farenuf 0 Posted March 29, 2006 Author Report Share Posted March 29, 2006 First part correct - his mother is better known for her multi coloured hairstyles Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Tutanic 8 Posted March 29, 2006 Report Share Posted March 29, 2006 Did Rob mean Cathy Burke of GIMME, GIMME, GIMME fame? If not I don't think the 'Burke' was aimed at anyone in particular, he went to High Pavement and William Crane so he would not be so rude... A bighug Quote Link to post Share on other sites
rob237 89 Posted March 29, 2006 Report Share Posted March 29, 2006 I think I meant Patricia/Pat Burke, I think....possibly..... Can't make my mind up whether to be decisive....or not.... Thanks for reference Ann....but don't forget Pavement produced Dr Harold Shipman - year after mine! Cheers Robt P. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
pemberton 15 Posted March 29, 2006 Report Share Posted March 29, 2006 was the actress who played his mother Mollie Sugden? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
pemberton 15 Posted March 29, 2006 Report Share Posted March 29, 2006 2nd thought from 'her who must be obeyed' says it may be Lizze Smith, think thats her name - she played in 'Vicar of Dibley', used to make the obnoxious cakes. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
rob237 89 Posted March 29, 2006 Report Share Posted March 29, 2006 Reckon 'HWMBO' is wrong....thee is correct. "Never take note of a woman twixt Michelmas and St Crispian's Day" - Old Somerset saying, circa 1750. Cheers Robt P. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

farenuf 0 Posted March 29, 2006 Author Report Share Posted March 29, 2006 Mollie Sugden it was - also played Nerys Hughes' mum in the Liver Birds !bravo! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
rob237 89 Posted March 29, 2006 Report Share Posted March 29, 2006 Mollie Sugden it was - also played Nerys Hughes' mum in the Liver BirdsĀ !bravo! Now realise I was mixing up the radio & TV versions.... IIRC, the radio series was earlier and longer running. Quite surprising to recall how, at that time, many basically 'children's' entertainers became major radio performers for adult audiences of millions. Their eventual transfer to the TV screen seemed to guarantee a career setback. Cheers Robt P. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
