Technically that pic is really a '70s one, even though it could have been taken in '69.

**Thinks*Is Peter Wyngarde still with us?*Pops over to Wiki to find out**

Yep, 84 this year. Could be one for the Death Pool thread.

Funny how Department S and Jason King have become semi-iconic shows when the both only ran for one series.

He is actually gay - which I did not know.
Used to go by the sobriquet of Petunia Winegum within certain circles. Also had ten-year affair with Alan Bates.

Apparently, according Wiki.

Quote:
Bates had numerous homosexual relationships throughout his life, including those with actors Nickolas Grace and Peter Wyngarde, and Olympic skater John Curry.[10] In 1994 Curry died from AIDS in Bates's arms.[10] Even when homosexuality was partially decriminalised in Britain in 1967,[11] Bates rigorously avoided interviews and questions about his personal life, and even denied to his male lovers that there was a gay component in his nature.[10] Throughout his life Bates sought to be regarded as a ladies' man or at least as a man who, as an actor, could appear attractive to and attracted by women.


When was Bates gay or when did he have the affair? From 1956 onwards if the latter.

I'll have to go back and look at that nude wrestling scene with Oliver Reed from Women in Love to see whether Bates has a semi on. Never knew he was on the other bus.

Mind you the rumour was that Bates and Reed would both - ahem - manipulate their members between takes to ensure they presented a virile image for the scene.

The rumour I heard (I think from Ollie himself) was that they both were a bit self-conscious about appearing a little shall we say shrivelled on screen, and also neither of them wanted to upstage (so to speak) the other, so they tried to make them of roughly equal size.

I also heard one about Una Stubbs. To look at her you'd think butter wouldn't melt but apparently...

How would that work? I've now got a (disturbing) mental image of him vigorously doing a pal in the wrong 'un, while saying 'Im not gay, you know....'

Certain newspaper columnists do that every Friday night. Apparently. While munching on a scotch egg or two (not an euphamism).

I heard him tell that tale too. To overcome nerves they consumed a bottle of brandy before filming began. It was shortly after breakfast and they before rolled on to set rat-arsed.

If it's the one I heard I hope she's got a power shower in her house :lol:

Abernathy - If you look up coprophilia that should explain a lot.

No need for me to look it up, being a vocabulary nerd. But Una Stubbs? Shurely shome mishtake?

Can't you be more specific?

Seems very plausible that she liked shite. After all she went out with Cliff didn't she?
