Bantambabe Posted May 19, 2009 Share Posted May 19, 2009 This is from his show in Glasgow last Thursday. http://www.eveningtimes.co.uk/largeimage.php?imid=1101949 Apparently he called out to his mum (who's always in the audience - and actually dances on stage with him and his dad in their homage to Scotland and Musical Theatre ) "Thank God you always told me to wear clean underwear!" before scuttling off to change. Might explain why he spent last night hitching his trousers up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Egluntyne Posted May 19, 2009 Share Posted May 19, 2009 A touch of the PJ Proby's there. Those of us of a certain vintage will remember that PJP was denounced from pulpits across the land and seen as a major threat to society! :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those of us of a certain vintage will remember that PJP was denounced from pulpits across the land and seen as a major threat to society! :D He married a girl in my class at school when she was 16!! He'd been renting a farm cottage from her family and they "fell in love" and got married in Mexico, I think. She wore a large engagement ring to school and was told not to wear it again as it was against school rules A few years later, she turned up on some show which Noel Edmunds presented about the 70s, as his wife and I remember her sitting in the audience holding a giant gonk!! Do you think this constitutes my claim to fame?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Omletina Kyckling Posted May 19, 2009 Share Posted May 19, 2009 Wow! I know someone who knows someone who is married to someone famous! I may be wrong, but I suspect you know someone who knows someone who WAS married to someone famous...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Patricia W Posted May 19, 2009 Share Posted May 19, 2009 I love this forum - where else would you get PJ Proby ( loved his hair) and gonks.... As for links - we ought to try that theory that we are all connected in six moves. Here goes- Egluntine - do you remember the 1966 World Cup when the German team were playing in Sheffield? They used the University sports facilities to practise in and two of them got lost near my school in Fullwood... but that's a long story.. ( won't mean anything to the young ones) Tricia Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A chickychickychick-ENN!! Posted May 21, 2009 Share Posted May 21, 2009 He's famous for dropping his trousers on set. I'm sure he wasn't embarrassed! Nice view... He's appparently going to be in La Cage Aux Folles in the West End. Saw it in the papers today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bantambabe Posted May 21, 2009 Author Share Posted May 21, 2009 Thank you chickychickychick-ENN for coming back to the point! I was beginning to feel my thread had been hijacked by non-JB-lovers. Hmm, might have to book a theatre trip to London for my birthday in Nov. Don't know how many of those shiny suits he has though - they're not very flattering - prefer a pair of levis me.
