Cliff Ton 10,458 Posted November 24, 2015 Report Share Posted November 24, 2015 # 20. Carni. I thought there was a thread especially for Richard Beckinsale. It certainly appears a lot of people knew him, LOL There was indeed. Started by a person who hasn't signed on here for a long time but who was a bit obsessed with Mr Beckinsale. http://nottstalgia.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=12350 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

MargieH 7,599 Posted November 24, 2015 Report Share Posted November 24, 2015 When I was nursing at Harlow Wood Hospital, Tony Hately the Notts County footballer, was on the ward I was working on. I think he had a broken leg, but can't remember exactly. At Leicester Royal Infirmary, I was on nights in the ward that one of the Dallas Boys was on. Can't remember why he was in there...

Rob.L 1,088 Posted November 24, 2015 Report Share Posted November 24, 2015 A lad I was at Carlton le Willows with was on Eastenders many years back, playing a vicar. Didn't ther watching as I can't stand the programme. Can't even recall his first name now, only surname - Gillespie. Edit - now I remember, David Gillespie. He was also in Red Dwarf for a bit. http://m.davidgillespie.co.uk/#!Home|home_page Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Merthyr Imp 729 Posted November 24, 2015 Report Share Posted November 24, 2015 Don't know if these count: 1. I worked for several years with someone who was on Blind Date at the age of about 60. 2. I also worked with someone who appeared on This Your Life when Robin Bailey (maybe best-known as Uncle Mort in I Didn't Know You Cared) was the subject. He was there to reminisce about their days in amateur dramatics in Hucknall. I'm another person who was at High Pavement at the same time as Harold Shipman. He was a few years above me, and I can't say that I remember the name at all - but his name does appear in a couple of the school magazines I've still got. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

DAVIDW 1,681 Posted November 24, 2015 Report Share Posted November 24, 2015 Can't believe no Gedling-ites have mentioned Loose Woman and Benidorm star , Sherrie Hewson or Hutchinson as she was known at Gedling Sec Mod . She was in the year below me but I went to a lot of parties at her house in Burton Joyce and she was a regular at the Burton Joyce youth club. My mate was besotted with her ! 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
