Guest Gary Posted September 12, 2012 Terry Nutkins Just like to say RIP Terry,great bloke from my childhood watching TV,had a seal for a pet,fucking brilliant,also just found out he had 8 kids,maybe he should've been called Terry Nutsack? Johnny Morris also left Nutkins most of his estate in his will. So while I'm not saying that they were gay lovers, they're both dead so we can't libel them any more. More likley Johnny Morris left him the money as Mr nutkins was the only person still talking to hin when he died, JM by all accounts was a very vindictive and precious human being who would take pleasure in bullying those who he felt had slighted him. Best regards Syd But all those animals liked talking to him. I can confirm that Johnny Morris' charm was very much turned on for the cameras. He was a miserable old sod. He was filming an episode of Animal Magic at Marwell Zoo and had a troupe of boy scouts keeping people away from him while he was in the beer tent they had set up. I know of other people who have said similar things when they met him. Oh well-as the old saying has it-never meet your heroes! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Interceptor was fantastic, if only for the Interceptor himself, that guy was an absolute riot.

Wouldn't DEFRA save a fortune and get a free cull if they hired some CGI genius to create a youtube clip of a badger with a posh accent claiming the 96 Hillsborough dead brought it on themselves?

Vinegar Tits 606 Posted September 19, 2012 No other confirmation as yet but comes from what I would think is a reliable source - Mike Smith (of DJ and Sarah Greene hubby fame) has announced on Twitter that former TOTP producer Michael Hurll has died. EDIT: MSN are reporting his death, but only via tweets stemming from Mike Smith's original. Looks like he had Parkinson's Disease btw, though don't know if that is what killed him.
