The Great Cornholio 899 Posted October 2, 2020 Very surprised to find there isn't a thread for presenter, singer and comedian Des O'Connor (who turns 89 in a few months). Des is getting pretty old now, plus considering he has a 16 year old son to look after at his age I reckon that surely has to wear him down. A good candidate for 2021 DL? 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Deathrace 1,161 Posted October 2, 2020 Agreed. Des's time has come. I'd also suggest another iconic Desmond, Des Lynam, to join him and for Tutu to stay on the list to make it a triumvirate of Desmonds. There should be more Desmonds than Channel Four in the 1990s on next year's list. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ulitzer95 12,434 Posted October 2, 2020 There should be a Des O'Connor v Sandra Day O'Connor v Sinead O'Connor poll. They've all been serial deadpooling letdowns up until now. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's me age, you see, it all begins to sag and your ears grow big enough to make Dumbo fucking envious. I am certain I shouted him out in the ideas and possibilities thread earlier this year or even last year. The last time I saw him, on the Harry Hill show, he looked old, ponderous and his voice was very weak. He will see 90, though. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Your are not English or you are pretty old. I've not heard that word for eons, generally, the word used nowdays is 'Slag' which is usually preceeded by the word 'fucking'.

I’m slightly losing it at the idea of all men looking down once they get to a certain age and thinking to themselves “Fuck sake, I’m so old my bollocks look like Des O’Connor” 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Youth in Asia 1,082 Posted October 3, 2020 I'm going to go out on limb here and speculate that he is the only one of the male guests that participated in legendary Morecambe and Wise sketches to still be alive, after the sad demise of Brucie, Preview, Ed Wood3 and a few others. There were other male guests like Elton John but the sketches weren't so good. The women like Rippon and Jackson are still going. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
