Locked Out

Re:recognise this man anyone? 15 Years, 6 Months ago

Immediately recognisable, even with much less hair. Anyone know how he is these days? I know he was pretty badly flaked by his emotional ups and downs- at one point almost totally institutionalised. The picture does appear to be a very recent one and it's nice to see him smiling again. I wish him Good Fortune On The Road.

Looks like Richard O'Sullivan, but I don't understand the Cliff Richard clue. Enter code here Please note: although no board code and smiley buttons are shown, they are still usable.

Sadly you're too young to remember The Young Ones Denise. You probably think it was a TV series! Enter code here Please note: although no board code and smiley buttons are shown, they are still usable.

I have seen The Young Ones movie, but didn't realise Richard O'Sullivan was in it. Oddly enough, if you'd said Carry On Teacher I would have seen the connection. Mostly I know him from Man About The House and Me and My Girl. I was never a fan of The Young Ones TV show. Not my thing at all.

Isn't age a terrible thing. I do recall swithcing over to Top Of The Pops and watching a bright young thing strutting his stuff to It Only Takes A Minute and then switching back to ITV to watch O'Sullivan galavanting about with his trousers round his ankles in a flat with two dolly birds. Now two pot bellied balding old reprobates. And that's just the dolly birds.

But his best show was reviving his character from Man About the House in the series "Robin's Nest". A great cast with Tony Britten, (great actor, and Fern's dad), Tessa Wyatt, (very easy on the eye. Previouisly married to the original king of the jungle, Tony Blackburn), and the most inspired character of the lot, David Kelly, (the one-armed washer-upper!)

Poor guy has suffered from ill health and depression in recent years but is having a better time of it being looked after at Brinsworth House - the actors retirement home. I think 'Fluff' Freeman and Charlie Drake spent their last days there. Enter code here Please note: although no board code and smiley buttons are shown, they are still usable.

Yes - people speak very highly of this home for old entertainers... I may apply there myself when I am old but fear I may be rejected as not being entertaining.

I wonder, do they have a home for retired old vile perverts?

I suppose neighbours would burn it down.

Ah well, life is so complicated.

I only realised after seeing the 'teacher.jpg' bit, it must be some reunion for Carry On Teacher!

Where did you get this photo? I used to love Richard O'Sullivan in Man about the House. I know he had a stroke a few years ago and feel very sad for him, he's only about 63 and should have many more yearsa before going into a retirement home.
