Death Watch Beatle 41 Posted April 8, 2004 After doing a bit more surfing, I have come across the following testicular cancer scare article. When you read it you will see that the lump on the Dennis crown jewels was benign, but I mention it here for two reasons. 1 - His name can be noted and any reoccurance can be monitored for DeathList research purposes. 2 - Seeing as a number of members of the DeathList like to write witty headlines, they might like to have a crack at this one - assuming that the cancer would see him off. http://news.scotsman.com/latest.cfm?id=2732106 DWB 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I just didn't get the context - some nu lond'n slang izit ? PS The photo's great I am guessing that Millwall was referring to Les Dennis's ex-missus as being either flat or skinny like a flounder.

YoungWillz 21,039 Posted July 11, 2018 As there was a recent story in The Times behind a paywall I couldn't read, thought I'd do a little search on Les Dennis Heseltine. As it turns out, he's lost some weight doing some sort of TV challenge, reversed a pre-diabetes diagnosis and actively advertising that he would like to be on Strictly Come Dancing. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-5500037/Les-Dennis-reveals-hes-lost-19Ibs-reversed-pre-diabetes.html (March 2018) So we'll be waiting a while for him I guess.

YoungWillz 21,039 Posted March 9, 2020 Les Dennis is trending so I thought I'd have a look. Someone seems to have falsely accused him of something. This has escalated out of hand, but some of it is quite funny. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

This has escalated out of hand, but some of it is quite funny. Just seen this! Sounds like a right bastard by all accounts: “I saw Les Dennis throwing Guide Dogs off the top of a multi-storey car park a few years back. He seemed especially pleased when they didn’t die straight away.” 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
YoungWillz 21,039 Posted November 18, 2022 Les Dennis now appearing as Grandad in the Only Fools musical. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/femail/article-11430801/Now-starring-Fools-musical-Les-Dennis-reveals-careers-heartbreak-tragedy.html Must be nice to be described thus: Now 69, Les Dennis is a survivor. Having won New Faces in the early 70s as an impressionist and comedian, he's one of very few men left standing from a generation of comics who have otherwise died, been lost to scandal or faded away. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Philip 121 Posted November 19, 2022 How is he not even 70 yet? Always thought he was much older Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Deathrace 1,170 Posted November 19, 2022 5 hours ago, Philip said: How is he not even 70 yet? Always thought he was much older As the article states, he started very young and has been on TV for about 50 years. Random fact, his actual surname is Heseltine. Not sure if he's related. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
