Does anyone remember Wilfred Pickles and his wife Mabel?!
Question: giving my age away here but do you recall Have a Go.
Answers: giving my age away here but do you recall Have a Go.
Yes - and Violet Carson ("Ena Sharples") was the pianist. The "Jackpot" was 37/6d - and if they were REALLY lucky, there would be something like a home-made meat pie and a bottle of home-brew "on the table".
Honestly, the crap we used to listen to - and even enjoy!
I used to work with somebody in the music business who knew WP quite well and apparently he was as tight as the proverbial fishes, and always wanted the money 'up-front' before he'd do anything - even his "charity work" all had to be paid for ! ! !
Put the money on the table, Mablel!
You bet I remember him. I remember the absolutely crap prizes. Amounts lke Two ponds four shillings!!
Remember the sig tune "Have a go Joe, come and have a go..." Then he used to talk about Mable on the table. Talk about double entendres!
