When I was googling on this subject a few months ago I eventually found the dates 1945-1987, so he was either 41 or 42 - but it did not give more specific dates.
Michael Stanniforth, who played Timothy Claypole, wrote the theme tune. The original title planned for "Rentaghost" was "Second Chance", but this was not chosen as it was thought it might not appeal to children. His original song had to be re-written as concern grew that it was too close to The Exorcist. If your mansion house needs haunting Just call Rentaghost We've got freaks and fools and creeps and ghouls At Rentaghost Hear the phantom of the opera Sing a haunting melody Remember what you see is not a mystery At Rentaghost Crime writer, Lynda La Plante appeared in "Rentaghost" as Miss Popov's cousin, Miss Novak.
