Philip Madoc
Garage JoeGarage Joe
Extremely Fluffy Fluffy Thing Aww, I liked him. First I remember of him was as Magua, in The Last of the Mohicans on BBC in 1971. I don't really remember much about it though. [ more ]
El Loro I'm sorry to hear this - RIP Philip The first time I saw him on television was in 1964 in The Count of Monte Cristo (Alan Badel was Edmond Dantes/The Count) and Philip Madoc was Fernand, one of the three villains responsible for his imprisonment. There have been other adaptations but it is that one I remember most. [ more ]

We never got spoilers in the papers or magazines.

Why do people get scammed online (and give all their money away to strangers?)

Former Member Thanks for all the responses folks. Yep, still can't fathom why these people (usually women) fall for these scams. As someone said, when middle aged women have these young 20-something, gorgeous, young, fit men coming onto them from *insert relevant country* you have got to question why they believe they want them. I am 47 this year, and if some hot 25 year old guy came onto me, I would think he was taking the piss or it was a dare. I am not a hideous woman, but I don't look like Cheryl Cole... [ more ]
