New Posts For Thread: Max Bygraves...the actor..1961https://community.betfair.com/horse_racing/go/thread/view/94102/31817945/max-bygravesthe-actor1961Just noticed this is on Youtube - 1961 film Spare the Rod.Max is a teacher and a young Richard O'Sullivan is featured as well.Think I'll give it a look...https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ul8qFe0vG6sAs noted earlier, that film was basically the end of Max's acting career. It's not just the Guardian. If there are any Bygraves fans about, perhaps they can check his memoirs or biographies to see what the man himself said.From Wikipedia:-Bless 'Em Ahttps://community.betfair.com/horse_racing/go/thread/view/94102/31817945/max-bygravesthe-actor1961?post_id=563476009#563476009As noted earlier, that film was basically the end of Max's acting career.
