Rude Kid 3 Posted June 27, 2004 Just heard from my co-conspirator on the DDP, Mr Siegfried Baboon, that he went to the Olympic Torch concert in central London yesterday, and was chuffed to see no fewer than five DDP2004 pickees perform: Ozzy & Sharon Osbourne, James Brown, Rod Stewart and Ronnie Wood. Interestingly, he said that Rod was in the worst shape of all of them - even the Godfather Of Soul, at 71 with a long history of ill health, was looking "quite sprightly" by comparison, apparently. One for the committee to consider for next year, maybe? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Night 4 Posted June 27, 2004 He's looked like an exhumation for about 15 years now. What's supposed to be wrong with him? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rude Kid 3 Posted June 28, 2004 Just looking absolutely haggard and a lot less agile than he used to be, apparently. He also had a thyroid cancer scare a couple of years ago. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Teddy 21 Posted June 28, 2004 Just looking absolutely haggard and a lot less agile than he used to be, apparently. I believe the medical term for his condition is pennium lancasterum shaggium syndrome And my apologies for not knowing the Swedish terminology for that. I feel sure someone will tell me soon Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stayin Alive 26 Posted June 28, 2004 Rude Kid - I have to take issue with your description of Olympic flame. Surely you meant: Olympic junior torch lightbulb lantern? I bet it was one of those Vartar affairs with the flashing hazard lights option and a pointless red light... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Anubis the Jackal 76 Posted June 29, 2004 Celebrity Sleepover changed my life too. After watching Our Frank and Michael 'where's my pudding' Winner abuse and denigrate the hospitality of well-meaning proles I sold my television. Sadly this is actually true.

Stayin Alive 26 Posted June 29, 2004 Well, if its of any comfort to you (and recovering reality television forum members in general), Rachel Stevens is looking very hot in todays Guardian, bending over for the dance show in which she featured, at the Olympic Light parade. I think she is the one in the middle. I'm sure Rod, the owner of a pair of carefully trained eyes, would of homed in on the action. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Anubis the Jackal 76 Posted June 29, 2004 I suppose Mr. Winner has been nominated before. Cigars, over-eating, possibility of someone kicking his face off for being a prize arse, surely his boat may soon be called off the municipal lake of life by the bored teenager of fate Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Octopus of Odstock 2,081 Posted June 4, 2013 Flying high in the charts and looks well but i noticed in the Daily Mail story about Prince Phillip, that Stewart has had a virus for a few days now, so maybe not as indestructible as I thought Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ladyfiona 2,437 Posted February 18, 2020 Well just seen Rod Stewart perform at Brit Awards and it was kinda creepy he was singing and dancing infront of teenagers and wasn't very good. Especially if you consider the audience is mostly teenagers. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

harrymcnallysblueandwhitearmy 1,657 Posted August 8 So in 20 years of his thread, he’s looked haggard, had a virus, had coke blown up his arse, sold some of his furniture, was out of breath while dancing, punched someone, sang off key, saw his brother die, and had strep throat. We should be so lucky. 11 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
