[jasminkeenan]

Does anyone remember the one o clock gang, I'm trying to remember who apart from Larry Marshall was on it.

[anne]

Hi there, 2 other people are Dorothy Paul and Charlie Sim, does anyone know what happened to all 3 of them...

I am really interested to find out what happened to them, I remember my mum taking me to the scottish television studios to see this, it was one of the programmes I distinctly remember whilst growing up.
Charly Sim`was funny, thanks Anne for reminding me his name.

Dorothy Paul still does theatre work one of her best known tv performances was "The Steamie" also does one woman shows. Jimmy Nairn never hear of him now but his son is a very well known chef in glasgow, Charlie Simm now deceased (i think) never hear anything about Larry Marshall. The other lady on the show was Moira ??? cant remember her last name she played the keyboard and sang, think she was irish. Thats about all i can tell you

Moira Broidy, I think she went to Australia. Don't know what happened to the rest.

As Betty said Dorothy Paul does One Woman Show's. I have some of her video's and they are very good. One of them show's Charlie Sim in the audience.

The One o'clock Gang took a lot of stick but everyone always watched it, especially on a Friday when they did their School Act.

being exaggerated...or am I on the wrong twack?

Getting back to the one o'clock gang..the chap who played guitar was Ronnie Moore..can't remember any others.

Huh memories:
All I remember of the one o'clock gang is the school scene, and the "nana for samuel" the guy whom ever it was played the part in the schoolboy shorts with the little cap on his head, he always brought a banana to school.

Does anyone remember the day stv tecnitions went on strike. they had to do the show out in the yard, and the audence were all given fish suppers. I used to rush home very lunchtime from work to watch it, then they changed the showing time to 1.30pm, and i could"ent stay as i ha to get back to work. Larry Marshel wrote most of the scripts for all the shows. moira broidy went to australia, jimmy nairn went to south africa. yes sadly charlie sim hss passed away. !st.july.04. 2.24am.b.s.t.

It was really funny the one oclock gang and we did all love to watch it, it was great to hear your own accent on tv, it made a change from all those posh London accents. It meant that we existed after all. we must have we were on tv. gie that davyab44 a coconut Mark Twain indeed.

[dorcas]
