Blackpool summer season circa 1963 they could not afford a line up like this anymore. :D

Wow thanks for the picture Mark !!! there are so many faces that we recognise but so difficult to put a name to, but we can definitely see a Mr Matt Monro there :D ...Jimmy Edwards, Eric Morecambe, Ernie Wise, Cliff Richard, Bruce Welch, Terry Scott, Gerry Marsden. :D

I was just going to put Des & Jimmy Clitheroe but was beaten to it.
I think Freddy Garrity is there too? One lady looks like Hilda Ogden (Jean Alexander).

I've already listed them on facebook, but some others I think are Hank Marvin, David Whitfield, Peter Butterworth, Harry Corbett, Pinky and Perky, Marty Wilde, Jack Watling, and maybe Lonnie Donegan and Eden Kane.

Talkinf of David Whitfield has anyone seen his appearance on the Wheeltappers & Shunters dvd?

What a wonderful personality he had, I think that was the first time I ever saw him perform and I thought he was great - older but still a force to be reckoned with!
