Prince. Absolutely and forever. Was so disappointed when I found out he was a junkie.

SlipSlidin · 22/03/2020 12:46

I met Woody in Sainsbury’s about 2 months ago, he was buying shoes. He looks exactly the same as he always did.

oakthorn · 22/03/2020 12:47

I had quite forgotten all about Donny until in boredom one day I was watching Joseph on Netflix and oh my . He was delicious

chockaholic72 · 22/03/2020 12:47

Brian Capron when he played Mr. Hopwood in Grange Hill (but he’s possibly better known as Richard Hillman from Corrie now)

SerenDippitty · 22/03/2020 12:48

Forgot about sportspeople - Barry John, David Gower, Derek Randall.

SerenDippitty · 22/03/2020 12:49

Remember Brian Capron when he played a porter in General Hospital.

Standrewsschool · 22/03/2020 12:52

Was Brian Capron the teacher the pupils all had a mass protest about, when he left/was sacked?

mygrandchildrenrock · 22/03/2020 20:33
