Skinny kiltrunner 553 Posted May 19, 2020 I'm not exactly sure what Ryan Seacrest is, but I suppose maybe he is a presenter? Regardless, the rumor mill has begun that something is wrong with him. Probably meaningless tabloid crap, but there is sometimes a seed of truth in a rumor. But probably crap. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I hated the smug prick and no one still can explain how he came into the limelight. I put him on some list here on DL a few years back as the one person I’d like to see die. So I hope he is ill.

YoungWillz 21,050 Posted June 1, 2020 Ann Ladbury, 60s dressmaking presenter who went on to co-present Southern TV's Houseparty, died last month aged 88: https://www.yorkshirepost.co.uk/news/people/obituary-ann-ladbury-dressmaker-2851498 I only say because she's now got a Times Obit: https://www.thetimes.co.uk/article/ann-ladbury-obituary-x8bpdwph2 and that some on here might remember her. Here's a clip (one of several online) from BBC's Weekend Wardrobe: https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p03ty618 I'm not uploading any Houseparty clips which are on YouTube, because the ladies involved are all so bitchy and catty with each other.
