Ancestry family tree here has him: Frederick Edward Smith b. 27 May 1926 Draycott (Derbyshire), EN d. 6 Dec 2017 Wollongong, New South Wales, Australia The family tree even mentions he was a footballer and links to his Wikipedia page. Notice the slight difference in the DOB (27 vs. 7). Firstly we can rule out a mix up of different people. Looking at the birth index for 1926, there is only one Frederick E Smith born anywhere around there – birth registered 2nd quarter in Shardlow (then the registrar office that included Draycott). So begs the question of whether Hugman's or the family tree carries the erroneous birth date? You may have to order his birth certificate to get the correct birth date.

Xray specs?

I’VE LOST, FUCK.

 Lesothian Roman Catholic cardinal, Sebastian Koto Khoarai, passed away yesterday at the age of 91. 

I think the thread was inevitable on account that she is a lying cunt.

Phantom’s earned the right to his own niche thread, to which he’ll no doubt he’ll often add with grapevine whispers of eminent if obscure greasers like Lew Lewis yesterday. The rockabilly was kinda served in the JLL/LR thread but that got split up when JLL made the fab 50.

Rockabilly falls into rock as a subgenre, surely.

This woman really lives rent-free in all your minds 24/7, doesn’t she?

What about The Queen's next weekly meeting with the Prime Minister. i wonder if she is alone in the room during those, Boris definitely seems the kind of guy to take advantage of a greiving widow and "slip her the biscuit"

Oh, but didn’t you know? It’s Meghan’s fault Philip is dead. And, of course, it was only Meghan that married into the royal family knowing full well they have loads of money. There’s no reason why this thread should’ve been created, or indeed that she should be discussed at all. She just seems to bring out the hatred in obsessive fruitcakes.

No, the fucking thing shouldn't be in anywhere but the bin.

Jim Carey, talentless fucker.How long have I got ??? not long if you keep being as humourless as thatMay I suggest you watch the 1st Ace Ventura. It features a plot with a choking "Yankee" sportsman who goes into hiding, how can that not be your thing. also, n.b, Jim Carrey is actually Canadian so every time he insults someone in one of his films "technically" it's anti-Americanism or something Didn't he give up being a canuk ala Pamela Anderson / Neil Young etc etc ? He took the dollar as far as I remember . And if being funny is all about contorting your melted face for larfs, why has Simon Weston not got an Academy Award ?
