Darowyn Do Brits remember George Formby? (155* d) RE: Do Brits remember George Formby? 18 Sep 11


George Formby is still well remembered in TT Racing circles. (That's a motorcycle race around the Isle of Man, if you are outside the UK)
His film, 'No Limit' is still shown every year in TT week, and a regular competitor in a strange little motorcycle competition called 'The Northwich Thundersprint' turns up every year on a replica of the Shuttleworth Snap, George's home built racer. He rides dressed as George's character from the film, to the accompaniment of "Riding in the TT Races" on the PA.
Cheers
Dave
