Saw Audrey in Sainsburys the other day - She didn't look too upset. In fact she was having a coffee with Alan Bradley. Thought he was dead... Did you know everyone in the street is less than four foot tall btw? Cheers DtG |

He will be sadly missed but with his lifestyle (weight, smoking, drinking) his demise was hardly unexpected. At least it saves the viewer from having to speculate on what he might have got up to on honeymoon. |

What I hate about you Englanders is that you can talk behind our backs while we Americans are looking straight at you. Thanks for giving us somewhat of an explanation, Jon. You're a kind and generous gentleman. -Joe, still puzzled, partly- (and I haven't understood a British TV show since The Avengers went off the air) "Be happy, I say be happy." |

14 Oct 06 - 08:31 AM (#1858586) Subject: RE: Obit: Fred Elliot, I say, Fred Elliot From: Duke I have been watching Corrie for many, many years and I thought this post was about the actor who played Fred and that he had died. By the time I figured it all out, I had read too much! In England, you are months ahead of us in Canada. Sure blew some surprises for us! |

I say below the line as well and happen to know that the team do regularly scan obits to see if there is anything to do with music in it. Cheers DtG |

14 Oct 06 - 09:08 AM (#1858608) Subject: RE: Obit: Fred Elliot, I say, Fred Elliot From: Bernard Here in Blighty, the daily newspapers blow the 'plot' (if that isn't too strong a word! Miaoww!) long before the programme airs... so much so that the programme makers now record at least two different outcomes each time, and not even the actors know until it is aired which version will be screened. What worries me, though, is how seriously some people take these things... it's fiction, after all!! ;0) |
