I shall annoy @Riviera by posting it now whilst watching Quartet which I thought might have a few more contenders in the cast but they are all too young!
You’ll be brilliant on this thread in 40 years’ time, @LenGlover
Happy Birthday dear Bernard. A stalwart of British film, theatre and television. My favourite role of his is undoubtedly Mr. Hutchinson the spoons salesman.
Regards Mr Cribbens ; I sold him a pair of Clark’s NatureVelt in 1985 at the Peter Lord shop. I’m happy to confirm he wore shoes in the eighties
Just like London buses nothing for ages then two in quick succession.
Today we say Happy 90th Birthday to Len Deighton, author, who specialised in spy thrillers.
Funeral In Berlin and The Ipcress File were two of his novels that were made into films and Michael Caine (only 85) gave memorable performances in both as the 'hero' Harry Palmer.

Not forgetting The Billion Dollar Brain, the third novel in the series with the film adaption directed by Ken Russell.
World of Sport presenter Dickie Davies turned 90 on April 30th
Wikipedia says that he is 86. I can’t believe he’s 90. Mind you, I can’t believe that I’m an OAP.
There does seem to be some confusion online with some sources stating he was born in 1929. and others saying 1933. I suppose he will know which is correct! Need Chirpy to adjudicate!

Mohamed Al-Fayed born 27 January 1929.
Apparently she was asked if she was famous enough to make @Riviera 's list, but couldn't answer the question. This could be a close one.
