Dennis Tanner back in Corrie eh?

[Bobbisox]

after all these years, aww Bless, he's a homeless Hobo now, I thought I knew his voice and the eyes were familiar too

[mrs.chappie]

I remember that, Arti. Something to do with a swimming pool and young girls. Can't remember if it was proven though. Can you?

[Arti]

...and Bert Tilsley....the actor got done for importuning in a gent's loo.

[Postdog]

He got dropped after the scandal and was written out as having been killed in a car crash whilst having an affair Rita knew nothing about

[Arti]

lol a lot, bobs. Took me a while, there :)

[Bobbisox]

and Ivy hit the bottle too, shame I liked Lynne Perry, she used to give Gail what for

[Bobbisox]

you did say..:o))))

[Arti]

No, Mrs C, I'm not sure it was proven about 'Len'. All I can remember was that whatever he was alleged to have done in the baths, he wasn't aware that there were underwater viewing panels built into the side of the pool.

[mrs.chappie]

I think Brian Tilsley (our Brian) went on to work at Peter Stringfellow's place, after he got stabbed in the street.

[Arti]

Lynne Perrie was getting too big for her boots and the final straw was when she got her lips filled, so they sacked her.

[Arti]

Chris Quentin (Brian) moved to the States to 'make it big' and married a US newscaster called Leeza Gibbons. They are not together now.

[Bobbisox]

or too little for her lips Arti :-)

[Arti]

I could chat all night about Corrie's past, but I gotta go and pick up my better half from work. See ya later.....cue end theme of Corrie :)

[Arti]

lol, yeah bobs ;)

[Bobbisox]

could be thread I think

"Soap stars past and present"
HA-HA

[bravejordy]

Chris Quinten had a very small part at the end of the first RoboCop movie as a reporter jotting down notes!

[Bobbisox]

Hi Scouser, how are you?

[bravejordy]

Great, thanks Bobbi. Hope you're okay too?

[bravejordy]

Anyone remember Dennis Tanner's mate, Walter Potts?

[Bobbisox]

ohhh, can't say as I do jordy

[bravejordy]

Walter Potts was a window cleaner who was "discovered" by talent scout Dennis Tanner in 1963, whereupon he launched a singing career under the name Brett Falcon. (just googled this!)
