Suzanne - I remarked to OH that Engel looked like a walking zombie. Sue I think those two have more in them than Engel!!!

Send Bruce Forsyth and Des O'Connor on with Engle and it will be like the golden oldie brothers....

did you see poor old englebert in the mail yesterday?
not sure he will have the energy to do the eurovision.looks like he could do with a good old rest. :-)

Mike. The Leicester Lad is right

He was awarded an Honorary degree by Leicester University for his TIRELESS charity work and services to his home city. He was particularly interested in tuberculosis which he had had himself at the age of 23 after his army service.

He wasn't really my taste, but I remember some people loved his music. In a quiet way with his charity work he has done far more for others in his lifetime than I have. I do respect him for that and wouldn't dream of poking fun at him.

throws bloomers at englebert



and the fadgies and stotties barm cakes and the bread rolls to

OMG.
do you all agree with me now that this is personal? i mentioned bloomers in a funny way,didnt someone mention corsets?did that get RRd?of course not.
ive been saying for wks that this RRing is personal and lots of people have disagreed,but you realy cant disagree now can you.x :-D

Jedward this year, Dustin the Turkey a few years ago, think R.T.E. are deliberately sending non singers to avoid winning again.That way we (the tax payer won,t have to pay for hosting it again.
If my grandson behaved like the two mammy,s boys that are repesenting us do i would be sugesting where my daughter might bring him to get help.
I loved Engelbert when i was a teenager, still love Cliff.

Betty,

I mentioned CoRSETS,oooooooh. ;-) ;-)

Just looked back on Suz post,and yes your right Kay,
Suz hadnt put anything wrong at all,good humour,nothing offensive.
Seems rather strange,perhaps its someone with a grievance.
Not nice at all. :-S :-S :-S

I think she mentioned BLOOMERS

Scandalous :-P

why has Suz post been RR'd again..........

this is getting beyond the joke,

:-P :-|

My Nan used to love Engelbert ..... she died in 1981 :-(.

We are obviously going for the sympathy vote

Just googled him, and there is a picture of him with grey hair,
still it happens to us all at some stage. ;-) ;-) ;-)

I thought he was grey now?
saw a picture of him recently without his black sideburns,only grey. :-D

hes been dying his hair black since he was 20,bit like me,i started dying my hair age 18 in 1981.x :-D

My dear Granny used to love him singing The Last Waltz,
I didnt realise he was still singing,
hope his voice can withstand it all.lol!!!
my he's lasted a long time. :-D :-D :-D

has he !!!!,,,the dirty old sod...he looks so innocent aswell.......but perhaps the lifts and nips and tucks have disguised the real him,,,,,,, :-D :-D..

and the hair........ :-S :-S :-S,,,,,,nice an easy,,,,,,, ;-)

Lol,this thread is funny,especially Kay's comment,
"BET THE WOMEN DONT THROW THEIR FRILLIES AT HIM NOW",
most probably they would throw their corsets. :-D

Please please do not let him have orange skin. Is there a European Law which dictates we HAVE to enter this contest????

for a *star* hes kept a good clean record that I can see,,,,no scandal,,,,

but gorrrd 75,,,,,hes the oldest on the circut still doing the rounds,bet the women dont throw their frillies at him now,
