Bibliogryphon 9,650 Posted August 18, 2014 Denis attended David Frost's memorial in March this year and judging by this collection of photos is worthy of inclusion. Peter Sissons and Ronnie Corbett look less than well and if anyone can find out who is on the arm of Margaret Beckett he should definitely go on someone's list. But they did attend which in itself is significant. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The man with Margaret Beckett is her husband, Leo. No idea, can't find much information on him. She's 71, so I'm guessing he'll be mid-late 70s unless there's a huge age gap between the two.

Galento 24 Posted August 18, 2014 I think he is about 86, based on the fact that in 2007, he was 79. He has the reputation of being a bit of a character, and the oft-used phrase "casual racist" could apply, given some of the stories heard some years ago.

Lord Fellatio Nelson 6,226 Posted August 19, 2014 I did read, a very long time back, one of those newspaper gossip columns which was giving out clues pertaining to certain celebrities and their "unusual" behaviours. One of the clues alleged that a certain man was prone to visiting a females who were specialists in "correcting errant behaviour" in particular "difficult cases". One of the clues was the phrase "...what a cock up..." Perhaps one of our collegues with an ear turned towards the entertainment industry could confirm?

I believe that the man in question was a regular visitor to some of the more poorly lit establishments in Soho up until as recently as a decade ago. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nicolas parsons I don't know because I don't think i ever seen him present a show but Yea nothing against john craven or denis norden but they bored me too. With Norden though it maybe because he was presenting a home video show / blooper reel show which I personally think are the worse shows, next to judging panel talent competition shows. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dr. Zorders 1,272 Posted October 30, 2014 I have it on good authority that there is an announcement pending about Denis Norden. The dusty bugger is rumoured to be on the verge of 'rolling a seven'. Is this information from his "driver" again? If so, fuck off. Worst driver since David Coulthard, and/or the 1999 video game. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Must of spent about 30mins trying to figure out how to get out of it only to be disappointed you couldn't. Then again the game was called driver, I guess I only had myself to blame lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Spade_Cooley 9,637 Posted November 3, 2014 Love the idea that Denis Norden's death would be this massively concealed event and that it would have to pass through several layers of security before being announced lest the reverberations of the news caused a revolution among the proles. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
