Bibliogryphon 9,571 Posted April 11, 2012 I am a bit concerned that Clive Dunn and the DeathList are so intertwined that should he ever leave us the knock on effect would devastate the DeathList and it too would cease to be!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Spade_Cooley 9,515 Posted April 11, 2012 I am a bit concerned that Clive Dunn and the DeathList are so intertwined that should he ever leave us the knock on effect would devastate the DeathList and it too would cease to be!!! I feel that maybe the lack of main page updates this year is tied in with this, as Dunn himself disintegrates so does the main page. Kinda like a Dorain Gray deal.

harrymcnallysblueandwhitearmy 1,689 Posted April 27, 2012 (edited) The Immortal One features in a BBC2 programme about John Le Mesurier tonight. Not sure when it was made, but I'd have to imagine it's quite recent and he looks in fine form in this clip. Edit: Dad's Army Watch - Pamela Cundell, Jimmy Perry and Frank Williams looked ok for a few more years. No show from Bill Pertwee. Anna Wing also appeared, looking ok for a few more centuries. They don't make em like JLM anymore, a class act. Clive started a joke... One little poem he used to say - "If you want to 'ave some fun, put your finger up your bum and we'll all have a jolly jolly time". That was one of his poems... I don't think you'll be able to use that... but I just thought I'd have to tell you. Edited April 27, 2012 by harrymcnallysblueandwhitearmy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bibliogryphon 9,571 Posted June 7, 2012 Sainsbury's have a range of Father's Day gifts with Dad's Army theme blazoned with the words Don't Panic and Clive's picture. You can get a wallet, socks, tankard. I do hope he is getting some royalties for image rights which should pay for any medical care he may need in the near future. These could also become Deathlist memorabilia. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JR976evil 906 Posted June 8, 2012 When Clive Dunn dies (as he definitely will at some point in the future, fact fans), will the Deathlist retire in his honour? Nah.

Octopus of Odstock 2,187 Posted June 30, 2012 Has there been any controversy in Dunns life? Did he look for 'friendship' in toilets? Did his wife take in a 'lodger'? No, but there was before it. Just reading the excellent biography of John Le Mesurier by Graham McCann, which, of course, features on Dad's Army - of the interesting Dunn (and others) snippets Dunn's mother had an affair with Dad's Army writer, David Croft's, father before both were born. The first person asked to play Lance-Corporal Jones was Jack Haig, later in 'allo 'allo as Leclerc., who couldn't due to other work commitments Dunny, bless him, stalled out for a better financial deal for so long, he was within 4 hours of missing out of the role to.... .... David Jason. If Jason had been Jack Jones, would he have been Granville and Del Boy? We all recognise Dunny as being old before his time, but BEFORE Dad's Army, he played an 83 yr old Boer War Veteran in Bootsie and Smudge - he was 39 at the time. If there was a Deathlist 1960, I am sure he would've been put on that! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
