We'll have matey Dave complaining about this thread and Anglo it wasn't trust me.
Not at all. Keep it up Graham.
Sorry; I was being a pedantic churl.
Don't stop Anglo's fun Graham.
I was basing it on having female officials but understand the your traditional thinking.
They weren't outnumbered. Four men and four women. Probably six men and four women if you count M.C. and referee.
Even possibly nine men and four women if you count seconds and timekeeper (although, admittedly, they wouldn't have been in the dressing room)
Paul and Eddie outnumbered by the women on that show. Must have been fun in the dressing room!
It was indeed Andre the Giant andvwevwetevall young then,incidentally there was a Clevelys show in the evening as well.
Given the choice, the Best show with Logan/Ginsberg wins. Ferre - surely not Andre.....or was it? That must have been a rather young Johnny South as well?
She "gifted" the name to Jane when she decided to become "Hellcat" Haggetty. Prior to that Jane had been working primarily as Big Bertha and, occasionally, Klondyke Jane.
Cath who was Jack Cassidys daughter.
Any ideas as to who this version of Klondike Kate was? It's obviously a good ten years or so before Jane Porter adopted that moniker.
Another Riot Squad.
Which came first, the chicken or the two eggheads?
