    She might need financial advice from William Roache.

    British embassies have been denying reports in Russian media that King Charles has passed away.

    World War II Veterans

    Good to hear that all his children are still alive. However the oldest ever person to have a living parent appears to be Willie Rogers who was 97 years & 109 days (he died 6 days before he was 100) when his mother Bettie Wilson (1890-2006) died.

    Cricket Thread. Only Mad Dogs And Englishmen

    Proctor was a truely great all-rounder although best known for his bowling. He was so immense while playing for 16 years for Gloucestershire (no Test cricket after 1970 due to being South African) that his county were nicknamed "Proctorshire".

    Oldest Living football league players

    In that case the number drops to 8 as the other 19 are from countries such as India, South Africa, Australia, Jamaica, New Zealand and even one from Scotland!

    Oldest Living football league players

    Interesting to read - 27 first class male cricketers reached 100.

    Former footballers certainly do not seem to live as long as former cricketers. There have been around 20 centenarian former first class cricketers - difficult to recall any centenarian footballers.

    Monty Python

    Probably only needs a 'few quid' - to live the life of luxury that most could only dream of so I won't be contributing to the IRF {Idle Rich Fund.}

    Foreign Personalities, From Stage, Screen, Politics And Life

    Don Murray has died aged 94. An extremely prolific actor for many decades but many will remember him as Sid Fairgate in Knots Landing and the shock when he was killed off as he was the best known actor in the show.

    British Character Actors

    Michael Knowles and Caroline Dowdeswell are apparently the most 'significant' Dad's Army actors still alive.

    Ideas and possibilities for 2025

    Pretty good but a very rushed ending. Not surprising that only one adult star remains from the 1959 film as only Robert Powell and Timothy West appear to be alive from the 1978 version.

    British Character Actors

    Also Michael Knowles (born 1937) who appeared in some episodes and also adapted many episodes for radio transmission.
