Toast

I went to one of their gigs last year OK then. This is a late 70s song. Written by an artist who didn't have a hit with it himself and didn't include it on his next album. International hit for a girl group that reached no. 1 in several countries, but only a Top 40 spot in the UK.

King In A Catholic Style by China Crisis

I'm quite partial to a Tunnock's Teacake. Takes me right back to my primary school tuck shop.

Pmsl at them referring to him as "the dad of four". The lengths these hacks go to in order to avoid using actual names in articles. Any more suggestions?

That may change, as streaming of TV programmes has introduced us to many Scandinavian actors. Off the top of my head, Mads Mikkelsen, Nikolai Coster Waldau, Kim Bodnia .....

Not just a title, Philip's paternal line is Danish. His grandfather was a Danish prince born in Copenhagen.

I think this is "If I Could (El Condor Pasa)", which was on Simon & Garfunkel's Bridge Over Troubled Water album. A hit here for Julie Felix. Surprised to see that she only had two hits. She always seemed to be on the telly when I was a kid. I haven't got a new question ready, so if anyone has something up their sleeve feel free to post it while I muse.

I got this email yesterday: Please do not book a GP appointment or attend your GP Practice if you’ve visited or travelled through mainland China, Hong Kong, Japan, Macau, Malaysia, Republic of Korea, Singapore, Taiwan, or Thailand and have symptoms of cough, fever or shortness of breath within 2 weeks of returning, or if you have symptoms of cough, fever or shortness of breath after being in contact with someone with a confirmed case of coronavirus. Please call NHS 111 instead etc

Stereophonics? No idea about the song though, I don't do gaming.

Mrs Warboys Doreen Mantle duly sat for her portrait. She seemed a little frail and needed assistance to walk across the studio, but she explained that her eyesight has deteriorated to the point where she can only see shapes and colours so that may be the main reason she needed help. Otherwise she said she was very well, and she is certainly still in possession of all her marbles.

Brilliant!

That so needs to go in the Looky-Likey thread!

I just stumbled upon this post on Digital Spy which has a fairly recent photo of them https://forums.digitalspy.com/discussion/comment/95370281#Comment_95370281 which I traced back to this page https://talkaboutpopmusic.com/2018/06/02/where-are-they-now-the-reynolds-girls/ which alas, also asks Where Are They Now?

I couldn't say, I'm not really aware of any resemblance to anyone well-known. Can't recall anyone mentioning such. Sorry to be so dull

Just scroll up a little.

Pass the sick bag. I am disgusted at all the fawning over PS. He isn't "brave". It takes a coward to cheat, betray and lie to another person (for nearly 30 years!) in order to use them as a smokescreen. To those who claim that he would have been unemployable in his role as a family-friendly celebrity ..... there's somebody else pictured near here who's got away with staying in the closet for years without ruining a woman's life.

So correct me if this is wrong. Several people are one hit away from the win. Biblio & Time each need a boxer. Yorkshire Banker and Death Impends each need a unique pick. Spade also only needs one more unique pick, but can also win with any of his Head of State picks.

Feel free to question the committee. Good luck with that. Anyway, why are you so keen to have a separate thread for Roberta McCain? There's not much to say about her.

And I'm pointing out that as we don't make the decisions, we can't explain them. The situation is: The committee put Gates senior on the list, therefore he automatically gets a thread. He wouldn't have a thread if he wasn't on the list. The general feeling among most members is that he isn't independently famous enough to warrant being on the list, and neither is Roberta McCain.

We don't get to decide who's on the list.

I regret I am not nearly as well preserved as Miss Collins

I wouldn't say you were very close there although I do happen to know someone connected with one of those ladies.

Perhaps this one? Oi! Less of the "basic".
