    My Godson worked at a place where Robert Plant was customer. One of his colleagues stage whispered to him "Thats Robert Plant in the queue" to which he replied "Who's Robert Plant?"
    "I'm f***ing Robert Plant" Was boomed as he burst out laughing.Down to earth guy (but unfortunately a dingle)

    Big Sam! I was splashing around in a pool
    In Orlando and turned around and Big Sam was in there playing with his grandson. Not a nice guy and his wife had a gob like the Mersey tunnel.

    That doesn’t surprise me one bit absolutely has such a high opinion of himself, common as muck and no class
    Hence the screw up when he managed to get the England job, thankfully that didn’t last

    In his mind you can imagine he thinks he’s up there with Fergie n Clougie

    BTW Roger Moore was the nicest actor you could have ever met. Met him twice and we exchanged a lot of small talk. Back stage at Malvern and in the towns jewellers shop. Lady Moore was lovely also.

    I often wonder if these TV chefs ever cook at home. Perhaps they order takeaways as they are generally very portly, they rarely look a picture of health.

    When you rewatch any clips of Department S or Jason King now he was so obviously gay. I read the biography of Alan Bates (another supposed lady's man) a few years ago and Wyngarde was a long time partner of his. Sad really that they could not openly be themselves whether they were gay/bi or whatever. That sort of repression probably led to the whole cruising scene.

    I loved Department S.


    Talking of stars hiding in the closet, I will reprise an old story I've told here before.

    My dad's best mate was a Birmingham copper in the mid 60's and was called to a top hotel in the city to deal with noise disturbance from one of the rooms.

    Him and his partner banged on the door of the room and found a man in his mid 20's in a state of undress with two blond ****age boys who were butt naked.....allegedly.

    They immediately recognised this major pop star and realised it was going to be a problem because being a shirt lifter in 65-66 was illegal in the UK.

    The singers manager was called and a conversation was had with the Inspector at the station and a caution was issued under the stars true name and not his pop star name ( allegedly )

    Probably best to ask Sue Barker whether she played doubles or mixed doubles with him.

    Interestingly my best mate had a friend who worked for this same national treasure pop star at a house he had in the UK and claimed evidence of similar (though not under-age)This must have been in the early/mid 80s just before he was fighting all the speculation in the press and refusing to comment on his ***uality.

    Morning BS - hope the little one is well! The whole family were as common as muck - you could hear the wife from one end of the pool to the other. The son ( the agent ) thought he was some kind of celebrity with his designer shades,

    It was a nice family Hilton hotel as we were there ( no other Brits ) but you would have thought with his money he would have booked a luxury hotel and there are loads there. Tight c unt! When I said good morning to him one day he looked at me like there was something on the bottom of his shoe!
