Good ''old-fashioned'' light entertainment. Bruce Forsyth .... Jimmy Tarbuck ... Norman Vaughan ?

Yes Lynda, I am a Tiller Girl, lol in my dreams Christine x

Oh blimey we have a difference of opinion here, think you have yer la la's and yer da da's mixed :)) Jean I remeber Bruce forsythe, and jimmy tarbuck, but I'm sure there were others, bet my Nan, love her, would remember them all.

Think your right Joy, Norman vaughan, he had the catch phrase 'dodgy' didn;t he? Your not my Nan are you Joy :)))

Erm, no, Lynda, we know one another reasonably well, I think, but not that well ! :-) Catchprases are interesting, I'd forgotten that one ''dodgy''. Now what happened to Norman Vaughan, I wonder.

Lynda I can remember David Whitfield most of all from that show he was on it so often and he was a lovely tenor! Dxx

David Whitfield:)))).....takes me back to my youth. Had a really big crush on him. Saw him at Finsbury Park Empire a few times. Do you remember that Lynda? Jean x.

*Wonders if we will get on to The Billy Cotton Band Show next*

Lynda My sister and I got free tickets to see Sunday Night at the London Palladium.It was televised live then,we were teenagers and were so excited. Frankie Vaughan was the star of show,Bruce Forsyth was compere.We thought we were so cool. LOL It was the first time we'd been to London and we were on a weeks holiday.The gameshow all seems very old-fashioned to us now! Happy memories though. Mau ;0))))))))

'Left hand down a teensy weensy little bit'

What about Hancocks half hour, we still listen to that, we get tapes from the library. Maureen I bet you felt so grown up, going to the theatre with a mate :))

Yes Lynda we felt real grown up.Wearing our'duster coats' and winkle picker shoes lolol Frankie Vaughan was lovely, we met him once at our local boys/girls club. He did a lot for youngsters in the 1950s and 60s. Real down to earth guy.no edge to him at all. Mau x ;0)

Hi Maureen, when I used to buy and make jewellery, I used a supplier who's whole workforce idolised Frankie Vaughan, there were pictures of him everywhere, and wherever he was on they would go and see him. They had all met him and said what a wonderful caring man he was. Lynda

I am WAY too young for this thread to mean anything to me ;-P Maz. XX
