Sean 6,337 Posted September 6, 2018 My guess at this point is that the alzheimers rumour was not a rumour.Either that or his arthritis makes him physically unable to sign his own name.One to bring back on next year's list. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Depends on the number of people brawling them to state the obvious, 3 people vs DP would be a no brainer over who would win. I mean there were typically 2 bouncers at this place, if I remember correctly, so if it were just one guy taunting DP then my grandad would've probably taken him if DP was left swinging at the air. My Grandad served in the national guard and made a living as an engineer on the Harry Brown so both him and DP were fairly big and mean looking back then so I doubt too many people wanted to fight them. Once about 14 years back, DP was in Milton Keynes signing autographs with Kenny Baker (R2D2) and he signed a photo of Darth Vader for me (as I was a big Star Wars fan). I told him about how he knew my grandad and DP called him up the next day and they spent the day out together. Sadly my grandad died about a year later so a lot of the stories he had about working with David Prowse ended up getting lost in the midst of time... 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
