Death Watch Beatle 41 Posted October 28, 2005 Do you guys at TROSAS have a website? Perhaps one with a forum which we could pollute with semi-literate bullcrap? Fair is fair, y'know. . . . and I assume I will be able to log-in under half a dozen names or more and start a conversation with myself. As the great Potato says: "Fair is Fair!"

maryportfuncity 10,658 Posted October 28, 2005 The reason a lot of us (not all) have the same ISP maybe because we are using the computers at the HQ of The Richard O Sullivan Appreciation Society, where we nip to on our days off, weekends, lunch breaks, etc to enjoy a swin, game of tennis, and indeed our Dickie O Videos and DVDS!! Days down there must be so busy you're struggling to fit in those all important lessons on spelling, punctuation and grammar. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
maryportfuncity 10,658 Posted October 28, 2005 Culled from a comedy central web site, the details below relate to Trouble In Mind. 1991 vintage and Dickie O's final television series, not one mentioned by our posting pals from his - ahem - Appreciation Society. Summary Adam Charlesworth (Richard O'Sullivan) is a psychiatrist who is married to Julia (Susan Penhaligan). Their children have left home and Julia has started a lanscape gardening business with Stanley Chambers (Jim McManus). Adam is suffering a midlife crisis and planning to have a vasectomy. Because of poor viewing figures, the series was cancelled in mid-run. The remaining episodes were shown some months later Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He was on TV till 1997-8, making new shows. A good series tho. Us here at RO'S AS must dig out the video tapes and give it a good viewing, been ages since i saw that!

Boudicca 702 Posted October 28, 2005 There are some kind words to be found here: Dick Turpin is a brilliant ride and master swordsman.. Here's a picture just for you, Alan: Richard O'Sullivan engaged in thoroughly convincing fisticuffs Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
maryportfuncity 10,658 Posted October 28, 2005 He was on TV till 1997-8, making new shows Apart from the one-off dark comedy 'Holed' in 1996 which wasn't 'his' show, just a film and a guest appearance playing himself in a later film which 'new shows' did he make into the mid-nineties?

Grim Reaper 186 Posted October 28, 2005 a guest appearance playing himself in a later film Credit where it's due - I have it on good authority that he was reasonably convincing in that role Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Peter Posted October 29, 2005 Richard O'S is one of the most seen people ever on TV, so no matter what you say, he is a legend! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
maryportfuncity 10,658 Posted October 29, 2005 Well if we use that criteria the cat strolling along the roof and opening Coronation Street for years is a bigger legend than Dickie O could ever hope to be. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tuber Mirum 125 Posted October 29, 2005 The Test Card Girl (with the clown and the blackboard) would possibly give the Corrie Cat a run for its money. Both girl and clown displayed marginally more talent than Mr O'Sullivan. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

maryportfuncity 10,658 Posted October 29, 2005 Nope She turns up every once in a while on those 'I've got a secret' types of programmes and/or articles in the press. She's in her forties now. Think the clown is long gone to a landfill somewhere. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I haven't seen those two for ages - are they still in use? The girl is Carole Hersee, the daughter of George Hersee who designed the test card. Sadly, test cards seem to be on the decline.
