Thanks Wallace for the new thread!

Iā€™ve had a quick flick through my books on Old Hollywood:

1. As a young performing child, Shirley Templeā€™s mother would kick her out of bed late at night to dance and sing at Hollywood parties. If the youngster complained or missed a step, she would get beaten. As an adult she became a US ambassador.

2. She was also involved in a race controversy while performing with Bill Bojangles - they had to make sure their characters would never touch and there was a whole bunch of controversy when the fellaā€™s elbow brushed the child actress during a dance number down some stairs.

3. John Wayne was terrified that Stalin would have him assassinated during the Cold War. It was something the despot actually looked into. Randomly: anyone remember the movie in which six foot plus republican white guy Wayne played Genghis Khan? Probably banned now with current events, but should have been banned sooner for being so terrible and tone deaf. Wayne also dodged the draft on account of having too many children.

4. Frank Sinatra once tried to bully Dean Martin at a party. Martin promptly floored him with a single punch. Sinatra tried to get some of his gangster friends to rough up Martin, but they reminded him that unlike Sinatra, Martin being of Italian heritage and a favourite of their boss, meant that Martin was Sinatraā€™s own problem to sort out.

5. Dean Martin loved golf and would get up early for it, even calling in noise complaints against Rat Packā€˜s venues if his colleaguesā€™ partying woke him up.

6. Errol Flynn was discovered in his home country of Australia but he sold the ticket he was given out of the country so he could go partying instead. He had a few low level scrapes with the law and ended up being personally escorted on the journey by a studioā€™s agent to make sure he didnā€™t get distracted.

7. In Norman Wisdomā€˜s own autobiography, he boasted about using his small stature to pass himself off as a child for as long as he could so he could get away with groping women and sticking his head up their skirts.

Thereā€™s more nuggets about but those are the standouts so far.

I met the gorgeous Tom Hardy on a night out in Richmond a few years back. Me and my friends were waiting for a taxi outside the lovely restaurant Rock and Rose when Mr Hardy strolled past, dressed very inconspicuously, walking his two dogs. He stopped for a good chat and a few photos! Such a nice guy and even more handsome in real life although much shorter than I thought heā€™d be!

I tried to answer a post on the last thread and it wouldn't let me, saying a new thread had to be started. So I had to bite the bullet.
Just wish I'd checked for typos before posting šŸ¤­

I love Gary Barlow ā¤
Any tea on him?
One of my friends was a massive TT fan and used to hang around outside gigs and appearances. She said he slept with her when she was 14 or 15. Not sure how true it is but she was very discreet about it.

Imagine broaching it with a new partner... ā€œdarling, do you like cornflakes by any chance? Can you go get me a bowl of them?ā€

Does anyone remember when Keith Chegwin did Naked Jungle? Iā€™ve been trying to erase the image of his tiny penis flopping about from my mind ever since.
