Has been known to string a few words together, sometimes in the right order, and get paid money for it.

Remembering Bonnie Tyler’s brilliantly random advert for Jaffa Cakes today.

One of the wackiest things ever broadcast on TV.

Rest in peace

@ScottMcCreaWest In the early 1940s when Leslie was trying to sell the Saint to radio one pitch document described Fernack as "Eugene Pallette type"

@ScottMcCreaWest @DavidHe17795964 Audrey Charteris talked fondly of Conway, saying his off-screen persona was just like his on-screen persona, charming easy going.

@John_Barach @ScottMcCreaWest Unfortunately, at the moment, Paramount won't let anything Saintly be published...

[Ian Dickerson @IanDickerson]

@John_Barach @ScottMcCreaWest Much as it pains me to say this, they are all available on Amazon...

[Ian Dickerson @IanDickerson]

@ScottMcCreaWest @John_Barach I'm contemplating publishing some of the scripts for the old shows...if Paramount don't stop me.

[Ian Dickerson @IanDickerson]

@ScottMcCreaWest @John_Barach Yeah, I've got stuff like the script he wrote for "The Saint in Palm Springs" that got rejected by RKO, more material on early Saint radio shows and well, more of lots of stuff.

[Ian Dickerson @IanDickerson]

@ScottMcCreaWest @John_Barach That's very kind. Currently working on a second edition of that, plus a second edition of my Saint on Radio book as well.

[Ian Dickerson @IanDickerson]

@ScottMcCreaWest @John_Barach I must try one of them. Where do i start?

[Ian Dickerson @IanDickerson]

@ScottMcCreaWest @John_Barach Does anyone write spy romps any more?

Dan Aykroyd's dancing is epic, insane and beyond amazing. 45+ years later it is still over the top enjoyable. And the sheer amount of talent on that small stage is staggering.

The Blues Brothers (John Belushi and Dan Aykroyd) perform “Soul Man.” [Season 4, 1978]

[Ian Dickerson @IanDickerson]

@BennLiska Thanks. I'll have a listen. Intrigues as to where you got the idea Leslie liked the film version...he really didn't.

[Ian Dickerson @IanDickerson]

@BennLiska The artwork looks nice but I'm guessing from the clothes and the date on The Baycombe Bugle you've brought it into the 21st century...?

[Amy @20th_Centurygal]

You can’t convince me this isn’t the original music...😂🎶

[Ian Dickerson @IanDickerson]

@ScottMcCreaWest Stuart Walker was a friend of Leslie Charteris. Can't help but wonder if that's why there's a character called Mrs Charteris in this film...

[Ian Dickerson @IanDickerson]

@clarkson83465 I saw Josie Gibson on something at the weekend where she learnt what lardons are and had a snigger over it's proximity to a word that I'm too much of a gentleman to question. ITV are clearly rewarding people with no talent and no intelligence with a TV show...

[Ian Dickerson @IanDickerson]

@CameronYardeJnr Deep down we know that Paddy McGuiness is the touch of death for established shows such as Top Gear, Question of Sport, Inside the Factory...to kill one show could be considered careless, to kill more...?

[Ian Dickerson @IanDickerson]

Absolutely love this...

Max Bygraves on Jimmy Tarbuck’s Christmas All-Stars (1983). Here’s the grand old man of showbiz (Who was probably younger than I am now, here) giving it to the establishment.
