RE: WHO IS THIS


Hi Ralph are you referring to Sgt Andrew Russell? Yes it is a sad story.

Sheba it is not Carol Burns. Now this will probably give it away she was considered a sex symbol on TV in her day.

You win the prize Jack over to you for a pic. She doesn't look happy in that pic, she and her husband had been flooded out and they were squatting for a while in an unused church that had few facilities while things were being sorted at their home and the media played it up saying they were destitute. I think that pic might have been from that and taken without her concent.

TV star flood victim Abigail rejects pity

FORMER star Abigail Rogan admits her life is in dire straits but she is "not a sob story".

With her home damaged by January's floods, Abigail and husband Adrian Wright live in a Sunday school hall in Coonooer Bridge, south of St Arnaud.

The tiny digs, without hot water or power, are a long way from the highs Abigail enjoyed at the top of Australian TV.

Last night she told a TV network her home was recently flooded three times.

"The police found some of my belongings miles away. We have insurance and it's all been taken care of," she said.

"When one is in dire straits in life, one doesn't want to talk about it."

Police parked near Abigail's home yesterday told the Herald Sun the couple were unhappy about TV cameras being shoved in their faces.

Their refuge, attached to the main church building, is near Abigail's modest house, which is being cleared of flood debris.

St Arnaud locals have known of their famous neighbour for years.

Alison Darby said: "I don't think she is very well and he does care for her."

You've got him Relax-n over to you for a pic.

Jimmy Hannan (25 August 1934 7 January 2019) was an Australian radio and television personality, variety show host, singer, entertainer and game show host of the 1960s and 1970s. One of the pioneers of television, he appeared regularly on variety show In Melbourne Tonight, and later hosted his own musical variety show Jimmy, later called Tonight with Jimmy Hannan.[1] Hannan hosted music show Saturday Date from 1963 until 1967, which featured such performers as Billy Thorpe and Olivia Newton-John. He won the 1965 Gold Logie award for most popular personality on Australian television.[2]

Early life and career

Hannan had his start musically performing in a big-band. As a teen idol, he often performed with people such as Johnny Devlin and Little Pattie. He released the single "Beach Ball", originally recorded by the City Surfers, in 1963. The song was written by Roger McGuinn who went on to become a member of the Byrds. The single reached number No. 2 on the local charts and featured the Bee Gees as backing vocalists.[2] He worked on radio in Melbourne at 3UZ. He hosted game shows including Name That Tune and Celebrity Squares.

Personal life

Hannan was married to Joanne Goode and had four children, including actress and model Melissa Hannan who won the Miss Australia title in 1981 and was also in the Miss World competition held in London. He retired from show business at 50 in 1984, and died on 7 January 2019, aged 81, from cancer in Bellingen, New South Wales.[3]

Sorry Sheba my first impression of them was that they were criminals and they don't look happy so I googled "three men,life prisoners" and looked at images and there they were I'm part way through reading about them I guess they aged them with computer imagery. They are brothers John and Clarence Anglin and fellow inmate Frank Morris who escaped from Alcatraz

EDIT: I have finally worked out how to make a link active

Why did I think it was difficult ????

You're right of course Sandy.   Who do we look for now ?

The June 1962 Alcatraz escape was a prison break from Alcatraz Federal Penitentiary, a maximum-security facility located on an island in San Francisco Bay, undertaken by inmates Frank Morris and brothers John and Clarence Anglin. The three men were able to escape from their cells and leave the island in a makeshift raft.

Can't remember which one, but one of the Anglin Bros. had the cheek to write a letter to the FBI not too long ago.
