Who is it?

[red750]

I have started this topic because there are bound to be a few that people can add. I'll start with this one. Who is this entertainer?

 

[Marty_d]

Pope John Paul II?

 

[red750]

No Marty, sorry.

[pmccarthy]

Willy Nelson?

[red750]

Not Willie,either.

[Jerry_Atrick]

Phil Collins is the top one...

 

Pope John Paul for # 2? [Oops hadn't realised that was a Marty response)

Yes Jerry, that's correct. This is how I remember him...

 

[Jerry_Atrick]

Yes.. I am a big fan.. still.. His body sadly has given way, but he is still a wry character - Sadly, his physical health has deteriorated to the point he can't hold a drumstick (I presume of both varieties).

C'mon fellas! Any ideas? I'll give you a hint, he's English, famous as a child actor, starred in at least one classic film and a relatively short kids TV series .. Any takers?

Yeah. I thought that if it was, he's gone badly to seed in the last year or two.

[red750]

No-one else appears keen to take a shot, so here it is. The chubby chappie is Burt Ward, who played Robin in the TV series Batman, with Adam West as Batman.

 

 

[red750]

Another old TV series actor. Flew as bombardier in a total of 44 combat missions in a B-25 aircraft over the Dutch East Indies and the Philippines in WWII. Decorations included the Bronze Star, Air Medal with Oak Leaf Cluster, Purple Heart, Good Conduct Medal, Asiatic-Pacific Campaign Medal with three service stars, Philippine Liberation Ribbon with one service star, and the World War II Victory Medal with Honorable Service Lapel Button.

 

After the war, appeared in a number of films and TV shows. Best known  as part of the cast of a regular TV comedy from 1964 - 1967. :

I have to fess up to cheating. I didn't recognise him. I thought 1964 to 1967 had to be Gilligan's Island, so tracked him down from there.

[red750]

Correct Willie. Russell Johnson.

 

 

[Old Koreelah]

This bloke also had an impressive war record, flying over 150 missions from northern Australia, over the Dutch East Indies, New Guinea, the Phillipines and other Pacific Islands. After the war he won two national Quiz shows.

 

[old man emu]

Edward Gough Whitlam

[Bruce Tuncks]

My father-in law knew him from his RAAF days and said that he was a real gentleman. In particular, he was good to the lowly guys.

Must have been a good bloke, his son was an axxhole
