HOTUN FILM CLIPS ON YOUTUBE

Pictured above at FRANK RANDLE's PLAQUE on Blackpool's North Pier are Tony Hilton who is Wigan's eminent historian, Chris Lee (Cuthbert) and Michael Leader, founder member of the Laurel and Hardy Appreciation Society and Eastenders' milkman!

Thanks to Lee and Val Mannering for organising, Paul Culkin for his presence and wonderful ukulele songs, playing and singing. Also thanks to the NORTH PIER for allowing the use of the Theatre lobby (above) and the BAR, also thanks to Juliette Gregson photgrapher extraordinaire! Photos courtesy of Tony 2 (who has gone fizzidelic!), Chris Carson, Tony Hilton, John Burscough and Mrs Cuthbert. Thanks also for coming all the way from Eastenders to Michael Leader, whose father was band leader Harold Leader and knew Frank.

Below are morning-time shots Frank Randle's graveside. Below right are photos from the afternoon-time Randlefest -

The day was a reet Hotun and a BIG thank you to everybody who came ...
