Stars in Your EyesSeptember 20, 2003 Devised by Angela Danks and Deborah Flanagan Seventy members and guests attended our annual revue and supper evening. Fifteen brave souls entertained their friends and neighbours, daring us to guess, by means of a set of three clues, who they would be impersonating. The range covered everyone from names more familiar to grandparents to the very latest pop-stars and all stations in between. By means of an infallible high tech system, everyone managed to score maximum points and the result was an twelve way tie. |
Don Hussey as George Formby, |
Sally Stretton as Joyce Grenfell with two pieces chosen from that lady's extraordinary repertoire |
Pools win | Alan Watson as Lonnie Donnegan and "Rock Island Line" reprising his teens as a leader of a real skiffle group. Backed by Mike Jackson on guitar and Peter Unsworth on tea-chest bass. |
Mick Hawes as Spike Milligan, with a variety of Spike's poems and songs. | Penny Avery providing glamour as Marilyn Monroe and "Diamonds are a girl's best friend" |
One of the more difficult to guess items. Peter Unsworth with the policeman sketch by Rob Wilton |
