Urban Myths Thread..we've heard them all before but still....

Richard Hannon was the drummer in the Troggs

The car in Ben Hur.

The suicide in The Wizard of Oz

In the 90s, at several universities, there was a rumour that 'that was the pool table that Sarah Greene got banged on by the entire rugby team'.

Marianne Faithful likes Mars Bars.

That is Ken Barlow's REAL hair

Marianne Faithful actually has an account on here. Chris Eubank told her he really liked Kit-Kat and the rest is history.

That probably doesn't make sense really.

but its TOPICal

what an epic fail of a thread......

didnt quite go as planned did it Bon Divvy

The one about a female newsreader liking sex with younger men. The urban legend was that at a work party they hooked a young lad up with a mic and he went up to service her whilst the party turned up the mic and listened to the performance to be greeted with the classic "oh yes, oh yes, f&*k me until I fart"..this was parodied in a Brass Eye i think.

Theres the magician whose wife was filmed with a dog(in fact i've heard from a v good souce thats true actually)

then theres the sarah green gangbang at hull uni on the table defo myth,it was a mix of sarah having a rep for back door action and another girl being gangbanged but still a nice tale.

Two for me, the Sarah Greene one and the Richard Gere (plus Cindy Crawford too ?) Rodent tale.

My Hampsters just died

a swan can break your arm & a pike will have your hand off if you're not careful

stupid boy !!

The Richard Gere one was supposed to be in LA, but then I've heard also it was in the UK when he was filming "First Knight" in 1994/1995. Pretty sure there's no truth in it.

There is a condition called Blue Waffle. Yeah, right.

The Marc Almond one

The Jimmy Saville one

Lawley kazoo is a fantastic addition to the Profanisaurus

Francis Bacon wrote Shakespeare.....

Jamie Lee Curtis being a Haemaphrodite actually may have some truth as she's supposed to have had some op on her sex organ(s) as a kid,hence the urban legend i guess,i would regardless!

The one about The Great Suprendo and Victoria Wood

Una Stubbs and a coffee table

Marianne Faithfull and a Mars Bar

Peter Lilley and Michael Portillo

Joanna Lumley has a rubber nipsy due to the amount of cocaine she 'snorted' up there in the '60's!

Probably unheard of on here, but an old friend of mine went to a party in Essex many years ago and he reckons Billy Walker (the boxer for those who don't know him) was wearing mascara and eye shadow.

But, like MF and the mars bar, I still don't beleive it.

MrsForgiveNForget - and that Shapkespeare & Christopher Marlowe were one of the same of course.

Excellent!  MrsForgiveNForget and HH Sultan must have some evidence which the rest of the world has never seen.

Come on! Spill the beanos.

momm it's an urban myth thread so evidence shirley is not required.
But didn't you know Marlowe faked his own stabbing by a Millwall supporter in Deptford, to erase his identity and debts, only to reemerge as the future bard.

Don't you shirley me!
For something to be a bone fido urban myth then shirley the indisputable, uncontravertible truth MUST be known shirley, shirley?

good shouts on Shakespeare,not so much urban myths but if Francis Bacon or Marlowe DIDN'T contribue any works under the banner it would be remarakable indeed.

Has anyone mentioned Una Stuubs dropping a log on a coffee table for a young Roger Moore i think?

oops - *uncontrovertible

Sincere apologies for that monetary lapse of concentration.

The Sean Connery-Petula Clark one.

Wasn't he supposed to have been asked what the best s hag he'd ever had was and he replied something like "Petula Clark. 1964. Up the arse".

?

Lemmings do NOT commit suicide, the film was  engineered  from the 1950's that sees them committing suicide by running over the edge of a cliff.

The story (no actor named) appears in Richard E Grant's diary 'Withnails' - I can't remember when, but it might have been an urban myth doing the rounds when he was filming LA Story and doing film premiers in LA.

There's a good one about someone called eahc wya, being a "chit chat legend", because he, erm... erm... mixes words up, and erm... erm... says lamp and lenny a lot, oh wait a minute.

a one legged ex wife was a lady of the night.

Walt Disney is frozen somewhere in suspended amnimation

There's also the one about Frankie Howerd using Bob Monkhouses hand to w@nk himself off,however Minkhouse admits the tale was true in his autobigraphy!

James "human ashtray" Dean liked to have **** stub **** out on his chest

Nancy Reagan gave best ****s in hollywood

The Nigella Lawson and onions softened in a little oil with finely sliced chorizo and haricot beans one, for me

The James Dean one is true,his autopsy report had the comments on about the burns and scarring on his chest,i don't even wanna think about the Nancy one!!

theres one in manchester about a very famous red haired singer and reknowned swordsman to boot who used to w@ank all comers off in an old victorian oxford st public toilet(laterly the temple bar)

Last time I go in there, the dirty red b@stard

diana spencer and jemima goldsmith are/were half-sisters

that'll probably earn me a ban!
