He looks and sounds hale and hearty here, but it's seven years ago, so who knows. http://gibraltaron.tv/exclusive-interview-gerald-harper One of those actors like Colin Jeavons (also 90 in 2019) who just retired quietly and happily. Last I heard, both were well, but this was a few years ago now. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bibliogryphon 9,586 Posted July 5, 2019 Game On. @Toast is not the only person to advance to two hits @ajlposh had Arte Johnson in Cannonball Run II. So now it is down to Gerald Harper vs Jamie Farr. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TQR 14,398 Posted August 17, 2019 Easily done. For instance, I forgot my three picks were the healthiest cunts in the world. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bibliogryphon 9,586 Posted August 27, 2019 So @Joey Russ had Peter Fonda in Easy Rider and I had Sheila Steafel in The Dalek Invasion of Earth 2150AD. So there are now 7 players with one hit and two players with two hits. Technically until the QO arrives for Sheila then I am in the same position as @Prophet who is still waiting for Ambrose Schindler. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Vinegar Tits 606 Posted October 2, 2019 Anna Quayle was brilliant in pretty much everything she appeared in. She was fab in Grange Hill. I did try to do a Smashing Time theme team a few years ago but sadly there weren't enough people left And now there's one less - farewell Charlotte Brillig, owner of swinging London boutique 'Too Much' . 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bibliogryphon 9,586 Posted October 3, 2019 Congrats to @The Quim Reaper who has his hit with Anna Quayle albeit rather delayed in notification. Eight team have one hit, two have two and one is in limbo lacking in an QO. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

YoungWillz 21,050 Posted November 27, 2019 Shame. I had a film for the next round with Clive James to be picked as one of my three. Alas, I don't think there are three notable picks from that film now. Thinking cap on for next time, once someone wins the inaugural round. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I primarily picked my film for the subject matter (after finding nobody of note still alive from A Matter of Life and Death), and each of the remaining two actors could easily live another decade. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Grim Up North 3,726 Posted February 12, 2020 On 14/08/2018 at 14:51, Bibliogryphon said: Grim Up North The Longest Day Leslie Phillips Stuart Whitman Michael Medwin One of jackpot options on Pointless last night was cast of The Longest Day. As it's over 18 months since I picked these three I was struggling more than I should have been but remembered Michael Medwin to impress Mrs GUN with an obscure pointless answer (although not one mentioned on the show - I had to show her on IMDB). So although all three live on this pool has provided me a small crumb of success. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
