VileBody 11 Posted September 9, 2005 Oh God - sorry, sorry just checked and it was John Curry who died - mea culpa, mea culpa... Mind you, I believe Mr Cousins is a "bachelor" so even tho he is only 48 he may have got around a bit in the late-70s-80s - possibly may have contracted certain then-unknown and ultimately fatal ailments.

millwall32 114 Posted September 9, 2005 I have made some efforts in that direction already. Are we brave enough to email them directly? If we can think of a pretext. Can you think of anything? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That's ok 'VB' was referring to his 'batchelor' activities when I suggested he may unfortunately have contracted the as then 'unknown' (at least to the public) ailments.

Wastrel 1 Posted September 10, 2005 I briefly met Richard O'Sullivan in the early eighties, he was in the sitcom Me and my girl, with Tim Brooke-Taylor. At the time Tim and I happened to share an accountant,and this is how I ended up having lunch with them both. Anyway to cut a long story short, it was clear from my short aquaintance that Richard was somewhat of a depressive. Although I'm told this is quite common in the theatrical profession. I am saddened by what has become of Mr. O'Sullivan. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

maryportfuncity 10,646 Posted September 11, 2005 Re Robin Cousins, does anyone have any inside information here? I'm assuming he's gay on the gist of the posts above but how many party boys have muscled their way into Robin's nest? (arf arf). I mean, his low profile might be health related or more related to vast amounts of cash salted away and little need to break sweat in the cause of surviving.

Slave to the Grave 26 Posted September 11, 2005 After over 30 years on the ice and 20 years of professional skating shows and competitions, Robin finally decided to retire from skating due to knee and back problems from his years of jumping. From a fan site. Not exactly life threatening. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Guest Posted September 16, 2005 Mr O'Sullivan was fabulous in 'Man about the house'. It does not bother me enough to get eaten up by the vile posts on this site. It's like stumbling across a cheaper version of The Private Eye. I am sure that Richard would take this site as it was meant to be. As Oscar Wilde said 'There's only one thing worse than being talked about...not being talked about'! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Bark at the Moon Posted September 17, 2005 Hahaha. Just got the biggest laugh of the week, did mah mother and I, after reading this thread. Dickie has long been a subject of amusement after we accidentally watched Robins Nest a few months ago...since seeing him in The Sun a while back, we were curious to find out what had happened to him. Now that we know where he lives, we'll probably end up wasting tomorrow driving back and forth past Brinsworth trying to get an update picture. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Mr Magoo Posted September 17, 2005 It's like stumbling across a cheaper version of The Private Eye. I feel a T.V. spinoff coming on, how about "Have I got Death For You" ? It would tie in quite nicely, we could have four pictures of dead celebs... And yes Lady Diana is the odd one out as all the others died of ... I think Angus Deighton is available to host it too. By the way, IMHO the only thing that was fabulous in "Man about the house" was Sally Thomsett's chest. What a great compliment this site has been paid by this peeved little herbert Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
