maryportfuncity 10,013 Posted November 25, 2016 Martin Aitchison, Mota Singh, William Trevor, Ruth Gruber and David Manusco this week. Bit of a clear out of the backlog. Enjoy the show. You could walk down most high streets with pictures of that entire line up and draw a blank if you asked people who they were. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
msc 17,761 Posted November 25, 2016 They drew a blank, but I know Aitchison's work on a google, he illustrated most (all?) of the Ladybird kids books which were in every single library I ever visited growing up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rockhopper penguin 2,264 Posted December 2, 2016 Late entry for Andrew Sachs? He did, and somehow beat Fidel Castro. I was hoping they'd try and make a political connection with the Fawlty Towers Basil the rat episode. Franco was still alive when Basil said 'don't you have rats in Spain or did Franco have them all shot'. But a bit tenuous I guess. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
