I've only just seen the disagreement over sticking 'Happy Birthday to..' people in threads where Toastie thinks they shouldn't go and, personally, I agree with her. So, as noble as it is for GC to recognise that some people are still alive out there to have birthdays to celebrate, maybe they can all be put in here. This should satisfy all, everybody and nobody in equal measure. Gooseberry, this is your very own place on here. Enjoy.

Fucking hell, it's Christmas. Can't you hate the pair of them?

Mods, feel free to smack my arse if there is already a thread on the subject. Presenters. Whatever happened to Michael Aspel? What about Peter Marshall, presenter of Miss World and continuity announcer for ( IIRC) Thames Television in the 1970s? What happened the the old fashioned presenter, eh? Answers on a Post Card...................

My nephew wanted a train set for Christmas, but the shop didn't have any, so I've sent him a replacement bus service.

I remember him, he was on TV quite a lot, back in the day. I'm sure he was done for or accused of assaulting somebody, many moons ago. Has to be said that, as unfunny as he was, he would have done the social clubs, as did most comics then, and would have grafted his way on to TV as opposed to grifting it like too many comics/ celebs nowadays. He was from a different era, variety shows on TV were full of piss poor acts and, probably, that, in no small way, could have had more to do with them having to seriously tone down their acts for the screen. It's a different world now, or summat.

Ok chums, this is the thread where you can exclaim "Its cold!!" or "Ive got to take Tibby to the vets to be de bollocked" (or summat). Basically, you can put anything into here that doesnt neccessarily fit or belong in other threads. It should keep the Stasi from complaining about posts meandering off topic/post quality blah f'ucking blah. Anyway, as a first post, I ponder this question. Lesbians. Have they got life licked?

Fuck me, she read your posts too.....

Maybe its been done, maybe the mods can merge?? Tempus gave us the Brian Cant thread and, at the mo, that utter legend ( another one that shall not appear on ANY Death List ) Derek Griffiths is appearing on Corrie. He was also on a recent Silent Witness episode and, to be fair, he is looking well good. Any news to report on any other Playschool/Playaway stalwarts??

So, as is normally the case when something like this breaks, women are now coming forwards, en masse, to describe their experiences with Horrible Harvey. Anyway, never mind all of that, what about the ones that did touch it or 'gave it a kiss' for that career launching part, that part that kept them in work or at the top? Working on the obvious theory that old Harvey had been at it for decades its improbable that he only ever got a female a part in a movie just because she was hugely talented. So, as we have some smart people out there, perhaps we can have a list of his films ( or stuff that was stamped with his 'genius' ) listed with all female leads/prominent females/females getting their break. All for us to speculate and not accuse, state as fact or anything else that will get us hung, obviously.

Has anybody posted about James Whales cancer diagnosis? Ok, you have....

Ok, shit title and description, however, all will become clear. I had a thought today, as I negotiated a loft that was so full of dead mice and rat poison I thought I had stumbled into somesort of rodent Afghanistan.... How many celebs, off the top of your head, can you name who have all met their end in a Hotel room? My first thoughts were "Mama" Cass Elliot in 1974 and Janis Joplin in 1970. The floor is yours.....

Saw a Scouse tribute band last night. Took That.

Just thought I'd nip over to check on the old lady over the road, and fair play to her, at 96, she had all the Halloween decorations up, cobwebs and insects in the windows and a skeleton on the couch. She always makes a big effort, but there was no answer. I'll pop back next year.

Why can't we just substitute the word ' influencer' to grifter??

It has to be said that ' Burnside' covered that response quite deliciously.

Yeah, all over your chest.

Not THAT Barry, you hairy old flange!

Bait? Having a different opinion and being constructively critical of other opinions is ' bait', is it? Grow up.

May be an idea to offer all of the unsold books of that cunt to pensioners to burn on a fire this winter, to keep warm.

Full of assumptions as well as absolute bollocks, aren't you.

Wasn't Barry Evans murdered by a passenger he was carrying in the back of his Taxi ( the work had dried up for him by then) and that person was put away for it? You really are older than your years, Handy!

Yeah, like that ' far right, racist' party, Reform, got more votes than the Lib Dems and, the Tories, because they are a bit thick, are thinking that a more right wing leader might get all of those ex Tory & Labour voters away from Reform and back to them at the next election. How silly of them, eh!

In all brutal honesty, how, exactly, will we fucking know if his brain is deteriorating? Know wot I meen, 'arry?

If only she was a transgender one legged hermaphrodite with pronouns at the end of their name, RTD would be all over her like a tramp on a sandwich, eh!
