That's half the problem GT ........... it's the friggin' doogooders generation that has led to their offspring (the youngsters) being totally confused as to what is reality, what is "freedom of choice" and what is (like Hubbard) just taking the p*ss

Here is teh article from Wikipedia and I was surprised, pages and pages of atheletes suspended for doping , trafsusions etc I am sure if one wanted to take the time they would find people such as Flo JO who doped and had children also

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_d ... _athletics

There was a particular even at the 1988 Olympics, where an individual did test positive for anabolic steroids (stanozolol) and he was a male sprinter. Six out of the 8 competitors in that same event, tested positive for something and some were big names. The IOC were testing at those games, according to this.

F J was tested during these Olympic games and did not test positive, like a number of others did. Nor did F J test positive in the 11 No. test that she undertook in the 10 months, leading up to those Games.

Doodoo, you can suspect all you want and make your wild assertions, but personally, I find it rather pathetic, that 30 years after the event and with no proof, all you can do, is refer to is a Wikipedia Link that goes nowhere. Pretty sad on your behalf. [-X [-X

According to her autopsy, she had an epileptic seizure (not uncommon) which resulted in her suffocation. Maybe Doodoo, you would like to give us the benefit of your medical prowess, on this aspect, as well. :confused: :-k

Off topic I know, but the OG have finished

Most of the "camp" comedians of yesteryear (those who acted the part) wouldn't get away with any of their act today.

Julian Clary, Duncan (chase me) Norvelle, Kenneth Williams, Edna Everage etc would have their act ripped to pieces by the PC brigade....... we would also have lost a huge amount of the Dick Emery show, Two Ronnies, Monty Python, Les Dawson and a host of other comic genius because it might "offend someone"

Just coz someone calls me old/fat/wrinkled/soft/white/Bald or any other derogatory phrase isnt gonna make me have a nervous breakdown unless I were already well unhinged, so perhaps a few of todays "offended of Clapham" individuals should remember the old saying Sticks and stones may break my bones, but words are ....... just that ..... words

What will make you have a nervous breakdown? It is interesting to know that you are old, fat, wrinkled, soft and bald. Do you cheer for Leeds United by any chance?

The Olympics may be over but as a major sporting event screened worldwide they have proved to be a catalyst for these confused transgenders Hubbards to lubricate and slip easily into the frame .. for sure there will be thousands of these freakos now thinking they will try to do the same so expect tranny participant numbers to increase 10 fold come Paris FRANCE in 2024.

IMO its just the IOC (yes GT ) trying to not only appeal to the young but also the PC brigade who are gradually gaining momentum in changing the world with their wuss packet agenda , its a worry what sort of Boo Hoo generation is being created and just how long can we keep this thread going on UM :roll: and where will it end.

History counts for nothing , the brilliant comedians and TV shows series ( Love Thy Neighbor , Rising Damp more recently Little Britain )and movies from the past now banned , signs on toilet doors (sexist) and food packaging (racist) , banter , name calling is now all so terribly upsetting and discriminating theres more you cant say then can say its ridiculous and getting worse as the wafer thinned skinned lefty whinging snowflakes complain everything is sexist or racist .. i have one final word for all of them

BOLLOCKS (can i say that)

I need a STRONG BLACK coffee in my mug with a topless page 3 lady on it (Gaynor Goodman) ..remember those ????

How many trans athletes were in Tokyo? Two? Twenty for Paris? I think there will be fewer than twenty.

I think young people are cool. I like their energy level. They don't have to have the same values as us old goats. I hope OFFENDED of Udon can cope with me using that moniker.

Im predicting between 10 -20 confused lardies in Paris... competing in female team events , weightlifting ..maybe even a straggler in the long distance running , shot put javelin etc.

From personal experience I know what its like to be a youngster , I USED TO BE ONE ... yes the energy was there but worryingly so was the tendency to be easily led .... like the time my older brother n his mates bought a blow up doll and got me to have ago on it in the barn .. then during the foreplay the bastards nicked my clothes n left me naked .. i had to climb in a tatty sack to get home, im not scared for life tho just a memory i can smile about now...

(BTW i got him back a few times when i super glued the top on his hair gel , pissed in his shampoo and put mouse droppings in his sandwich.)..ar the good old days :lol:

MEMORIES from the past .... a great thread topic ??

Past younger generations (not so much mine) have had to cope with and real catastrophes, during their upbringing, such as be WW2 and before that, the Great Depression, as did their parents. These were real uncertain times and events. Yet those generations managed to get through it. Covid-19 may be a significant event, but it is hardly a catastrophic one, compared to some in the 19th Century.

Interestingly some of the current younger generation, aged between 15 and 30, have trouble staying at home in their house/room for a 2 week lockdown or even wearing a mask or working out what sex they are. We will see where this younger generation ends up. Well, maybe not :-k :-k

So, as you wander in your reverie of better times when "Up Pompeii" was cool, you won't begrudge the current younger generation's obsession with drag queens, presenting as non-binary and other overt symbols of being 'bent'?

The clear difference between Up Pompeii, carry on films, Benny Hill etc is the fact that it is comedy/entertainment and not meant to be taken seriously. The likes of Hubbard whos mother obviously went to the cupboard for his boner and found it bare expect society to take them seriously. As it happens I also had no problem with the Black & white minstrel show, Al Jolson or one of my gt gt cousins (who was half of a successful music hall act called the black guy Minstrels in the mid 19th cent), Alf Garnett or the characters in Love thy neighbour, they were entertainment

Typical bloody PC pain in the ar*es "who was half of a successful music hall act called the black guy Minstrels in the mid 19th cent"

I typed "who was half of a successful music hall act called the N I G G E R minstrels in the mid 19th cent) ....... That is what they were called, that is what the adverts said ..... stop auto correcting reality on our behalf

Not racist or transphobic but seeing as 70’s sitcoms are being listed, The Good Life. Felicity Kendall was sweetly pretty.

I see a number of old faithfulls from the 60s and 70s named above - enjoyed, in part or full, at the time by many of us now silly old farts.

I wonder how they have survived the test of time, and what degree of appeal they would have with today's youngsters. Perhaps best watched on a black and white telly to get the full experience.

I suspect the answer would not sit well - whichever way you look. :-k
