    Only Fools And Horses

    That would be the actor whom my family will always call Charlie, because he played a character called Charlie in Brookside. I dunno his real name though. He was also a psychiatrist in an episode of 'Nightingales', in which it was revealed that "Ding Dong" Bell (played by David Threlfall) was a serial horse rapist... Philip McGough The OFAH character was Arnie in the episode "Chain Gang" - the one with the gold chains and bogus ambulances.

    Political Frailty

    Confirmed by BBC also Wikipedia states "At the time of his death, he was the oldest living former President of Cyprus" - not too many candidates for that title, I suspect. Not few enough to have a shining new oldest living former President of Cyprus, I guess. BTW, 94 ain't bad for a fat bloke. regards, Hein Clerides is the one on the right (if you ignore the chap in the blue Frank Spencer hat). The "fat bloke" you refer to is on the left and is Rauf Denktash who left us early last year, but he did reach 87, so not bad indeed!

    Alex Higgins (And Snooker)

    I think that leaves just Ray Reardon and Rex Williams still alive from the original eight Pot Black players. The others were Gary Owen, John Pulman, Fred Davis, Kingsley Kennerley and John Spencer.

Dead (aplologies if posted elsewhere) - I now see it was (in the "Hooroo, Mate" thread, but only 1 minute before this!)

    Ah, that explains why the name sounded familiar! It was his brother I was thinking of. Having said that, Steve did play nearly 500 games in the football league between 1969 and 1983, so not so obscure.
