Old TV Series You Remember Fondly ...

[remember arthur mann]

You are correct, Barry Gray wrote the song and actually devised the series but Holliday sung it, incidentally he killed himself three years later...

Tex Tuckers voice was none other than Nicholas (sale of the century) Parsons........:-)

Of which Michael Holliday took over. Kenneth Connor taking the part of Dusty the (posh) talking dog.

Not seen this one mentioned yet .... The Holden Shot!!! I have to say I loved it with all 3 presenters I remember... Bob Monkhouse, Charlie Williams & Norma Vaughan. I believe there was a guy pre-Bob Monkhouse called Jackie Ray but I'll be honest I don't remember him.

Loved Monkhouse's "Bernie ..... the bolt" but I have to say that for sheer warmth Charlie Williams will always be my favourite!!



Notice I kept it clean and never mentioned the original sexy bimbo ...Anne Aston!!!
