RIP but I suppose 90's not a bad age to go though,really.

I have fond memories of seeing his Amadeus (the night that Charles and Di got hitched) and Equus performed in London.

Also remember when I was at WHSB back in 1970, Geoffrey Winslow produced an excellent Royal Hunt of the Sun (complete with costumes from its London run).

My least favourite of the Shaffer twins by some distance if I'm being honest, but still a fine writer. RIP.

I like his sister Claudia.

That book he wrote called 'Shane' was good.

By coincidence, I heard today that GW died earlier this year.

The skinny Welsh fella with the big nose? If so, he was alright.

Very true, my Uncle passed away a month ago, and he was 93. There again an old mate who i'd known for 46 years, died on Monday aged 61.

Yes.Not so skinny, IIRC and rather swarthy.

Not in my book.Glad to say I never did a Maths lesson with him either!
