"Famous" people only you remember
by Butterfield Sat Jul 11, 2020 6:26 pm
Christopher Lillicrap. I can't remember what he did but I remember seeing him on TV in I'd guess the 80s. Who could forget a name like that? It seems everyone else has.

He's a lot younger than I remember.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christopher_LillicrapLillicrap no longer performs in pantomime following his wife's stroke. Lillicrap lived for many years in Farnborough, Hampshire before moving to the Greek island of Symi, where he wrote his first novel, Midas, under the pseudonym Dominic Ranger, published by Matador in 2013.

Everyone - I mean EVERYONE!! - of my generation remembers Lillicrap.
What with him being a consummate children's entertainer and beguiling storyteller, obviously.

No recollection. Dominic Ranger - good choice. You would, wouldn't you. My mother went to school with a girl called Lilette - quite unfortunate when her classmates were turning 12/13.

Oh. I guess I knew him in the latter part of his TV career, before he vanished.

I was thinking about you just yesterday, when the news of the John Lewis Birmingham branch began filtering through Fleet Street.

Because you're only about 12 despite acting like you're in your early 60s.
What's the point of anyone posting anything if you can just claim legitimately that you can't remember it because you were a kid.
It's like me rolling my eyes at my Godsons because they can't remember Rod Hull & Emu's Pink Windmill.

'Rod Hull and Emu's Pink Windmill Show' is an anagram of 'Shun Dammnn Rod H. Opus Dei Wwill Kill' - a cryptic warning from the secretive Catholic propaganda group to keep away from the roof of Rod Hull's house in 1999.
