Gabrial Drake on the Two Ronnies

Hi,

Just watching the Two Ronnies on UKTV Gold and saw Gabrial Drake in one of
the comedy sketches.

Regards
Keith

That's interesting Keith. I take it that this is a repeat of a old show?
Anymore details of the sketch?

Thanks,
James K.

Yes, it is a repeat. (forgot to mention that !)

The sketch was a period piece around 1900 and Gabrial was wearing a dress
from that period.

Not sure what it was about as I was on the PC at the time and looked up when
I heard a familiar voice !

I have just noticed 'Dr Jackson' in the credits to a film just started on
BBC2 - 'Mosquito Squadron'

Thanks Keith for the info on the Two Ronnies.

You might have also noticed Suzanne Neve aka Mary Straker in Mosquito
Squadron credits too.

Suzanne Neve who played Straker's wife has a prominent role in
Mosquito Squadron.

U.N.C.L.E. fans love that film because of the David McCallum presence. I
thought the film was slow, dry and kinds boring.

And, appropriate to teh season, I just noticed teh other day that she
played Isabelle Fezziwig, young Ebenezer Scroohge's true love, in the
1970 musical "Scrooge," starring Albert Finney.

So, in "Scrooge," she plays the woman that the main character really
loves, who leaves him because of his obsessive devotion to his work.

On the other hand, in "UFO," she plays the woman that the main character
really loves, who leaves him because of his obsessive devotion to his
work.
