You half expect to see Mrs Carrington in shot, bringing Des in his cocoa. That's if there is a Mrs C of course. _________________ His name was ernie ........ and he drove the fastest milk cart in the west..... |

Well, the earliest film I have seen that features Desmond was from about 1943 in which the danger of young ladies contracting VD from GI's or other men in affairs (while hubby was at war) is 'explained'.
The funny thing is, and it's hilarious, the following words do not appear in the script: sex, intercourse, VD, disease, or any words for sexual organs.
The story and dialogue is created with phrases like 'you know, what we did....' 'when we were together last night....' 'it's because of what we did....' with a few nods and winks added. (Know what I mean nudge nudge Say no more! )

I always thought he might be gay, not that I have an issue with that. Desmond Carrington appeals to a broad audience just like a lot of Radio 2 presenters do. Paul Gambaccini is gay and one of the most popular broadcasters in the country. It came as a bit of a shock to me when I learened about his sexuality, though, but like I say, I have no major issue with gay and lesbian people.
We should all be able to live in unity. |

I suppose the webcam has to be positioned so you dont see the other horrid walls |

Whoa! Hold your horses. I never said anything about him being gay or straight. I have no idea about this and certainly don't want to start a rumour!

Ian,
I didn't insinuate that you said Desmond Carrington might be gay - I did! Even if he is gay, it wouldn't bother me. I've never had an issue with gay/lesbian people; they're all human beings like the rest of us! |

His web cam used to show his studio in Perthshire... and for the time he wasn't on it showed the view of the hills around his home. _________________ I may not always be right
