TheAuthority Posted December 11, 2019 VT Supporter Share Posted December 11, 2019 Having got the best hit rate of last year with 3 out of 5 this year I'm looking at a big fat zero so far. Still time for Phil Da Greek, the Queen to pop off and Gazza to go on one final bender which pushes him over the edge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I was about 15/16 we went around my mates house and he produced a VHS cassette a friend had lent him containing a film of an adult nature , older viewers will recall back in the 80's said films tended to have poor quality video with major tracking issues and a piano sound track that used to sound more off key than Robbie Williams .... anyhow , we were watching this film and the woman who was unwell was just being given an "injection" from the visiting doctor to make her better , when it appeared like someone had switched channels and up popped David Bellamy on the screen for about 30 seconds talking about butterflies or something no relevance to his passing , just whenever I hear Bellamy's name I always think of this and start chuckling to myself ... so apologies to anyone in my office saddened by the news of Bellamy's death who saw me start chuckling to myself when they announced the news 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

choffer Posted December 12, 2019 VT Supporter Share Posted December 12, 2019 Thinking about that Jennifer Acuri and wondering how invisible she’s become in the last few weeks. Wondering if I put her in next years pool but it turns out she was offed this year and then not found until next year, does it still count?

mjmooney Posted December 18, 2019 VT Supporter Share Posted December 18, 2019 Kenny Lynch was one of those jack-of-all-trades, master of none, type 60s 'entertainers' - pop singer, songwriter, actor, comedian, he never really quite convinced at any of them. I always felt he wanted to be the Sammy Davis of an imagined Scouse Rat Pack (even though he was a Londoner), with The Beatles, Jimmy Tarbuck, et al. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I wonder now if that might have been the media wondering how to present him maybe? I seem to remember as a kid that I liked him, but felt I shouldn’t as he was already the previous generation. I suspect my soft spot for him was via The Small Faces. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
