Windsor 2,233 Posted July 18, 2005 Apparently Willy was named after her (Ethel's) late husband. What a kind gesture - your husband dies so you replace him with a dog. Feel the love. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BrunoBrimley 86 Posted July 18, 2005 Apparently Willy was named after her (Ethel's) late husband. What a kind gesture - your husband dies so you replace him with a dog. Feel the love. Well it was much more proper than replacing him with, say, the Norman Tabernacle Choir (not to be confused with either the Mormon Tabernacle Choir or The Vienna Boys Choir). Perhaps it was just a subtle way of saying that in ending he really was nothing but a dog. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest S. McNamara Posted July 29, 2005 It is such a shame that Gretchen Franklin died. She was such a terrific actress. She is most definately up there with EastENDERS greats like Den and Angie, Dot cotton, Pat Butcher and Kat and Alfie. She was great to watch throughout the 80s and 90s. Ethel and her Willy use to crack me up! Also her friendship with Dot Cotton and Lou Beale. She will be missed- she was one of the funiest older actors on British television.

Guest ? Posted July 29, 2005 I am disguisted by some of the comments made on people dying eg. Gretchen Franklin. I came onto this website expecting some nice, respectable comments made on those that have pased on. Some of the people that have written on this website are sick in the head and very disrespectful. So get a life you morbid people! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Teddy 21 Posted July 29, 2005 So get a life you morbid people! Thank you for the advice. I will try my best. But one question - you came to this site, called Deathlist, looking for comments about people who had died. And lo and behold - you found some. You even took the time to post your own comments. Does that mean that you are morbid, and should get a life as well? Or does that only apply to those people who don't share your sycophantic viewpoint?

Magere Hein 1,400 Posted July 29, 2005 You even took the time to post your own comments. Does that mean that you are morbid, and should get a life as well? Or does that only apply to those people who don't share your sycophantic viewpoint? Ah, the good old "Do As I Say, Not As I Do"-approach to ethics, amongst the learned also known as hypocrisy. regards, Hein Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
