Charlottechicken Posted July 1, 2009 Share Posted July 1, 2009 Just heard the actor Karl Malden has died, he was 97. Mollie Sugden has also passed away. It's not a good week. I used to watch Karl Malden in Streets of San Francisco when I was little. RIP Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted July 1, 2009 Share Posted July 1, 2009 I've never heard of him but I'm sorry to hear about Mollie Sugden. She always reminded me of my granny - who has the same way with words and used to have a similar look about her. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snowy Posted July 1, 2009 Share Posted July 1, 2009 I used to watch Karl Malden in Streets of San Francisco when I was little. I havent a clue who he is im afraid but the OH wants to know it he was the fella with the big nose? I couldn't remember his name, but OH knew of him straight away and said he was the one with the funny nose. Very sad about Mollie - a lovely lady.

Egluntyne Posted July 1, 2009 Share Posted July 1, 2009 the OH wants to know it he was the fella with the big nose? It is. 97? Blimey. I remember when I was very small, listening to the radio at Sunday lunchtime and Molly Sugden was Jimmy Clitheroe's mum in the Clitheroe Kid. I thought it the funniest thing ever. It was a more innocent age. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ain't Nobody Here Posted July 1, 2009 Share Posted July 1, 2009 I remembered Karl Malden straight away . I had no idea he was that old . Shame about Mollie Sugden too . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charlottechicken Posted July 2, 2009 Author Share Posted July 2, 2009 I havent a clue who he is im afraid but the OH wants to know it he was the fella with the big nose? Yes! I only remember his name because his nose had a big impact on me as a child (the things you remember ) Ever since then I have called any similar nose a "Karl Malden" Not surprising then that most folk don't know what I am on about Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WarrensWorld Posted July 2, 2009 Share Posted July 2, 2009 Shame about Mollie Sugden, she used to have us in stitches..... Karl Malden, we used to call him 'bum nose'. Sorry Karl still 97 that's a fair old age. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chickencam Posted July 2, 2009 Share Posted July 2, 2009 They showed Millie Sugden on BBC Breakfast this morning with Wendy Richard in Are You Being Served and of course they are both now R.I.P Very funny actress. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seagazer Posted July 2, 2009 Share Posted July 2, 2009 Oh bless - I knew of both of them. Karl Malden more from Streets of San Francisco with Michael Douglas and we always used to watch Are you Being Served? But they got to really good ages.

Valkyrie Posted July 2, 2009 Share Posted July 2, 2009 Ditto to Seagazer. When Karl Malden was bad - he was horrible, but loved him in that part. I was chatting about this with mum in the car this morning and how Mollie was such a character. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
