It was through some kind of adoption? I recently discovered, Joy. After I had announced on my Alphabetical Songs Thread that they were half-brothers. I shall have to look it up again.

Brian developed heart problems after alcohol and drug taking in his young years. Even though he had long since given them both up, he paid the price poor man! :-(

Fly, I only discovered it last night when someone asked when 'Taggart' died. When I googled the date was when I discovered the connection between The two of them.

You're gonna have a laugh at this :-D

When I was still at school I adored Robert Mitchum. <3 One of Dad's mates looked very much like him .... swoon.

Did not know that Joy :-)

1944 for me Belle but I do remember moody-looking James Dean. :-)

You mentioned Brian Connolly of The Sweet; did you know that his brother was Mark McManus who played Taggart? Both died in their fifties.

No, I remember them both Joy, but I was small. I was born in 1957.

Another who's looks improved when he got older imo ... Adam Faith!

Remember him in Budgie?

JemimaFawr Report 3 Jul 2016 12:14

oh yes! Poor Marc Bolan!

It was David Essex for me! Unlike David Cassidy he has aged really well <3

oooh and Paul Nicholas and the blonde one from Sweet - Brian Connolly!

Donny got better looking as he got older :-D :-D :-D

A bit too late for me Belle, though he was a looker in his time. :-D

Adam Faith now ..... <3 Though he died relatively young, as did Billy Fury.

Both before your time I think. :-D

I know! and I'm not keen on Tennis either. But each to his own.

OH will watch everything ... darts, snooker, golf (another boring one to watch), bowls, womens footy you name it ... he'll watch it!

But then he's a Telly Addict full stop! :-| :-| :-|
