Lance Percival - 81

He once did a turn at a company dinner dance. Before his act he had collected info about various directors and staff and then did a Calypso song about them.

I heckled him.

And also Rod Taylor at 84  http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-australia-30738498

I thought he was a damn good actor but somehow his Hollywood career never really carried through after that promising start

Brian Clemens - 83

One of the best TV writer and producers. Responsible for some great programmes in my formative years:

He used to live next door to Mrs ex-Baldy. Bit of a perv, offered their kid's nanny 50 grand to sleep with him a month before her wedding.  eeek: Used to see the likes of 'Bodie & Doyle' turn up for Sunday lunch, but more often aspiring actresses would be invited. Miss Lumley prolly knows his casting couch very well.  whistle:
