Antone who can hold court with the queen, in the same manner as a local down the pub is filled with class, and he was.

Who the feck is Antone? A French waiter?

Yes he was pretty much permanately pickled but a very good actor indeed and a true great Briton. I'm not saying use him as a role model for the youth of today but by Christ he nailed absolutely shed loads of fillies. If Ollie was a racehorse appropriately enough he would be Saddlers Wells I would say.

He would make Saddlers Wells look like Zodiaz slippy....
1.01 he covered far more mares than Saddlers ![]() |

It's tragic that such a talented and intelligent man was reduced to something to make people cringe and laugh at imo.

Ollie used to turn up regularly at a working men's club near me in Donny. Nobody had a bad word to say about him. Generous to a fault and great to be around.
