Very possibly the worst group the U.K. has ever produced....though I was shocked to hear he was 65, thought they were a bit younger tbh.....

Coming from North Edinburgh as I do I've heard all the stories about BCR and their pervert of a manager. The media up here are all over this latest news and the most used phrase is "it was fun". Yeah, fun if you find men exploiting children (and their fans) fun.

The world and its wife could name the other two.

Think he was more well known than that, Tommy. Credit where it's due, one of the original astronauts.
