Gordon R Posted January 26, 2015 Report Share Posted January 26, 2015 I was stunned when his age was announced. I thought he was at least 10 years older. Never my cup of tea, with his rather weak, warbling voice. That said, I never heard a bad word about him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mick miller Posted January 26, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 26, 2015 It was the hair, all the rage in the 1970's, just look at vintage Connery as Bond, man boobs and a chest wig. I keep waiting for that 'fashion cycle' to come back around but sadly I think the wheels buckled and the chain broke sometime around 1985...
