Just Googled it and it is David Essex.

So the bathroom mirror is not telling me fibs.

Perhaps it is time for me to wear fully elasticated wastes, wear my trousers at half mast and carry plastic rain hoods in my handbag :-S

I was expecting what I saw as David has been on tv progs over the years so watched him age gradually. Funny how we accept ourselves ageing but not stars and people we heroworshipped/adored/ fancied etc etc when we were younger lol

I do hate that Dr whose daughter is married to Tamwar, he's another one like Denise's previous husband, sly and manipulative.

Liz he is a 'rat bag' lol. He was to marry ??? whatshername Tamwars mum,thats why all the bother with his Dad.

You do get a shock when you see stars age.
Mel Gibson hasnt done too badly...looks that is. Clint Eastwood used to be a hunk but now he loks more like 'Clyde' his pet ape in ???films lol

Years while looking at our wedding photo,my son said 'oh you looked quick fanciable in those days' pmsl.

Ah the lovely David Essex.

I saw him singing at the Finsbury Park Astoria in about 1966. He was just a support act for the Small Faces.

He had a mop of hair and wore a suit. Before he went into West End Musicals.

Liked him because he was pretty, but a bit dangerous at the same time. :-)

Ooooh hello Marion. :-)

I hope that something cheers Ronnie up.

I think they need a bit of new blood in the show, the more established characters are getting a bit stale, and the stories a bit jaded.

Neverthless I love June Brown. I think her portrayal when Jim was taken into care was heartbreaking.

Rita, Samantha Womack was on The One Show yesterday, talking about South Pacific.

It opens at The Barbican, then goes on tour around the country.

They got a satellite link to America, and she spoke with Mitzi Gaynor who was in the film South Pacific in the 1950's.

Mitzi looked great, although I think she may have had a little work done.

You said in your post that..."So that leaves only June Brown who plays Dot to carry on the "original" female cast and she is 84".....


All i said was the Pam wasn't an original
