A very compassionate and respectful video. Well done to you, sir. You and I are obviously from the same generation - ITV Saturday afternoons dominated by Giant Haystacks, Big Daddy, Kendo Nagasaki, Jackie 'TV' Pallo, cauiflower-eared Mick McManus, Les Kellett, British Bulldog, Fit Finlay, Mark Rocco - the list is a long one. All presented by Dickie Davies with perfect commentary courtesy of Kent Walton. It was only recently that I was informed that DD had a monumental moustache. I actually thought that he was permanently eating a cat. Simpler, more innocent times. I can't help feeling that we've lost so much.Thanks again for the lovely upload. Best wishes from Derbyshire. EDIT - how could I not mention Jim Breaks? The constant threat of the 'Breaks Special' hold struck abject fear into every opponent.
Thanks for that lovely comment. There were some names I'd forgotten but, Les Kellett was MY hero....comedy gold in the ring, and tough as nails! Yes, it was our traditional Saturday, get the shopping done in the morning, then back for an afternoon with the TV 🙂. Wonderful memories. ☺️. Thanks again
I used to get free tickets to the Halifax civic theatre as a child and regularly watched big daddy catweezal giant haystacks ( those were the days. Hope you keeping well ( I am the chap who said hello in Hebden ) 👍
Just joined 😊Thank you for sharing 😊
Welcome 🙂 Hope you enjoy the channel, and thank you for watching 🙂
This brings back happy memories of me sitting in front of the TV, watching wrestling while playing with my Lego and waiting for my mum to make tea.
They were good days to grow up in definitely 😊 thanks for watching 🙂
