    Osama Bin Laden and Colonel Gaddafi have gone fierce quite over the past 5 years.

    Guess the pair of them retired to a nice Carribean island to sip cocktails and relax after running their countries for so long.

    Hope Eamon Dunphy can track them down for a good interview about football someday soon.

    Who?

    Who????

    The poster gave you the actors real name. They stated the TV show he appeared in and his characters name in that show. What more do you want...his f**king date-of-birth and star sign?

    Biddy - If your not happy lever brothers will give you your money back :(


    She never was the same since she got hit with the tractor

    That was way more than 5 years ago!

    Anyway, "biddy" is on Newstalk pretty regularly for the past couple of years.

    I believe you may have missed the posters attempt at humour.

    The idea of the thread is to post about people who were household names but who have faded or disappeared from the view of the general public.

    By responding with 'who?' squod was reinforcing the idea by saying that he didn't know who that person was, hence they had disappeared from public view.

    Not worth getting angry over really.

    All of changing rooms and ground force people

    It was so much easier to blame it on Them. It was bleakly depressing to think that They were Us. If it was Them, then nothing was anyone's fault. If it was us, what did that make Me? After all, I'm one of Us. I must be. I've certainly never thought of myself as one of Them. No one ever thinks of themselves as one of Them. We're always one of Us. It's Them that do the bad things.
