I only knew her as Miss Brahms in Are You Being Served.

I'm sorry to hear that some other celebrity has died while the death of thousands of other human-beings go unnoticed.

The media portrays the death of such 'stars' as the end of someone who has contributed a great deal to sheeple-kind..., i.e. maintaining them in a fuckin' trance :mad:

A rather bizarre quote from Terry Wogan...

Broadcasting veteran Sir Terry Wogan said the star would be remembered as one of the greats of British television.

He added: "In the 60s and 70s, she was the queen of the sitcom and I'm sorry to hear she's gone."

Sorry for anyone who suffers the way that Wendy Richards did, but she was a less than modest actress who is remembered for Miss Brahms and Pauline Fowler. One of the greats? The queen of sitcom in the 60'2 and 70's? :confused:

Are You Being Served was rather (very) poor, but...

there was this... :rolleyes:

No way!

I lived through the 1970's and they didn't have gays back then... :rolleyes:

There were rumours about Larry Grayson, but his friend Everard was quick to come to his defence... :D

Maybe DI subliminally nicked the title of his book "I Am Me, I Am Free" from Mr Humphries catchphrase "I'm free!"

That's the best I've got.

Well I raised a point in Cameron thread re End of Times prophet stating there'll be lots of natural deaths of celebs at the beginning (of the end) & this fact, when it presents itself, is to be recognised as proof of his authenticity - but nobody took me on - same as they didn't when I posted original thread on his book - so I can't be bothered explaining it again - my pet lip's out.

It's relevant to the forum because this is what the mainstream media are pushing.

I don't watch TV, but it is interesting to get an idea of what messages they are putting across.

In this case there are also the incredible distortions about Wendy Richard's achievements.

Eastenders, which I didn't watch very much, was clearly a vehicle for social manipulation. Don't underestimate the power of TV, Film, newspapers, etc.

When we see through and expose the lies and bullshit we get closer to the truth.

And when people become disillusioned with the mainstream they are more likely to look for alternative news. This is perhaps one reason why the mainstream is obliged to tell more and more of what is really going on, to avoid losing all their credibility...

And the closer we get to the truth, the more truth they have to expose... ;)
