Following on from Hawtrey's remarkable wiggage, I think it only fair that we mention Tony Curtis who wore some real monstrosities in later life.

Evening folks,

We read daily about the latest and greatest battery tech. Read this to get

a feel for how much BS and 'spin' is out there, a bit like all the guys that

make the latest and greatest graphene - lol



The chat board at the end is good.

This is another gem you may enjoy, the criminally forgotten "Potter" starring Arthur Lowe in the first two series, Robin Bailey replaced the deceased Lowe in series three.



Look out for the tracksuit, flat cap outfit in episode one and late career appearance of Harry H. Corbett in series two.

Fifty one remastered and colourised episodes here mate.

Have you ever watched this ?

Fest H W..... Wilf Bramble my hero.

“Harold”.... “Harold”

If you thought the last picture of Hawtrey was bad, cop a load of this one of Wilfrid Bramble, he got nicked for cottaging, died of cancer and only six people attended his funeral.

Smythe2, one went for almost 9k at auction a few years back.



"Principal auctioneer Richard Edmonds" looks a like a good laugh.

So say what you want about Lewis Fest, "one trick pony" or not he worked consistently until he was almost eighty, he didn't end his own life, fall off a roof fixing his TV aerial, fall victim to arson, live in penury for years or purchase millions of PET shares.

Fest H W..... some boy that Rod Hull bless him.....whatever happened to his Emu??

Gap toothed bounder Terry Thomas fell victim of Parkinson's and spent a number of years in poverty until his plight was discovered and funds were raised enabling him to spend his final days in a nursing home.

Hawtrey with wig being interviewed by Roy Hudd

Charles Hawtrey got his flat torched by "rentboy"





Hawtrey without wig after being rescued from the fire, apparently he refused to leave the building until he has retrieved his "fags" which can be seen in his hand here

It's sad how many comedy stars meet an ignominious fate, post fame.

Here's a documentary about the downfall of Rod Hull, downfall in a metaphorical and literal sense.

Hey Fest can you ask your mates at North Wales Police when Dean is getting his gear back, he's really struggling with the naff Kindle Fire his mate loaned him ?

[fest hates wow] 13/6/2021 19:25

I shouldn't mock really as the poor sod really struggled post OTB. This is a horribly uncomfortable 20 mins viewing when the OTB cast appeared on Wogan.

Bob clearly in a bad way, desperately plugging his latest work.



Well done on the mask purchase, I hope you'll post a picture of you wearing it when it arrives.

[festario] 13/6/2021 19:20

Informative information ... ha ha ha,

[smythe2] 13/6/2021 19:15

Fest Hates Wow.....Thank you for the sad informative information regarding Bob Grant...in a mark of respect I have purchased the £2.89 Ebay Stephen Lewis mask and shall duly wear it.
Thanks again

[fest hates wow] 13/6/2021 18:51

For the modest sum of £2.89 you too can be 'Blakey'



'Pre Cut' always a boon.
