The Express probably assumed Barry Norman was Barry Cryer's alter ego without the spectacles. Like Clark Kent and Superman.

And why not?

i wonder if you replayed his critiques of the films in the seventies,
would they stand up? because the crud they make today gets five stars from
every newspaper across the board. even bad films in the seventies stand up as good next to the crappola they pump out now.

I expect like all of us he had his ups and downs but from the outside looking in he had a nice life and as he went in his sleep a nice passing. I wouldn't mind sitting on my bum watching films although Moonlight was a chore Mischief Like any death always sad for those left behind, my thoughts are with his family Sad

they said he hosted the bbc film review for 23 years?

that leaves 60 years - what else can you tells us about your past
employee bbc news? is it worth a mention?

i know he wrote books and was on a newspaper? but that's all?
how about spending two minutes to tell us something we don't know?
