After we mentioned it in another thread the other day I just noticed they are showing some archive footage on ITV4 at 9:45 tonight. But who?

[SpiritoftheFloyd]

That's Kendo Nagasaki or as his mum knew him Peter Thornley

[MichaelJH Heart Star in reply to SpiritoftheFloyd]

Or maybe MichaelJH? 🤣🤣🤣

[SpiritoftheFloyd in reply to MichaelJH]

Who knows! He also never actually spoke directly when interviewed but had a sidekick who he spoke through.

[MichaelJH Heart Star]

He was frequently on ITV Wrestling. I couldn't fit Big Daddy in!

[Thanksnhs]

It's not Billy two rivers 😀

[MichaelJH Heart Star in reply to Thanksnhs]

The program started with Billy Two Rivers and it did not say it was a repeat. Are you psychic? 😱

[Thanksnhs in reply to MichaelJH]

Hehe I so wish I was, a lottery win would be good

Hi Michael, don’t know if you received my last message - just wondered how you were - are you home yet with your new prosthesis? Hope you are doing well - I dreamt about you last night! (randomly) I think it was all those dreadful jokes you posted that were keeping me awake!!

Anyway very best wishes to you, C xx

[MichaelJH Heart Star in reply to Ceo1]

Hi... Sorry for the delay in replying. I am generally OK. Initially I had issues with the prothesis when the wound opened up on the left. It's healed now but still a little fragile! Still in rehab but they want to move me to a care home! 😕

[Ceo1 in reply to MichaelJH]

So you are still in hospital? Poor you - although be careful about being moved to a care home - my father was moved from hospital with the promise that he would have physio every day - in fact the care home couldn’t provide that at all and he went downhill rather than showed any improvement!

Eek - the picture has changed - now it's Giant Haystacks

[Thanksnhs]

Giant haystack

[Slloydt]

Didn't Kendo Nagasaki always wear a mask? It looks like Giant Haystacks or Michael doung a good impersination.

[Jiqbal75]

I used to watch wrestling on Saturday afternoons on ITV and remember Giant Haystacks fighting Big Daddy on numerous occasions. I could never figure out why he always lost, Surely he must have wanted to win now and then. That's entertained for you..😀😀😀

[Hidden]

Giant haystacks!!! Did you know he used too weigh 48 stone.... that’ll be me after lockdown 😂

[Pippa80]

My gran used to love watching wrestling but she used to get so worked up and was literally jumping up and down and waving her fists about, not to mention her language!

However, she had severe angina and was banned from watching it in the end.

Also like that when watching football, Derby County.I used to get embarrassed when I went with her!

[SpiritoftheFloyd]

OK I give up! Who's that? is it a wrestler or is it a trick question?

[Hidden]

Pat Roach

[080311]

That’s Pat Roach use to watch him in Auf Wiedersehen Pet think his name was ‘Bomber’ ?

[Prada47]

Just looking at the eye brows thought it was a Ford Consul, but on reflection could be a Sunbeam Rapier, then the colours look Ford .

[MichaelJH Heart Star in reply to Prada47]

I think the photo was taken in Cuba where they filmed a later series of "Auf Wiedersehen Pet". The car looks like a fifties Yank but I haven't worked out which one! 🤔

[MichaelJH Heart Star]

No guesses. It's over 24 hours since the picture changed. I would have thought Hidden or Thanksnhs would know.
