Remember this funny Guy From MI who was a big hit on Both sides of the Pond?

Post people who made it big or Flopped badly on TV

You've a good memory! Monteith himself only got three seasons on BBC TV, from 1978, according to his 'wiki'.

Trying to think of American comedians who appear here. Rich Hall does; he had an amusing series on a hobby of his, angling, and has a niche career on QI; as does Reginald D Hunter.Ruby Wax lives here amd may well be unknown or forgotten in America.And Jackie Mason makes his annual visit, like a visiting dignitary (and quite right too!)

Reason I posted this was I Came across a name on British TV what rang a Bell and If my memory serves me right they pulled this guy off the Holiday camps/club scene .All round entertainer/impersonator Your friend and mine...Mr Paul Squires!
Who they launched directly with a sketch show at Prime time and it flopped and his TV career was gone in 2 years

What he writes about website building:

quote:

I don’t think I’ll ever get this web site up. I’ve been working on it for most of the summer and if anyone has gone to the old one, all they get is an ‘under construction’ sign. As if a bunch of wee people are banging and hammering away inside my computer, building sets, working frantically to get ready for opening night.
