Toast 16,141 Posted September 10, 2013 Watching Pointless. Does anyone else think John Noakes looks like he's not looking after himself very well. I was going to post this,sad to say but IMO the bloke is going senile,at least Peter Purves had his marbles on that show With all these 1970s male tv celebs coming under fire from Operation Yewtree, I surprised Peter hasn't been under suspicion yet... especially with a relevant surname like his. No Peter will it seems shag anything in a skirt (I got that from his own autobiography) but I do not think there is any suscpicion that he did anything illegal. Including Valerie Singleton, although he did have to kick Joan Armatrading out of her bed first, so I'm told... He also notched up Jean Marsh from their days on Doctor Who. Really? I wonder if he finished upstairs or downstairs... He certainly Rose to the occasion. Did he go down on with Lady Marjorie as well, one wonders. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Well if you sleep around enough the law of averages may win out, possibly the fate that may have befallen Bill Roache... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

maryportfuncity 10,647 Posted September 12, 2013 This thread is horrific and I DEMAND that it is deleted forthwith. Well, either that or we get it back on track. Anyone know if John Leslie is still partial to a bit of the old Bolivian Marching Powder and - therefore - heading for middle-aged heart trouble? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Anyone know if John Leslie is still partial to a bit of the old Bolivian Marching Powder and - therefore - heading for middle-aged heart trouble? More than likely. I do know that Christopher Wenner (the boring one that only I seem to remember) was receiving treatment for throat cancer last year. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

One shot Paddy 1,206 Posted September 12, 2013 I remember him roping out of a Wessex helicopter, so not boring all the time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bibliogryphon 9,586 Posted September 16, 2013 I got the impression Chris Wenner actually despised the show. Didn't last very long. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Guest Posted June 30, 2015 Watching Pointless. Does anyone else think John Noakes looks like he's not looking after himself very well. Yes, I was thinking the same thing. I thought physically he wasn't looking too bad but something just wasn't right, he looked very confused. He did, I noticed Peter Purves actually had to physically position him a couple of times. I also thought he looked a bit scruffy, but then I think he always has been. Now we know why. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bibliogryphon 9,586 Posted July 1, 2015 I think John Noakes will feature on many more lists next year and might be worthy of consideration for the main list. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Two players had picked him on my work's game and I was getting ready to send the update round with the title Gone with Noakes. Anyway I am quite glad he has survived I quite like him.
