I actually met the wonderful Mr Jack Warner on three occasions. Twice at CH - He had a nephew there. His sisters were Elsie & Doris Walters, (Gert & Daisy). .... and once at a Police Charity 'do' in Surrey, where he recognised me from our previous meetings at CH. A lovely man !!Euterpe13 wrote:I knew that I could count on you, Mary ! Remind me never to play you at Trivial Pursuit....
Incidently, the Dixon series was spawned from the Film, 'The Blue Lamp', where he was shot dead by an up and coming young actor in his first film, Dirk Bogarde !!
John Rutley. Prep B & Coleridge B. 1958-1963.
