S/he's barely begun his/her life.' Twiggy, for one, did it when she was mid-20's at most, so she might turn out to be the longest liver from TIYL to pegging out.

They were shit then, they are shit now. Badly filmed, badly acted and atrociously written, they were never taken seriously and they should not be now. It was a child of it's time, you cannot erase it, it's all part of societies learning curve......or summat. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Man About The Forum 78 Posted March 10, 2021 It's more a private members' club than a care home, is it not? He remains one of the greatest British actors of his era. Not for his acting ability, which was what it was (and what was needed back then), but for never knowingly not bedding at least one of his co-stars in every performance!

Havng said that, I have been known to celebrate my own birthday in multiple locations... Obviously I would not wish to be accused of "nudging" an individual thread . It's just that I feel that there are two threads that are simply sacred. The Special One (whose name needs to be whispered in awe...oh how I miss her) .....and of course Richard.....

Actually make that tomorrow is Richard O'Sullivan day the day before yesterday, i.e. yestreday, as its just turned midnight. Or simply, Askwith's tweet is dated 9 Dec, so RO'S day would be the 10th. It would appear you're right about the cricket though. Thank god there's no Aussies frequenting these boards these days. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
