Paul Bearer 6,102 Posted May 21, 2018 Watching something on ch5 last night and Leslie Grantham (AKA Dirty Den) popped up on it. Holy shit he's aged. Might be one to watch out for. Sorry if he has a thread. Can't find one already set up for him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JR976evil 906 Posted May 21, 2018 If he does die, can we be sure he won’t re-emerge about 15 or so years later via some poorly contrived yarn? 1 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Don’t give them ideas though surely they can’t bring him back from the dead again, he looks like he has been dead for 15 years on that programme last night. I reckon he has cancer as he was on this morning last year and he didn’t look that bad apart from a bit of white hair and natural ageing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Suppose if things get really desperate they could resort to the old Bobby Ewing trick, they do seem obsessed with dredging up old characters on that show Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
EGN 121 Posted May 21, 2018 If he does die I wonder whether he'll pop Charon in the back of the head with a pistol to avoid the fee across the Styx? 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dead Wait 1,146 Posted June 11, 2018 http://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-5832277/EastEnders-star-Leslie-Grantham-71-fighting-life.html I’ve already posted this in the soap thread but didn’t realise he had his own. Fighting for life......if he dies though he’ll probably come back in a few years anyway! (Yes, same joke as I posted in the other thread too!!) 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sean 6,330 Posted June 12, 2018 Even the BBC are running the story which is a bad sign.They quote his agent saying "We will make a further statement at the appropriate time" which sounds ominous. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sean 6,330 Posted June 12, 2018 What was the channel 5 show he was on looking like death on called? want to see if I can find it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
msc 18,477 Posted June 12, 2018 6 minutes ago, Sean said: What was the channel 5 show he was on looking like death on called? want to see if I can find it. Top of the Box, an above average nostalgia fest about the top rated TV shows per year, hosted by a surprisingly old Matthew Kelly. Derek Fowlds was on the 1995 one last week and looked like shit. Though Mrs msc though he looked "less like shit than usual". And yeah, Grantham looks hellish on it. It's on Five - possibly on their Five on Demand thingy? Grantham shows up on every episode so far as a talking head. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Just watched the footage for Top of the Box.Not a chance guy looks and sounds worse than Jim Bowen did in the documentary. In fact, he looks as bad as Reg Cox did in the first episode of EastEnders. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TBF, you have to give him credit, playing Captain Hook and never getting his good hand and the hook mixed up when he was shuffling his todger infront of the camera to his adoring fan. I trust he was equally as careful when he was wiping his arse. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Well, from the pic, he looks like a man in his 70s who has lived in Bulgaria for a few years ( obviously hasn't a pot to piss in then ) and, probably has normal health issues for a 70 something. The alternative argument is that he has spent too long webcamming with his knob out and it has ruined him ( take note DL member) and has worn him out to the point of exhaustion. Maybe.
