jayjayoghani Posted July 26, 2025 Posted July 26, 2025 Sorry to hear about Ray French. Not really my game but his voice on Saturday afternoon Grandstand reminds me of my youth. Liked the way he said Emosi Koloto. Quote
Tonge moor green jacket Posted August 4, 2025 Posted August 4, 2025 Can't say I know much about Whale, other than decades ago he was a bit controversial and often rude to guests. Seems to have been appreciated though- others in the public eye have offered positive comments. Quote

In my college hols I had a job with an undertakers and was called out in the middle of the night to pick up a "bod"... got there and the family had called us before the doctor... Doctor greeted me outside... "she's not dead yet but don't go home, if you park up over there I'll come and get you"... so there I was in a pub car park listening to James Whale waiting for an old girl to pop her clogs! Quote

Aye, top mon. "Hero" gets bandied about far too often but he was the real deal, and by all accounts a cracking bloke as well. Quote

You're travelling 2000+ mph, you're 200,000 miles from the earth, the the 13 cubic m craft you're in has just blown up and thus you're not sure exactly what direction you're going in. Response: "Houston, we had a problem". They must have needed the whole Saturn V power just to get his balls off the ground. Quote
