YoungWillz 21,178 Posted January 8, 2023 Charlie Drake, Jimmy Edwards and Max Bygraves also. It looks like Roy Walker in the left corner, but I'm not thinking it is. The woman behind Sid James is totally obscured. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Daredevil 1,193 Posted January 8, 2023 Roger Moore and Stanley Baker also look visible in that photo. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Left corner is apparently Roger Moore, and tbh, he's my favourite Bond and I didn't recognise him from that angle. Drake (apparently I'm mixing him up with Charlie Williams) and Bygraves were the other two I struggled with. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It was a Variety Club Christmas special…where celebrities visited very sick kids in hospital. The old celebs are smiling too much for my liking…whilst Parky is a bit more pensive Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Daredevil 1,193 Posted January 9, 2023 Parkinson is the oldest Star in a Reasonably Priced Car on Top Gear, followed by John Prescott. However, Bernie Eccleston guest starred in one episode of Top Gear and although he still seems in fair health today, it is a surprise this 92 year old has managed to evade The DeathList this long. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Well Ecclestone still looks good for 92 and has no known health issues.He may be going senile but then again he has always been very eccentric/ weird. Edit:Had a heart bypass in 1999. Reckon he will be called up next year or the year after at the latest. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Both were figures before my time, so in my pop culture memory, the black comic who worked with Frank Carson and co on The Comedians was called Charlie Drake till I Google it and am reminded that's the guy who got KO'd for real on live TV in the early 60s instead. It's nowt to do with thinking they look similar. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

All in jest, squire…only joking Far more important….did you know Charlie Williams was actually a professional footballer who turned to comedy when he retired. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
