By day I am Arthur Crabtree - not a bad person - but at night, I become CHANDICO, a voracious sexual predator who promotes a wide range of goods, including after shave lotion, briefs and protein shakes.

Funnily enough, Arthur Crabtree was my dad's cousin. You aren't a cinematographer born around the turn of the last century just down the road from me on Bradford are you Vel?

I am not, Mitchell Downie, otherwise I'd be a feckin' vampire.
What kind of work could a cinematographer get at the turn of the century? Dole-ite IMO. |

By:
its only 9 years ago.

By:
Hold on - he was BORN just then - so he must have been a pioneer of sorts, that Arthur Crabtree fella.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Jump to: navigation, search Arthur Crabtree (b. 29 October 1900 in Shipley, Yorkshire, England, d. March 1975 in Worthing, Sussex, England) was a British cinematographer and film director. [edit] Cinematography His film career began in cinematography, with such credits as the Will Hay comedies Oh, Mr. Porter! and Good Morning, Boys (both 1937) and Hey! Hey! USA! (1938), the Arthur Askey vehicle Charley's (Big-Hearted) Aunt (1940), and The Man in Grey (1943) and *****by Gaslight (1944) for Gainsborough Pictures. [edit] Directing Crabtree continued his association with Gainsborough as he started his directorial career, beginning with the melodramatic fantasies Madonna of the Seven Moons, starring Phyllis Calvert and Stewart Granger in 1945 and Caravan in 1946. His last two films were Fiend Without a Face (1958) and Horrors of the Black Museum (1959), a sci-fi and horror, respectively, both of which have become cult favourites, although the former enjoys a better critical reputation.

starring Phyllis Calvert and Stewart Granger.
Actually spoke to Stewart Granger briefly in 1980ish, he was appearing at the famous Alhambra in Bradford, and was staying at the Victoria Hotel in Bradford where I tippled regularly at the time. A grumpy pld beggar but a big star. |

Crikey - fantastic.
Man In Grey and $£**8 By Gaslight. My neighbour - an old lady just down the road - asked me if I could get her a copy of Man In Grey - with James Mason?? - last year. I wonder if Arthur Crabtree ever worked with Sandy "Can you hear me mother" Powell. |
|
By:
Blimey Vel, you sound almost as old as me.
|
|
By:
Grainger was married to the lovely Jean Simmons, the swine. Even I, as CHANDICO, have rarely pulled a bird like that.
|
|
By:
Sandy and Arthur were born in the same year, but I think the connection ends there.
|
|
By:
Don't call me OLD, Mitchell - it will hurt the brand name.
|
|
By:
Jean was (still alive I think) almost as gorgeous as my current Polish chick.
|
|
By:
Apparently, she is very glad of the attention. If you write a fan letter, Jean Simmons will personally write back.
As CHANDICO, I'd like to see her in the jungle, doing bushtucker trials. But that doesn't make me a bad person. |
|
By:
wanting jean simmons to eat a bucket load of bugs and insects doesn't exactly make you Father Christmas either :D
|
|
By:
Obviously, as Arthur Crabtree, I'm mortified at the thought of a genteel old lady sufferin' like that...and I'd expect Joe Bugner to eat sh1t instead.
|
|
By:
Or the gays.
Whatever. |
|
By:
I like that record btw
Oh, my CHANDICO We could make it together The further from here, girl, the better Where the air is fresh and clean |
|
By:
Whit?? I thought I'd made up an original name reflecting my Chinese and Hispanic roots...but you're telling me it's from a crappy pop song??
|
|
By:
oh yes
nothing glitzy about you CHANDICO :^0 |
|
By:
I must awayyyyyyyyyyyyyyy things to do :-)
|
|
By:
Sounds like Abba to me.
The stars that night Were shining bright, Chandico! |
|
By:
I'm not a bad person, Joe - I try my best. OK, I stuff socks down my pants before I hit the clubs, but if the public can't accept that, then feck 'em. I am a genuine lad wiv a good heart.
|
|
By:
Yeah - I, Arthur Crabtree have things to do, too - like make some old lady very very happy - GOODBYE.

A grumpy pld beggar but a big star. There was once a rumour that Stewart Granger was my real father. My mother (for want of a better word) used to work in Pinewood Studios. |
