I could be very wrong here but i think that might have been his wife/girlfriend at the time.

I just bet he gave himself that nickname. There's nothing remotely lupine about that ape. And what the hell is that thing to the left of him?

Zaph

OK folks, it's one thing discussing these people, whoever they are, but would you mind toning down the personal abuse, particularly with regard to their physical appearance, a bit please. Thanks.

George White

Yeah, she's quite attractive. In a statuesque Amazonian way.

Didn't podge and Rodge publicly decline his offer to appear on their show?

He actually asked to be on the show? I only heard of him through the Katy French thing. It's not like he's a celebrity in any sense of the word, I wouldn't even class him as a Z- lister.

George White

He only came to my light as a suspect. He's not famous. He just wanted to be.

Anyone remember Toni the Exotic dancer?

George White

Yes, she's been mentioned at least three times, and I don't see anything exotic about her.

in the 1980's in dublin that was as exotic as it got.

I've often wondered is that an urban myth? I first heard it in the mid 90's but the details of what happened to him are always vague. No one knows when he died or even if he is certainly dead. I've never come across anything official online, it's always online discussions about Bosco that it comes up.

A Hot Press article from 2007 refers to him as "the late Philip Tyler" but no mention of when/how he died

He was a face on the party scene back in the day..i believe he was openly gay and fond of the auld pharmaceuticals,but then who wasnt in those circles.

No idea how he died exactly but he was rumoured to be suffering from either MS or HIV,depending on who you spoke to. A pity just the same.

I think he does a good bit of radio work nowadays. I've certainly heard him credited on the Doc on One on Radio One.

yes unfortunately phillip did die in the late 1980s/early 1990s i think. Marian is on RTE radio 1 on saturdays with Playback. Frank Twomey occasionally turns up on Joe Duffy's Liveline "Funny Friday" as "Mary O'Rourke". As for the other, I don't really know.

You're right about Gertie. I remember her too!:)

Look at this "article " from the Ghastly Independent from 1999...Sycophantic,fawning,badly-written drivel.

Rags like this were actually encouraging the rise of people with no talent to become famous for the sake of it. Sickening.

How many million do they still owe the revenue?

The funny thing is: That article was "written" (may have been Terry Keane-style written, being the Indo) by Gayle Killilea, another pretty serious "victim" of the Celtic Tiger!
