VileBody 11 Posted April 22, 2005 I see Mr Cole is 80 today.... ...and also that some genius put him on the list in 1989...good call.... Should he "minder" out in 2006? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Brinsworth House Baiter 12 Posted January 8, 2006 Okay, bit new at all this & finding my feet, so to speak, so bear with me. So this is all about who's going to shuffle off their mortal coil & all that, yeah? No flies on me, buddy! Well, my first prediction & it pains me to do so as I am a fan, is the wonderful Mister George Cole. As great an actor he might have been in the St. Trinians films & the legendary Minder, he looked at death's door the other night when I saw him on the box. On, not in. Shane Richie did a half hour slot on Minder, just after Doc Martin, & George was on it with Dennis Waterman. Dennis looked bad enough (I've commented on him elsewhere) but George looked awful. Granted, he is 80 odd but lumme, his bloodshot eyes made him look like the undead. In fact, it just might be possible that George Cole is the first celebrity vampire. Discuss.

BrunoBrimley 86 Posted January 8, 2006 Well that's all fine and dandy and all but we already had a hit with the immortal Lou Rawls (no relation as to my knowledge at least to Bert Rawls who was a postman) Do you have a pool of death somewhere where these listings of yours arte posted? This Cole character seems interesting as a choice..... I can see it now..."Cole turns cold" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nope, don't have a list as yet- like I said, I'm a newbie, but old George came to mind after seeing him the other night. In fact, he's been perturbing me since the other night. Ghastly, quite ghastly. Gawd only knows what 'Er Indoors thinks about it all. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Entropy 5 Posted January 8, 2006 I watched the old Christmas Carol movie during the holidays; it's surprising any of them are alive this much later apart from the ones who were children at the time. Speaking of which, apparently the kid who played Master Peter Cratchit (Tiny Tim's older brother) committed suicide about 10 years after the movie was released. No details given about method or motive, though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cerberus 304 Posted January 9, 2006 I wonder if anyone remembers his "classic" Christmas single: " 'Old up, 'ere comes Chisholm." "He's giving me a funny look!"

Lady Die 63 Posted January 9, 2006 I saw him in a play a few years ago called "Lock up your daughters". It was the biggest pile of crap I've ever seen & I left at 1/2 time. Hope he dies soon to spare everyone more rubbish like that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

No details given about method or motive, though. Kid was called John Charlesworth & killed himself in 1960, nine years after Scrooge! was released. Had a quick flick through Rotten.com, imbd & wikipedia, but can't find any reference to it method etc. As for motive, I think it's fair to say that he wanted to end it all.

Guest Lucinda Jackson Posted February 12, 2006 Where are you from? And why dont you register? I ought well ask you the same thing. You look like a terrorist I saw mentioned on the television news. Since you must know I am from the 3rd house from the corner and have 4 pit bull dogs trained to attack. Further there is no reason for me to register in this hellhole of a forum.
