    Golf: The 19th Hole

    They are all well-renowned golf course designers, so they all deserve a mention. While it smells of nepotism, it's a look back at a time when your kids could follow you into the family business. Ah, the days when you could have a career in something. There will be Dye Another Day I'm sure....

    Death Anniversary Thread

    Surprisingly not mentioned on this thread before, Mike Pratt died on this date 45 years ago. Of course he was Randall in Randall And Hopkirk (Deceased), but also co-wrote songs including A Handful Of Songs.

    Play School - Play Away - Childrens TV

    IMDB surprisingly light on Mike Amatt who has died: https://www.thesun.co.uk/tv/15552373/ex-bbc-presenter-mike-amatt-mop-and-smiff-dead/ Composer and actor who did the music for some of Jossy's Giants and also Forget Me Not Farm, which he also appeared in, he was also the creator of and performed in the kids' cartoon series Mop And Smiff - which characters were voiced by deadpooling favourites Timothy West and Prunella Scales! The report says he was in Playschool, but that might have been a lot later than my time, as I have no recollection of him.

    Boris Johnson

    Not at all - PM is fair game. Look I don't mind him wearing his Chinese made for buttons England tent shirt at the game - that's ok. But he stands for the UK as PM (allegedly) when he's not at the game - he's a sickening hypocrite that I'm only too happy to point out. I'm not an activist of any sort - if I see him for the cunt he is, I'll say so. Let's hope a heart attack the size of his ego is on it's way. (to get back on topic).

    The obese popularity seeker is now on the BBC. Yes, the Minister for the Union and strong advocate for the United Kingdom shows his true colours by wearing the St George Cross of England on his lapel. All while he pushes the public off a cliff come the 19th.

    Someone is claiming that character actor John Pennington, probably best known as Peter the Civil Servant In Yes Minister but loads of other stuff, died last year: https://www.britmovie.co.uk/forum/cinema/obituaries/101739-john-pennington-rip Maybe one for @Ulitzer95 kind attention (after the England game of course). There's a couple on Find A Will for 2020 who might be him, but they died earlier in the year, Gazette throwing up nothing as is a search for his death.
