Scout said...: Wait, I just read Lynn's comment. Seriously, Lynn? He was pretty aged by then and not nearly as attractive as his younger scoundrel self. I'm jealous, though.; 9 Feb 2007, 04:28:00
Sassy Sundry said...: These days, he'd be jailed for ten.; 9 Feb 2007, 04:38:00
Cheltenhamdailyphoto said...: Seriously, Robyn. Older yes, but very good looking still and extremely charming. I told him i was into acting and he advised me against it, saying 'do a proper job, i've just been lucky'. He was filming a tv series, can't remember the name, with Deborah Kerr whom i was also privileged to be with for that short time. I have photos! Perhaps i'll post them on my Things UK if you'd be interested? Sorry, Old K, banging on here about all this on your blog.; 9 Feb 2007, 10:04:00
